Autodesk Construction Cloud - cost plus contract

[erinznire]

Good day Humans!

I am trying to figure out how you set up a cost plus contract budget etc. in Autodesk Construction Cloud. I would expect this was a commonly required element..? But since there are no ootb settings for markup (aside from change orders) and a contract type field that does nothing and absolutely nothing to find online I feel like either it just can’t be done or I’m way over thinking it and it’s super simple…

hopefully it’s the former. Any help is greatly appreciated!

thank you!

Hi @erinznire, 

Assuming you would like to calculate markup budgets from non-markup budgets, could you please confirm whether the following scenarios may happen in your daily work of cost-plus contracts?

Budget 1: Labor       100

Budget 2: Material  200

Budget 3: Markup (10%)

1. Markup budgets are calculated from the sum of non-markup budgets.

For example, Budget 3 = (100+200)*10% = 30

2. Markup budgets are calculated from the selected non-markup budgets.

For example, Budget 3 = Budget 1: Labor * 10% = 100*10%=10

3. Markup budgets are fixed amounts.

For example, Budget 3 = 50

4. After the calculation, do we need to forbid other operations to markup budgets? For example, internal budget transfer or transfer change order from/to markup budgets.

5. After the markup budgets are calculated, would you like to spread those budgets to non-markup budgets related Main Contract SOVs?
For example, for the above budgets, the main contract SOVs are as follows:

Main Contract 01
    Labor: 110 (=100+100*10%)

    Material: 220 (=200+200*10%)

Thanks and best regards

Thanks Jason,

We don’t quite have a budget yet and we’re billing out for pre-construction items. So we needed to add markup on a cost item to bill to the client..we’ve resorted to just changing the quantity to 1.134 to “add” a markup.

thank you for taking the time to reply!
