Decreasing Costs: Installation and Material Handling

Pump Cost Comparisons

Using a 3D computer-generated pump assembly, we develop an itemized “Bill of Materials” with tagged components.We will then provide you with a cost comparison of your project using welded/flanged components versus grooved components, taking into account, gauge connections, vibration isolators, pipe lengths and header clearances.

Our 3D service is often used for estimating, submittals, purchasing and field assembly processes, thus reducing costs and job delivery time. All Grinnell grooved components selected for the job can be crated together and tagged for delivery directly to the job site – further reducing material handling costs and improving your profitability.

Installed Cost Analysis

Labor is often the most expensive portion of a mechanical installation. You can reduce the labor costs using grooved joining methods instead of traditional time-consuming and dangerous welding/soldering techniques.

Using MCAA estimated man-hour data and our Bill of Materials, we can compare the cost savings of grooved piping solutions with traditional welded/flanged joining methods. During the process, our technical experts also work to reduce your costs by reviewing the plans and specifications for design redundancies and document conflicts.

The final summary sheet itemizes the costs by categories and details dollar and man-hour saving estimates, detailing the savings for you.
