ARE YOU CHARGING ENOUGH AS AN ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR?
How do you know?
ANTHONY CAPKUN
This is now our 3rd Annual National Chargeout Rate & Revenues Survey, and the second to occur during Covid.
I’ll admit... I would love to conduct this annual survey during normal life, but perhaps it is precisely because of these abnormal times that it becomes that much more important to get the pulse of your fellow electrical contractors.
We aim to make this Special Feature as visually appealing as possible, with some commentary thrown in here and there, to make it quick and easy to see where you stand on metrics ranging from workforce size and emergency Industrial charge-out rate to apprentice intake, productivity impacts, and more.
Compared to last year, our respondents still believe we are at least one to two years away from bidding, productivity, revenues, etc., returning to pre-pandemic levels—if at all.
If there’s one thing the pandemic has taught us, it’s how to better flex technologies and solutions that are right here, right now, to help us continue to innovate our processes and service offering to ensure a better business outcome over the coming months.
This year’s Special Feature is generously sponsored by Milwaukee Tool, a brand of TTi. In speaking with Craig Baxter, president, Techtronic Industries Canada (TTi Canada), we agree that—as an industry—one should not continue with business as usual.
“We remain in a challenging environment. It is critical that everyone remains focused on the things within their control,” Craig says. “We are focused on keeping our people safe and productive so they are able to continue delivering the disruptive innovation you have come to expect from Milwaukee.”
Flexing technology, “disruptive innovation”, finding better ways of doing things... these are concepts to be embraced as we move through and, eventually, out of pandemic.
And, with that, let’s get started.
Getting to know you
We always like to start our survey with a few simple “getto-know-you” questions. Similar to last year, about 82% of respondents identified as open shops, and 18% union shops. Fully 1/4 of respondents have been in the business of electrical contracting for over 41 years.The next largest segment, at 16% are the newcomers: those in business from 0 to four years.
Where do you work?
How many apprentices does your business employ, on average (pre-COVID)?
How has the pandemic impacted your ability or desire to take on apprentices?
Due to Covid, 31% of respondents felt unable to take on apprentices (or additional apprentices). Thankfully, roughly 2/3 of our respondents continued taking on apprentices as they did before the pandemic. It needs to be said: jobsite experience and learning from other journeymen are vital to the development of tomorrow’s electrical professionals. Thanks to all of you who are finding ways to make it work!
Charge-out rates
Here we compare charge-out rates as reported by our respondents. We break them down by union shop and open shop, then the national average. All values have been rounded up or down to the nearest dollar.
What is your charge-out rate for Residential work (per hour)? *
By how much have you increased your rates since last year?
Do you have a minimum service charge?
Do you have a minimum emergency service charge?
Do you account for
Do you have a different charge-out rate for apprentices?
Business confidence?
We’ve added a few new questions since last year but, ultimately, this section aims to explore the confidence (or pessimism) of electrical contractors regarding productivity, revenues, etc. Of course, it concludes with our respondents’ thoughts on when the construction industry will get back to normal.
What is the approximate annual revenue for your business (pre-COVID)?
Thinking back since the time the pandemic began (March 2020), how much expected revenue did you lose?
The
* Due to rounding, not all results may add up to exactly 100%.
Last year, about 5% of respondents said they lost 100% of revenues due to Covid. While 4/5 of respondents report losing revenues (to varying degrees), at least no one reported 100% loss of revenues.
Have you started limiting the hold on your own prices on tenders to much shorter periods than, say, the standard 60 days?
This question was inspired by our Legal Desk columnist, Dan Leduc.
How have safety protocols (e.g. sanitizer, wipes, no shared tools, etc.) added to your direct costs since last year?
How have safety protocols (e.g. sanitization, physical distancing) negatively impacted your productivity since pre-Covid?
When do you think bidding, productivity, revenues, etc., will get back to pre-pandemic levels?
Within the next 3 MONTHS
Within the next 6 MONTHS
Within the next 12 MONTHS
Within the next 24 MONTHS
Possibly longer OR NEVER
These responses do not significantly differ from our findings last year. Despite being well over a year into this pandemic, respondents remain pessimistic over when we get back to normal. The vast majority believe we are still at least one year away from any return to normalcy, while half believe it will be at least two years or longer (maybe never).
Thanks to the following...
Not surprisingly, safety protocols continue to negatively affect productivity. As discussed by our Estimating 101 columnists John F. Wiesel and Dan Beresford, “In conversations with electricians across Canada, we’ve learned that Lost Time has increased from an hour a day to an hour and a half due to late starts (extra time needed for setup), longer breaks, and early stops (to thoroughly clean up)” (EBMag April 2021). John and Dan strongly urge you to account for Lost Time (unproductive time) in your labour hours.
Who is bearing the cost of construction site Covid safety protocols for the Electrical portion?
We added this question to the survey after hearing that some GCs were pushing those safety costs down to their subs. Nearly 3/4 of respondents report they are on the hook for safety protocols for the Electrical portion. As you bid, remember to include the cost of safety protocols or, at the least, identify who will shoulder the burden.
We will put out the call again in the pages of Electrical Business in June 2022, as well as on our website (ebmag.com) and our weekly newsletter for next year’s National Survey.
Special thanks to our sponsor, Milwaukee Tool, for helping us bring you this information. We rely on all our industry partners to bring you news and information, year after year, so please give them a look and check out the solutions they provide.
And, of course, the biggest thanks go to all of who took 5 minutes out of your day to answer our completely anonymous survey. We wish you the best of luck in the year ahead, and hope for great news in next year’s annual national survey.
