Want to recovene next week and meet an hour with Jason and each of the RMs to finalize pricing and make sure nothing is out of place. Greg mentioned possibly doing the snow hauling for $1 so we do not have to orverprice ourselves on that end. Have to go over pricing out the new lot sites with the magnesium chloride with field to make sure we are covering ourselves on that end.
Chris feels very good at chances to win, thinks we will get a minimum of 350 and possibly over 500. |

-pricing is to be set for 1 push to 1 salt for every 4 inches. So we will have events pricing from 1-4,4-8,8-12. Using pushes and salts that are in middle of the tier
Number of Pushes:
-1-4: 1 push
-4-8: 2.5 pushes
-8-12: 3.75 pushes
-only billing 1 salt per each category. Need a salt only category in the pricing.
-original margin for the vacant margins will be 25% across the board
- moving efficiency from a min of 1000 to 1500

Sent updated pricing with new sidewalk specs, Chris going to present to Shane at Kwik Trip. Chris, Jacob, Jason T, and Greg are meeting with Kwik Trip team at their HQ tomorrow morning.
Chris was very adament about sidewalks with zero specs having a $0 price point instead of being the minimum. We stressed the importance about having a minimum, however Chris mentioned that would hurt us with the way KT is calculating price. Still tried to lean on Jason Thorwarth for his expertise. Adjusted totals to present to customer to $0 for sidewalks with zero specs. Going to give us some trouble with not knowing which locations KT deems not having any sidewalks due to certain locations taking care of it. We'll have to see what Chris and Greg want to do with this. |

Got pricing feedback from Shane at Kwik Trip, trying to get ahold of Courtney to break out public and private SWs by meeting Wednesday. Found out public SWs are not included in price, our pricing seems competitive but SW pricing will throw totals off.
Shane from KT also sent us over photos about who has the responsibility for snow on each site. Would have been nice to have this earlier since it will drastically change the specs and pricing. Need to see how Chris wants to handle this. |

Met with Steven, Chris, and Jake - going to send over list of non-vacant sites we are unable to find and see if we can do something about those. Steven will see if his team can find them driving by and Jake will work on getting site maps for those. Since the lead for the RFP is out until Monday, Chris sees no rush in getting it submitted and is pushing for mid next week. Will schedule a follow-up call for Tuesday. |

Sites for Andy’s sites can’t be found by satellite. Can’t verify specs
One site is a big convenient store at one point, but can’t confirm as a Kwik Trips
Specs come out to 90K for parking lot, but no confirmation
Existing parking lot have been measured for specs
Equipment needs to be changed to Truck with Plow
Efficiency is 25K
Truck cost is$110, Bulk salt to $175, De icer to $50, efficiency for sidewalk is pushed to
Snow Hauling Rate changed $250
Dump fee may come into play, dependent on location, DM will possibly call provider to see the fee for dump cost

Bulk salt per ton $450, 100,000 efficiency
$45 hand labor rate
Snow hauling - $450 from target proposal – all-inclusive cost ask from customer
Do not want to price ourselves out from hauling rates
We usually price per load to providers
Hauling price being standard is difficult
We will look at relocation on property before hauling - $450 rate hauling. Can give an up-front cost of relocation. Ask Customer what their current issues are with snow hauling
Awnings included – buffer into the sidewalk minimum? Need height, expectation from customer, leave a buffer off for now until more from customer
