Matt,
Thanks for the reply. So the job with all the subs, permits, etc. looks to be over 12 million dollars. 30% is 3.6 million. Doesn't that seem extremely high?? I would love to do the job and were going up against three other contractors.
Thank you in advance.

Look at the ROI to set price and profit
Somewhere around 30% ROI is appropriate. It is up to you whether you want to go higher or lower. There is no right or wrong. It is a business decision. My book has the complete calculation.
Best of luck

Matt
Thanks for taking the time to read this e-mail. I have a quick question for you. My friend (who is a carpenter) and I (an electrical contractor) have started a general contracting business. So far we have done some houses and some smaller commercial buildings. We have recently been offered to submit a bid on a 114 unit town home project that looks to be 12 million plus. Does the standard 10% apply on that scale?? If so it would be over 1.2 million dollars... or does the markup change based upon the price associated with a big job??
Thanks for any info,
