I know that I am asking the 64-million-dollar question, but is there an average profit margin that integrators shoot for? Things have been a little tight (competitive) in our market area and I am getting questioned on the margin that I am maintaining to win jobs. Just an average markup on materials and labor and I do understand the market will bear what it will bear. Thanks for your input.
