EasyPrice Commercial/Industrial Project Single Divisor Pricing Calculator MS Excel

When setting service pricing for your HVAC business, you need to understand that there are two types of business costs – direct and indirect or overhead costs. Direct costs are the cost of goods sold required to deliver work from a lead to job closeout. It includes parts, equipment, materials, ductwork, permits, labor, and vehicle expenses. Business owners typically price their work where most projects represent 60% or higher in equipment, materials, and subs. On the other hand, the indirect or overhead cost keeps the lights on and sustainable. Your overhead costs include your mortgage/lease/rent, utility expenses, admin and sales salary, uniforms, employee training, and trash removal. You need an accurate pricing method to compete on large or multi-phase jobs. The single divisor pricing method uses an average overhead recovery which can overprice a job.

EasyPrice Dual Rate Overhead Project Pricing Calculator MS Excel

This job pricing method utilizes two overhead rates for subcontractors, equipment, and materials and one for direct labor. The main reason to use this method is that overhead is more accurately distributed based on the percentage of install labor to non-labor and materials direct costs on a job.

Overhead is allocated higher for projects with a large proportion of the job is installation labor versus equipment, materials, and subcontracts. Overheads are less where installation labor is small than non-labor and direct material costs.

Commercial HVAC Service Contractor Organizational Charts

Whether you are a one-person or a 200-person HVAC company, both perform the same business operating and work delivery functions. Each business function requires labor tasking to complete. What labor is needed depends on how much labor tasking is necessary to process the company’s book of business. No two companies have the same amount of labor tasking by business or work delivery function due to their mix of business types (e.g., construction, service, replacements, property management, building warranty companies, and others. However, all commercial HVAC companies should be organized in such a way as to compete competitively.
