RANKED BY URGENCY

Review Sumayya’s 14 Acacia takeoff — she’s blocked on roof framing quantities. I’ve queued the markup compare against last similar build for you.

Send the 89 Glen Eira quote v2 — I’ve drafted the cover note to Campbell + client cc, all 14 line items reconcile to the takeoff.

Follow up 4 outstanding sub rates for 142 Bay ECI (Steelfix, TileCo, Vincent, Acme). I can fire chase emails as a batch.

Prep the ECI scope handover doc for Drazen — 142 Bay scope freeze locked, I’ve drafted the section headings.
