Comment on Reader Turnkey Project

Yesterday, one of our readers sent me a rough draft of their Turnkey Contract budget and their terms and conditions.

Our reader asked me to review the draft once and give my feedback on it.

It’s too much work for me to do. Still, I decided to give my feedback on it.

He also specifically asked about the construction cost estimation.
