Scheduled to launch August 19, Bid Leveling is a powerful tool that gives general contractors a smarter, faster way to evaluate bids. Compare proposals side by side, surface gaps and outliers instantly, and normalize bids for true apples-to-apples analysis. With color coded tracking and less manual effort, you can make confident decisions, plan projects more accurately, and drive better outcomes from day one.
The Bid Leveling feature is designed to enhance the bidder evaluation process for general contractors by providing a comprehensive toolset for comparing and analyzing bids.
Key features include:
Leveled Bid Conversion: Users can convert leveled bids into commitments, copying the latest plug values for each line item to ensure consistency and accuracy.
Bid Leveling Permissions: Admin-level users have the ability to add plugs and modify bids, while Read-Only and Standard users have read-only access to leveled bids, ensuring data integrity and security.
Streamlined Comparison: This feature provides a side-by-side comparison of bids, highlighting missing or excluded line items and allowing for adjustments to ensure an apples-to-apples comparison.
Enhanced Decision-Making: Integration with COMPASS by Bespoke Metrics data enriches the decision-making process, enabling contractors to find the right bidder while mitigating project risk.
Audit Trails and Color Coding: Track changes with audit trail and color coding, providing transparency and accountability throughout the bidding process.
Reduced App Switching: Eliminates the need to jump between spreadsheets, emails, or external systems, so you can make faster, smarter decisions all in one place.
These improvements lead to more informed decisions, better project planning, and ultimately, more successful project outcomes. Bid leveling is available to all Bidding 2.0 customers.
