The cost schedules

Templates for the two tables the client reads first: the immediate repairs schedule and the replacement reserves schedule, each with a worked example showing the basis for every figure.

Most readers open a PCR at the tables. The narrative explains, but the two cost schedules are what gets escrowed, negotiated and argued about — and they are where an observation and an opinion most often get welded into a single unchallengeable number.

These templates keep the basis of each figure visible: what was observed, what was assumed, what was measured versus counted, and what could not be determined. A reader who can see the basis can revise the number without discarding the report.
