Construction Quote Intelligence — Build & Review Estimates
Example session with this skill installed
Illustrative estimate: supplied measured area 100 m², material USD 12/m², approved waste allowance 10%, labor 0.4 hours/m² of installed area at USD 30/hour, equipment USD 200, fixed indirect cost USD 300. Apply 15% markup on direct plus indirect cost. Tax is unconfirmed. Show formulas, pre-tax total, markup versus margin, assumptions and review gaps. Do not add unknown fees or claim this is a firm quote.

Preliminary estimate
Calculated from supplied quantities, rates and approved waste assumption. Currency: USD. Tax treatment, project location, drawing revision, quote dates and validity are unknown. This is not a firm offer or certified takeoff.
| Component | Formula | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Material quantity with waste | 100 m² × 1.10 | 110 m² |
| Material | 110 m² × USD 12/m² | USD 1,320 |
| Labor | 100 m² × 0.4 hours/m² × USD 30/hour | USD 1,200 |
| Equipment | Supplied fixed amount | USD 200 |
| Direct cost | 1,320 + 1,200 + 200 | USD 2,720 |
| Indirect cost | Supplied fixed amount | USD 300 |
| Cost base | 2,720 + 300 | USD 3,020 |
| 15% markup | 3,020 × 0.15 | USD 453 |
| Pre-tax estimate | 3,020 + 453 | USD 3,473 |
Markup and margin
Markup is 15% of cost. The implied surplus before omitted costs is USD 453; 453 ÷ 3,473 × 100 = approximately 13.04% of price. Markup and margin are not interchangeable. No separate contingency was supplied or added, and the surplus is not guaranteed realized profit.
Measurement and scope assumptions
100 m² is user-supplied measured installed area, not independently taken from a drawing. Waste is applied to material only. Labor uses the supplied installed-area basis, producing 40 hours; it is not multiplied by material waste. Equipment and indirects are treated as the supplied fixed amounts. Scope boundaries, exclusions and whether labor includes burdens or supervision must be confirmed.
Review gaps
Tax: unknown, not assumed zero. Delivery, handling, storage, consumables, temporary works, testing, permits, escalation, subcontract scope and risk contingency: coverage unconfirmed. Confirm whether these are included in supplied rates before adding or excluding them to prevent double-counting. Verify units, measured area, document revision, rate source/date/region, procurement and quote validity.
Next actions
Estimator checks scope and arithmetic; project leadership confirms commercial markup and risk treatment; appropriate tax and technical reviewers confirm requirements. Update the versioned estimate with source references and explicit allowances. No quote was issued, order placed or final price approved.

About this skill
Understand what a project estimate really includes
Construction Quote Intelligence helps contractors, trades, estimators and owners organize scope, measurement basis, quantities and commercial inputs into clear estimates and comparisons.
It supports document/revision control, work breakdown structures, source-traceable takeoff assistance, unit normalization, labor/material/equipment cost build-ups, subcontract comparison, allowances, contingency, overhead, markup, taxes, alternatives and change-order review. With valid actual-cost inputs it can support variance and estimate calibration.
Outputs include scope matrices, estimate worksheets, quote-leveling tables, assumptions and exclusions, risk scenarios and bid review checklists. It distinguishes a supplier price from delivered installed cost and preserves uncertainty instead of inventing local rates or site conditions.
File, image and calculation features depend on host tools. Missing scale or unreadable plans mean quantities stay unverified. Qualified humans approve final estimates, technical matters and commercial decisions; the skill does not guarantee cost or profit.
