Hi all,

Is it technically correct not to put manpower unit in the schedule in a lump sum cost contract.

    Hi Ulysses,

    In most of the cases: Yes, because you are just interested in the result, not in the manpower the the contractor needs.
    But there are exceptions, where you need/want to know labour units, e.g. how many persons will be within the construction area at a time or simply to check if a contractor’s planning is realistic.
    Regards
    Dieter
