Inquiry

For the Materials Credits: (4, 5, 6 and 7), the percentage calculation is based on material costs only (see exclusions). Our project is a publicly bid government project for which only lump sum bid information is available. The general contractor has significant historical data calculating the materials only cost of a project at 60% of the total construction cost. Would it be acceptable to use this formula to prepare our calculations for these credits?
