cwicr-overhead-markup

The CWICR Overhead & Markup Calculator applies systematic markups to direct construction costs by calculating general overhead, project overhead, profit margins, bonds, insurance, and other indirect expenses. Use this skill when converting detailed cost estimates into final bid prices, requiring transparent markup breakdowns across residential, commercial, industrial, or government projects with configurable rates tailored to project type and client requirements.

# CWICR Overhead & Markup Calculator

## Business Case

### Problem Statement
Direct costs need additional markups:
- General overhead (office, insurance)
- Project overhead (site costs)
- Profit margins
- Bonds and insurance

### Solution
Systematic markup application to CWICR direct costs with configurable rates for overhead, profit, bonds, and other indirect costs.

### Business Value
- **Complete pricing** - From cost to selling price
- **Configurable rates** - By project/client type
- **Transparency** - Clear markup breakdown
- **Consistency** - Standard markup application
