SECTION 2 – EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
2.1 Project Description
Black Box Construction was presented with the opportunity to develop a bid proposal for
providing construction services for the Porters Neck Elementary School to be built in Wilmington,
NC. The project is a two storey 81,201 SF school.
The project delivery method for the project is Design-Bid-Build with a Single Prime Bid contract.
This report contains information on the project estimation, schedule, building system, cost
summaries, client information, project delivery system, and staffing organization.
The following items are required to be provided to the owner before commencement of
construction:
1. A bid for furnishing general contracting services that includes all labor, equipment,
materials, and subcontracting work for the complete scope of work as per the construction
documents provided.
2. A work breakdown structure of all the activities required to complete the project.
3. A list of activities with the quantities, productivity and estimated duration needed for the
completion of each activity required to complete the project.
4. A verifiable Activity on Node (AON) diagram that details the logic sequence of the entire
construction process.
5. A CPM schedule for the project to identify the critical path for the project.
6. A schedule of values, schedule of estimated payments and a cash flow that details the flow
of money throughout the duration of project.
7. Value engineering suggestions that could be beneficial for the owner.

2.2 Project Description:
One most important aspects of a construction project are to form an effective project team to
manage the construction project effectively. The decisions made by the project team towards the
management of the project ultimately impact the construction of the project. Effective management
ensures on-schedule and on-budget completion of the project which is crucial for any project.
At Black Box Construction, our team recognizes the importance of the Porters Neck Elementary
School project. The school is significant for the nearby community since will impact the
development of children of the community.
The team at Black Box Construction adopted the following process for the completion of the scope
of work of the project:
1. A detailed study of the construction documents and specification was carried out to
effectively plan the scope of work.
2. The team developed pricing for various items included in the scope of work by performing
detailed quantity take-offs for the self-performed work and by obtaining prices from sub-
contractors for the sub-contracted work.
3. A bid was prepared by incorporating the required company overhead, profit, and
contingency to the direct costs. A schedule of values was also concurrently developed.
4. The sub-contractor bids received had the sub-contractor general conditions listed as a
separate item. The general conditions were proportionally distributed among the activities
and the cost was adjusted for January 2017 (Refer to Appendix, )
5. Upon finalizing the cost estimate, the team started the development of a construction
schedule. A work breakdown structure was developed from which the activities were
logically laid out to obtain a construction schedule and the critical path for the project was
identified. The schedule was developed using Primavera P6.
6. After the schedule was developed, the team focused on developing the project cash flow.
The project cash flow is a representation of the expected inflow-outflow of money during
the execution of the project.
7. In the final stages of the process, value engineering alternatives were discussed and the
most beneficial suggestions were incorporated in the project manual subjected to the
approval of the owner/architect.

2.4 Closing Statement:
Black Box Construction is pleased to submit the bid proposal for general contracting services for
the Porters Neck Elementary School. Our team recognizes the objectives and significance of the
project and its impact on the future of the community.
Porters Neck Elementary School is a critical project for the development of the community and
the future of the children of the community. A project of such significance requires a contractor
who has prior experience in delivering similar projects and who is recognized for the quality of its
work. Black Box Construction has worked throughout North Carolina on a wide variety of
projects. More importantly, our team has prior experience of constructing public and institutional
buildings such as courthouses, libraries, and schools. Our previous school project, Davidson
Middle School located in Thomasville, NC was very similar in scope with the proposed project
and we believe that our experience from the project would be tremendously beneficial in the
successful delivery of the proposed project.
Our stellar past performance coupled with an extremely talented and dedicated core team makes
us one of the frontrunners for this project. At Black Box Construction, we always put our customers
first. Customer Satisfaction and Relationships has always been the priority for the company.
We hope that our bid proposal meets your expectations and we look forward to the opportunity to
present our work and highlight our project management approach for the project

SECTION 3 - ESTIMATE
3.1 Rough Order of Magnitude Estimate
A rough order of magnitude estimate is used to provide an approximate value of final construction.
It is much easier and faster to arrive upon when compared to detailed estimates and is typically
used in the conceptual phase, to determine project feasibility. Its accuracy is around ±20% as
compared to detailed estimate.
The RS Means Building Construction Cost database provides us with data to calculate ROM for
typical building construction in the United States of America. It correlated 4 different factors with
the built-up space and does not include the cost of land, A/E fee and other supplemental. These
factors essentially include quality of construction, size of built up area, project location and time
of construction. It is important to include all these factors to arrive upon the ROM to customize
the costs for our project. RS Means costs are based on a typical size project on an average city in
the US.
The following process with direct us through determining ROM for our project
The following parameters have been identified from the bid documents and will enable us to
arrive upon the ROM.
Parameter Constraint
Construction Size 81,201 sq. ft.
Quality High (Includes Site Work & Equipment)
Location Wilmington, NC
Time of Construction January 2017
Quality Factor
Size Factor
Location Factor
Time Factor
ROM Value

Using RS Means data,
Per sq. ft. cost of construction:
Per sq. ft. cost for “high” quality construction for Elementary School from RS Means is $172
Size modifier:
Typical size of an elementary school from RS Means is 41,000 sq. ft.
The proposed building area is 80,201 sq. ft.
Size factor = Proposed building area / Typical Size
Size factor = 81,201 sq. ft. / 41,000 sq. ft.
Size factor = 1.98
The size modifier (cost multiplier) for the size factor of 1.98 as per the cost modifier curve
is 0.95
Location modifier
Wilmington City Cost Index = 81.0
Location modifier, Wilmington = (City Cost Index Wilmington)/ (Average city USA cost index)
= 81.0 / 100
= 0.81
The location modifier for Wilmington, NC is equal to 0.81
Time modifier
Using data from ENR over RS Means for higher accuracy, the time modifier for January 2017
has been derived as follows:
May 2016 = 5,637
June 2016 = 5,636;
July 2016 = 5,660;
Aug 2016 = 5,670;
∆ Average = 11
January 2017 = July 2016 + 6 * 11
January 2017 = 5726
∆ = -1
∆ = 24
∆ = 10

Time modifier = January 2017 Index / January 2015 Index
Time modifier = 5726/5497
Time modifier = 1.04
The time modifier to adjust cost for October 2016 is equal to 1.04
ROM = Size of the building (sq. ft.) * Per square feet cost * location modifier * Size modifier *
Time modifier
ROM = 81,201 sq. ft. * $172 * 0.81 * 0.95 * 1.04
ROM = $ 11, 177, 168
Rough Order Magnitude Estimate
1 Square footage of building (sq. ft.) 81,201
2 Per sq ft. cost ($/sq ft) $172
3 Location Modifier 0.81
4 Size Modifier 0.95
5 Time Modifier 1.04
Total ROM $11,177,168
From the above calculations, the rough order magnitude estimate for the proposed school
building is $11,177,168.
