Proposal + Clarifications & Exclusions
A proposal that protects your number, with the clarifications and exclusions already written.
Your price is only as good as the scope letter behind it. This proposal package fills in a clean, client-ready electrical proposal (letterhead, documents, scope, base bid with breakouts, allowances, alternates, unit prices, schedule assumptions, validity, and an acceptance block) and attaches Clarifications and Exclusions pages built from an original library of more than 110 items written by a working estimator. Mark Y next to what applies; they print numbered, in order, with no gaps.

Questions
How do I get the files?
Checkout runs through Gumroad. Right after you pay, you get a download link on screen and by email. Nothing ships.
Do they work in Google Sheets?
Yes. Upload the .xlsx to Google Drive and open it with Google Sheets. Formulas, dropdowns, and colors carry over. No macros are used anywhere, so there's nothing to enable.
Are the labor units and rates filled in?
No, and on purpose. Every rate, factor, and markup is a clearly labeled placeholder you replace with your own. Your numbers stay yours.
What if something doesn't work?
Email helloscottcox@gmail.com and I'll fix it or make it right.
Is this engineering or legal advice?
No. These are estimating tools. You're responsible for verifying quantities, pricing, labor, and code compliance.
