Inspiration
Client in construction industry wanted an efficient way of capturing comparing bids in simple way.
What it does
the key functionalities of the app, involve tracking bids, comparing prices, and analyzing the lowest price options. It provides a clear indication of the purpose and price of bidders summarized in a concise way.
Others may use this Doc to Create a first draft of a Bid Doc by answering a few questions from submitted Bids.
This template allows you to compare multiple items from three (or more) different bidders and determine the lowest bid for each item. The "Lowest Bidder" column helps you identify which bidder submitted the lowest bid for each item.The "Lowest Buyout" column helps you identify which lowets price to Buyout a project.
