Audited planning profile

This shared daily profile applies a 3× editable baseline across 1 model period to the solar installation buffer model.

USE THIS PROFILE TO

Create an early quantity, budget or capacity check before requesting supplier or contractor quotes.

DECISION RULE

Use the buffered result for planning and the unbuffered result as the transparent baseline. Define a consistent allocation rule so shared usage is not counted twice. Use a typical day and separately test peak or exceptional days.

NOT INCLUDED

Permits, local labor rates, material specifications, site conditions and professional engineering review are excluded.

VERIFY BEFORE ACTING

Verify dimensions, specifications, waste factors and current supplier or contractor quotes.
