Real-world usage of TMP|TMPBIDITM
Appears in 8 of 358 scopes ESXPress has analysed and in 6 of 550 converted customer scopes. Usage is measured from real claim documents, never estimated. How this is measured.
How it's written in real claims
From 9 line items across 8 scopes processed through ESXPress — the exact operation text and unit of measure adjusters actually write:
- “Temporary Repairs (Bid Item)”5 lines
- “Materials only for tarping numerous times”1 line
- “Tarp - Labor only - 3 trips/tarped 3 times”1 line
- “Temporary Repairs- tarp”1 line
- “Temporary Repairs (Bid Item) Tarp areas with leaks with large tarps”1 line
Dominant unit of measure: EA — used in 100% of samples.

When to use it
Use TMP|TMPBIDITM when the scope calls for this code — Temporary Services work measured in each (EA). The real-world act texts track the reference wording: 5 of the 9 observed line items (55.6%) were written with this code.
The co-occurrence data below comes from processed scopes; the strongest pairing is with Seal/prime acoustic ceiling (popcorn) t… (PNT|PNTACS) — the same scopes, 3 times.
How to use it
Measure the work in EA: 9 of the 9 observed line items (100.0%) used EA. There is no unit variation for this code in the processed scopes.
This code accounts for 5 of the 9 sampled lines (55.6%). Estimators also write “Materials only for tarping numerous times” (1 line).
Often used together
Two kinds of related codes are listed below. First, codes that appear in the same scopes as TMP|TMPBIDITM — co-occurrence measured across the claim scopes processed through ESXPress with support of at least 3 scopes and lift of at least 1.5. Second, other frequently used Temporary Services (TMP) category codes, ranked by how often they appear in the analysed scopes. Descriptions are from the ESXPress code reference.
Real-world examples
Each example is an anonymised line from a processed claim scope: the exact operation text and unit of measure adjusters wrote, with the observed line-item count. The count is line frequency across the analysed samples — never a price and never a quantity from a specific claim.
- In a real claim, this line appeared as: “Materials only for tarping numerous times”, EA, qty 1.
- In a real claim, this line appeared as: “Tarp - Labor only - 3 trips/tarped 3 times”, EA, qty 1.
- In a real claim, this line appeared as: “Temporary Repairs- tarp”, EA, qty 1.
