It's clear you don't work around here. We squeeze every cent we can out of
the hardware column in every estimate/proposal we create. A heard of
cockroaches couldn't do better at getting all the crumbs. Instead of picking
a AL300ULX for example well do the arithmetic and get a AL175ULX if it fits
the load. All those small adjustments can add up to real saving for the
customer (although the customer might not even know it) and/or even getting
the job if it is a competitive situation.
