How Job Cost Tracking Actually Looks in Underground Electrical
The Scenario
An underground electrical crew installs a 400-foot duct bank for a commercial development. Conduit, pull boxes, and concrete encasement materials were tracked on paper. Machine time for the saw-cutter was estimated rather than metered. The PM reconciles cost after the POCO acceptance.
The Real Impact
Unmetered equipment time and untracked material usage on duct bank work average 10–16% variance from estimated cost — invisible until reconciliation and too late to recover.

The Cost of Doing Nothing in New York
On average, field service contractors underestimate job costs by 15–20%. On a $200K/month revenue base, that blindness costs $30K–$40K in unrecovered margin per year.
