Sample Electrical Estimate Package
Wondering what you actually receive when MeTiger prices your project? This page walks through a sample electrical estimate package — the takeoff workbook, colour-coded marked-up drawings, material list, labour-hour summary, and scope-gap log that make our numbers reviewable line by line. Built for Canadian commercial and industrial contractors who need a bid they can defend, not a black-box total.
What the sample shows
The sample mirrors a real deliverable, so you can see exactly how our electrical takeoff and estimate hang together before you send us a project.
- Quantity takeoff workbook with counts organized by system
- Colour-coded marked-up drawings tied back to the count
- Material list broken out by system
- Labour-hour summary with the labour-unit basis
- Documented assumptions and exclusions
- RFI and scope-gap log for missing or conflicting items
- Bid summary bringing material and labour together
What is anonymized
A sample should show our format and discipline, never a real client's data. Before we share an example, we strip anything that could identify the project or expose pricing that isn't ours to give out.
- Project identity and job name removed
- Client and contractor names removed
- Site addresses and drawing title blocks blurred
- Proprietary and client-specific pricing removed or blurred
- Confidential specification details generalized
Sample estimate components
Each component in the package does a job. Together they let your team check the number instead of trusting it.
Takeoff workbook
A structured quantity takeoff with device, feeder, gear, and fixture counts grouped by system, so every line traces back to a drawing.
Marked-up drawings
Colour-coded plans where each counted item is highlighted, letting you audit coverage sheet by sheet against the takeoff.
Material list by system
Materials organized by service, distribution, power, lighting, and low-voltage, using Canadian market pricing assumptions.
Labour-hour summary
Labour-unit based estimating with project-specific labour assumptions and regional labour adjustment, shown so the basis is visible.
Assumptions & exclusions
A plain list of what is included, what is carried as an assumption, and what is explicitly out of scope — no silent guesses.
RFI & scope-gap log
Items that appear in one document but not another, equipment with no clear power source, and conflicts you can send to the design team.
Bid summary
A single reviewable summary rolling material and labour together, with alternates and value-engineering notes where they apply.
CEC-aware scope review
Scope review informed by CSA C22.1 / the Canadian Electrical Code, provincial practices, and the bid documents.
