Construction Bidding Software – Streamlining Estimating Takeoff
Tumblr media
The accuracy and efficiency of estimating takeoff can be a game-changer for contractors. One critical pain point contractors face is the sheer amount of time and effort involved in the bidding process. Manual takeoffs and estimations can be prone to human error, leading to costly mistakes. Construction Bidding Software simplifies this process by automating various tasks, significantly reducing the time taken for takeoffs and estimates.

U.S. Recount Updates/News:
Pennsylvania's U.S. Senate race will officially go to a recount. GOP candidate David McCormick is leading incumbent Democratic Sen. Bob Casey by less than 0.5% in the vote total, triggering an automatic recount under state law.
Tumblr media
Furthermore,
Election and cybersecurity experts sent a formal letter to Vice President Kamala Harris urging a recount in key states, citing potential breaches in voting machines and the fact that voting systems were breached by Trump allies in 2021 and 2022.

Additionally,
The Nevada Secretary of State issued a violation notice regarding election security. A police report has been filed after evidence emerged indicating that Nevada officials may have removed 26,902 ballots from their reported mail-in ballot totals.
Tumblr media
[ID:
Three images.
The first is a statement regarding a recount being triggered in the Pennsylvania Senate race. It reads:
“Unofficial Results in U.S. Senate Race Trigger Legally Required Automatic State Recount
Harrisburg, PA — Secretary of the Commonwealth Al Schmidt announced today that unofficial results in the Nov. 5 general election race for U.S.
Senate have triggered a legally required statewide recount.
Senator Bob Casey and Dave McCormick have vote totals within the one-half of 1 percent margin that triggers a mandatory recount under state law.
As of today, the unofficial returns for the U.S. Senate race submitted by all 67 counties show the following results for the top two candidates:
Robert P. Casey Jr. - 3,350,972 (48.50%)
David H. McCormick - 3,380,310 (48.93%)
Once counties finish counting their ballots, they must begin the recount no later than Wednesday, Nov. 20. They must complete the recount by noon on Nov. 26 and must report results to the Secretary by noon on Nov. 27. Results of the recount will not be published until Nov. 27.
The Department estimates that the recount cost will exceed $1 million of taxpayer funds.
This is the eighth time the automatic recount provision has been triggered since the passage of Act 97 of 2004. In the four cases in which the recount was carried out, the initial results of the election were affirmed. Those recounts and the costs for each were as follows:
2022 primary: Oz vs. McCormick, Republican race for U.S. Senate, $1,052,609.
2021 general: Dumas vs. Crompton, Commonwealth Court, $1,117,180.
2011 primary: Boockvar vs. Ernsberger, Democratic race for Commonwealth Court, $525,006.70.
2009 general: Lazarus vs. Colville vs. Smith, Superior Court race, $541,698.56.
For more information about the legally mandated automatic recount procedures, see the Department's directive on this topic (link.mediaoutreach.meltwater.com).
Update on outstanding ballot totals
As of this afternoon, county election officials reported there are 60,366 uncounted provisional ballots and 20,155 uncounted mail-in and absentee ballots. That 80,521 total includes all ballots for which county boards of elections have not yet made a final resolution regarding their validity or eligibility to be counted.
As of the issuance of this release, the Department's election returns page [link.mediaoutreach.meltwater.com] reflects the unofficial totals that counties have reported. These numbers will change beginning Thursday morning, Nov. 14, as counties continue to canvass provisional ballots and otherwise count ballots. These changes are unrelated to the recount.”
The second image depicts the first page of a formal letter addressed to Vice President Kamala Harris from election security experts urging an election recount in key states. It reads:
“November 13, 2024
The Honorable Kamala Harris
The White House
Office of the Vice President
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N. W.
Washington, DC 20500
Dear Vice President Harris,
We write to alert you to serious election security breaches that have threatened the security and integrity of the 2024 elections, and to identify ways to ensure that the will of the voters is reflected and that voters should have confidence in the result. The most effective manner of doing so is through targeted recounts requested by the candidate. In the light of the breaches we ask that you formally request hand recounts in at least the states of Michigan, Nevada, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. We have no evidence that the outcomes of the elections in those states were actually compromised as a result of the security breaches, and we are not suggesting that they were. But binding risk-limiting audits (RLAs) or hand recounts should be routine for all elections, especially when the stakes are high and the results are close. We believe that, under the current circumstances when massive software breaches are known and documented, recounts are necessary and appropriate to remove all potential doubt and to set an example for security best practices in all elections.
In 2022, records, video camera footage, and deposition testimony produced in a civil case in Georgia' disclosed that its voting system, used statewide, had been breached over multiple days by operatives hired by attorneys for Donald Trump. The evidence showed that the operatives made copies of the software”
(The page cuts off here).
Below there are footnotes with cited evidence for grounds to request a recount.
“No. 17-cv-02989-AT (N.D. Ga. filed Aug. 8, 2017).

Please Start Archiving in the US
With current events, I think it is prudent that everyone, that is able to, needs start archiving shit. I am a former library worker but I do not know much about cybersecurity. If you do want to go down that route please research and keep you and your archive safe :). The more copies that are preserved, then the more likely it is that the media will survive. Even if you save only 2 files that is still important!
First, I will list how to create an computer archive and best practices, then I will provide a list of known targets and suggested materials to add.
You need somewhere to store your data most people will use their computer's storage drive but you need to have backups! Do not rely on cloud storage solutions, they require internet connection are vulnerable to data breaches, and the companies that store that data must follow any laws that the government may decide to pass. USBs or external hardrives are best options. CDs can be used in a pinch, but are more likely to degrade as well as having lower storage capacity then the previous options. Use whatever you have lying around, you do not need to spend money if you don't want to.
When saving data use file formats that are common and able to be read without use of a special software. (that means no .docx) PDF/A is the gold standard for archiving. It is a subtype of pdf that contains metadata, such as typefaces and graphical info, that ensure the files are read properly in the future. Adobe Acrobat is able to save and convert documents into PDF/A. PDFTron, DocuPub, and Ghostscript are all free or have free versions that create pdf/a files. PNG, JPEG2000, .txt, MP3, wav, are other common file types that the Smithsonian recommends for data storage. For a full list of types to use and avoid, see the sources cited at the bottom.
What are we archiving?
Please gather both fiction and nonfiction resources. Nonfiction collection ideas: Current news clips, local history of marginalized communities, interviews, biographies, memoirs, zines, and art pieces. Saving scientific research is incredibly important! In 1933, one of the first places they targeted was the Institute of Sexual Science. Lots of what was stored there was never recovered. Environmental science, trans and intersex health, and minority history will likely be targeted first. For fiction, the most commonly challenged books last year were: 1) GenderQueer by Maia Kobabe 2) All Boys Aren't Blue by George Johnson 3) This Book is Gay by Juno Dawson 4) The of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky 5) Flamer by Mike Curato 6) The Bluest Eyes by Toni Morrison 7) Me and Earl and the Dying Girl by Jesse Andrews 8) Tricks by Ellen Hopkins 9) Let's Talk about it (Teen guide to sex, relationships, and being a human) by Erika Moen and Matthew Nolan 10) Sold by Patricia McCormick I present this list so you have an idea of what is normally targeted. Books that describe racism and queer identities are most common, but other targets include any depictions of violence, drugs, sex. Use your personal archive to accumulate data that you personally are passionate about. The more niche a topic the more likely it is that other people will not have it in their storage.
Lastly, please remember as an archivist you are not there to determine if a piece is worthy of being saved. Just because you do not like or agree with the message does not mean it will be saved from being banned. All artworks amateur or professional are worthy of being archived.

To keep the middle class in California, should developers build homes to rent or own?
When you imagine a renter of affordable housing, Christopher McCormick is probably not who comes to mind. The 38-year-old software developer was on his way to work in early 2020 when he passed an affordable apartment building under construction in Emeryville. He was surprised to find that his annual income — $79,400 — qualified him for a below-market-rate one-bedroom unit. The rent was just…

Electrical Estimating: Pros and Cons of Each Method.
When it comes to planning an electrical project—whether it’s residential wiring, commercial installation, or industrial systems—accurate estimating can make or break the job. Estimating isn’t just about crunching numbers; it's about balancing cost, time, and resources while staying competitive and profitable.
There are several methods used in electrical estimating, each with its own strengths and limitations. Let’s break them down in plain language to help you choose the one that suits your project best.
1. Manual Estimating
This is the old-school way—think spreadsheets, calculators, printed price books, and a lot of brainwork.
âś… Pros:
Cost-effective: No software expenses involved.
Full control: You’re handling every detail yourself, which some estimators prefer.
Good for small projects: Perfect for straightforward jobs where the extra tech would be overkill.
❌ Cons:
Time-consuming: You’ll spend hours flipping through catalogs and checking prices.
Prone to errors: Human error is more likely, especially under tight deadlines.
Limited scalability: As projects grow, this method becomes harder to manage.
2. Unit Cost Estimating
Here, you estimate the job by applying a fixed cost per unit (like per foot of wire or per outlet).
âś… Pros:
Faster than manual: Once you have your cost database set up, it’s much quicker.
Consistent: Helps you maintain standard pricing across similar projects.
Useful for repeated tasks: Great if your projects often involve similar setups.
❌ Cons:
Not very detailed: It may miss project-specific variables like labor challenges or site conditions.
Needs regular updates: If your unit prices are outdated, your whole estimate could be off.
3. Assembly Estimating
This method involves grouping components together—like all materials and labor for installing a panel—and estimating them as a package.
âś… Pros:
More detailed: Gives a better picture than simple unit pricing.
Efficient: Speeds up the process while keeping a good level of accuracy.
Great for estimating recurring setups: Especially helpful for commercial jobs with repeatable tasks.
❌ Cons:
Still needs adjustments: Unique project elements may not fit pre-made assemblies.
Takes time to set up: You’ll need a well-built database or estimating software to make it work smoothly.
4. Software-Based Estimating
Using specialized electrical estimating software like Accubid, McCormick, or Trimble can automate much of the process.
âś… Pros:
Fast and accurate: Reduces manual work and catches errors.
Real-time pricing: Many tools integrate with live price databases.
Project management integration: Helps track labor, material, and change orders in one place.
❌ Cons:
Costly upfront: Good software isn’t cheap, especially for small businesses.
Learning curve: Teams may need training to get up to speed.
Can become too reliant: If you're not careful, you might trust the software too much and overlook real-world variables.
5. Design-Build Estimating
This method involves estimating costs while also participating in the design process. It’s collaborative and often used in fast-track projects.
âś… Pros:
Flexibility: You can adjust the estimate as the design evolves.
Improved collaboration: Close coordination between engineers, contractors, and clients.
Helps with value engineering: Cost-saving changes can be made early in the design phase.
❌ Cons:
Can be uncertain: Without final designs, estimates are less precise.
Not ideal for competitive bids: Hard to compare apples to apples when every design is different.
Wrapping Up
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to electrical estimating. The best method depends on the size of your project, your team's experience, available tools, and the level of detail required. Small residential jobs might only need a manual or unit-based estimate, while large-scale commercial work could demand advanced software or assembly estimates.
The key is to strike a balance between speed, accuracy, and practicality. And no matter the method, double-checking your numbers never goes out of style.Want help choosing the right estimating tools or streamlining your workflow?
