Bidding for school projects seems to be starting earlier and earlier each year. With shorter timeframes and stress on the supply chain, it may be better to work ahead this season rather than having to do make-up work. While there are many things to keep in mind, there are two major ones that will help you the most:
- Being up to date on the latest standards/guidelines
- Being prepared for your bid and next steps once it’s accepted
It can be tricky to keep up with all the standards/guidelines that apply to the projects you work on. We know it can feel as though they are being updated constantly in some form or fashion. Here are two ASHRAE standards to keep in mind when you tackle your upcoming retrofit or project:
With their last revisions being in 2019, these standards are tried and true when it comes to IAQ (indoor air quality) and ventilation overall.
Keeping those standards in mind, here’s a study guide to help you get an A+ on your next bid:
- Start planning for your bids now so you’re not caught unaware or unprepared
- Devise a checklist to keep track of bidding, sourcing, scheduling, and more
- Plan budgets and schedules so you stay on track and on time on the jobsite
- Check for the most recent standards and guidelines that apply to your bid
- Once you win the bid, source your parts immediately so your parts are waiting on you and not the other way around
