Instructor: Keith Rahn

In this unique business environment for Mechanical Contractors, the ability to work with clients in the early stages of the design process is important. Contractors that assist clients with budgeting and value engineering ideas will lead to more negotiated contracts for their company. Negotiated work
for contractors is essential in this very competitive market. Mechanical Contractors need a strong understanding past project cost and their company’s productivity on installation is critical in developing a conceptual estimate. This course will focus on key aspects of putting together mechanical work budgets in the early stages in design, building a relationship with the client, securing the contract and providing owners with budgets during the construction of the project.
