Basis of Costs – Costs included below are construction costs (Bid Costs) and
do not include soft costs, construction contingencies, FFE and the like. Bid
prices vary depending on site conditions, required site work, complexity,
quality, size, schedule and many other factors but most importantly the market
activity at the time of bid. Costs shown are averages and tempered by current
market conditions.
Costs are also preliminary and are averages from across the state within
varying economic zones, schedule constraints, quality standards and many
other factors. See attached Dept. of Education cost data used as a resource.
