hey guys,
i am uploading a picture of the draw inspection report form that i am going to use for this company. my question is, what do the second and third columns figures mean ? the columns in question are Total and % ?? are they samples of previous data ? i thought when they asked for percentage of work done, that would be just it.., a percentage on each item. but now this has me wondering. thanks for your help kevin rea |

Each completed item represents a portion of the total completion of the build.
When Stage 1 is 100% complete, this represents 23% completion of the entire project. Stages are broken down into line items so that portions of other stages can be calculated, even if a particular stage has not been completed. Does that make sense?

hi Jeff.,
it kind of makes sense. so, under each line item, do i put the percentage of completion up to 100%, or only up to the number quoted in the Total or % column ? like on line one, for site preparation, the first column is 4 and then the second column under % is also 4., does that mean that site preparation is 100 % complete ? let's take another line.. under floor framing/slab/basement: the first column is 23 and the second column is 5, does that mean that it is 21% complete ? kevin Last edited by krea; 10/19/06 at 1:31 PM.. |

If Site Prep is 100% complete, that is the percentage you enter into column 1 (100%). This makes the total job completion 4%.
Now lets say (for example) these items are also 100% complete; Windows Rough-in HVAC Drywall/plaster Counter tops Obviously, other items would need to be completed in order to have these, but this is just an example. 100% of Site Prep = 4% 100% of Windows = 4% 100% of Rough-in HVAC = 1% 100% of Drywall/plaster = 3% 100% of Counter tops = 1% Making the total job completion 13% Now let's add bits and peices; 50% of OS Wall Framing = 3-1/2% 50% of IS Wall Framing = 3% Typically, round numbers are fine, so you would add another 7% bringing the total job completion to 20% It's really simple once it clicks.

That's correct.
They're looking for the percentage complete at each particular line item, so they can pay on that item. For instance, if the drywall budget is $35,000, and it is 70% complete (based on your input), they will pay $24,500.
