FAQ
Clear scope before the work starts.
What should we send?
Send the plan set, the exact LBM scope, intended deliverables, a required delivery date, and either a plan upload or plan-file link.
Can the report follow our quoting structure?
Report structure and catalog or SKU alignment can be defined when expressly agreed for the project.
How is timing handled?
Timing is confirmed with the project scope and proposal rather than promised as a fixed sitewide turnaround.
Who completes the final quote?
Your sales team retains product pricing, customer communication, and the final quote. EstDept provides agreed-scope takeoff capacity and reviewable files.
