Field guidance 1

Unit cost should reflect local productivity, equipment spread, and expected soil conditions.

Field guidance 2

Add mobilization separately so small jobs do not appear artificially efficient.

Field guidance 3

Disposal pricing can vary sharply by haul distance and tipping restrictions.
