When you're bidding large commercial

[Jeremy]

Do you ask for a floor plan & finish schedule? If not you're missing the boat. So much easier to make a copy, color code the areas by floor type & frequency so you can take a quick glance & have an idea of what's what. This will save you hours walking around measuring & get you out of their hair way faster. Plus you have the lay out for the whole building not just a rough sketch & a bunch of demensions.

What's all in the finish schedule?

 

[Jeremy]

What flooring types are where, wall coverings, ceiling height... Pretty much anything you want to know about the building. Cuold be great for you WDR gurus too.

We try to always get a map if only to see the best ways in and out of the building.

fire escape plan works as well!

Yeah, they 're good too. But the floor plan has exact dimensions & the finish schedule will tell you what is on the floor. So it has it's advantages.

We always ask for a floor plan for larger commercials. One thing we learnt from a bad experience is to do a physical measurement of an easily identifiable section so that we can check the scale. Even architects make mistakes :shock:
