The Three Problems With Bidding:

1. Understanding the scope of the work how to write job specifications, how to bid, how to sell to commercial & residential, what to charge for mowing, mulch, spring and fall cleanups, and writing work proposals and customer contracts.

2. Knowing the amount of time it will take to complete the work of mowing, lawn care, fertilizing, landscaping, plowing, irrigation systems, planting grass, shrubs, trees, and hundreds of grounds maintenance tasks in general.

3. Knowing the highest price you can get and still remaining competitive, and making a profit.

When it comes to pricing lawn and landscape jobs, nobody has more industry pricing information than Nilsson Associates. Nilsson's Job Price Guides covers lawn care job bidding & estimating landscaping job bids for commercial & residential customers. Get more customers. Price estimates & bids, grounds services, landscaping pricing estimates , estimating & bid the price seasonal work, year around commercial estimate contracts, best price per square foot, best grounds maintenance & landscaping job to bid & pricing, price of lawn care, lawn mowing price, aeration pricing, lawns, commercial landscape job bid estimates, maintenance estimating & pricing, mulching prices, pricing chemicals, weeding & aerating pricing, fertilizer prices, prices for organic fertilizer, pricing weeds in beds, pricing pruning & trimming trees & shrubs, pricing commercial & residential snow plowing, hardscape pricing, pricing hydroseeding, irrigation service estimates for commercial & residential, pricing seeding lawns, pricing lawn sod, prices for slit seeding lawns, pricing edging lawn beds, spring cleanup prices, pricing fall cleanups, hourly price of pressure washing walks & patios, pricing trees, stump grinding prices, price for gutter cleaning, lawn dethatching price, price for shoveling snow, pricing salting, price sanding.

Since time or payroll costs are the biggest expense, payroll hours need to be controlled. Most errors in bidding are the time estimates. If you don't know how long the work will take, you can't accurately bid the job, or assign the right number of employees. Without "time knowledge" on some days unplanned overtime is incurred, on others crews return to the shop without having put in a full day's work. Workers have a tendency to "stretch out" the days when not enough work was assigned. The owner in that sutuation never discovers what amount of work could have been done since he wasn't aware of the time requirements to begin with. Who to blame, where to look when profits are too low for a job? Workers too slow, price not high enough?
