We are a new to Aspire company - We have always operated on industry standard prices per square foot to estimate - and are now having a hard time figuring out industry standard production rates (How many sq ft of sod an individual can lay in an hour, etc.) for the Aspire buildout - as well as markup % for our various divisions. 


Anyone willing to share theirs to give us a starting point? For reference - we are roughly a 5 mil company in the Southeast US.

 

Thanks in advance!

Aleka,

We are also in the southeast and a little smaller than you.  We have tweaked these over the course of a decade so I’m pretty confident they are a good starting point for you.

For M/U’s we use Labor - 128%, Material - 76%, Equipment, Sub and other - 32%

Good luck.
