📝 Estimator's Field Note
"One thing I've learned from estimating across different markets: the local utility's service entrance requirements are never quite what you expect. We always call the utility engineering department before finalizing a bid in a new jurisdiction."
🔍 Scope Gap Warning
When taking over estimating from an in-house team, the first 2-3 projects always reveal scope assumptions that weren't documented. We do a 'scope alignment call' before the first estimate to surface these.

📦 Coordination Note from Our Team
Pre-bid site visits catch more scope gaps than any single drawing review. If the site visit reveals conditions not shown on the drawings, document them in the bid qualifications.
