Bidding with greater detail and accuracy
- Bid Package Clarification’s (BPC) gives specific information from drawing details/information
to better understand complete scope for each bidding contractor.
- Traditional bid package write up describing work scopes and outlining
specifications can not cover all of contractors’ responsibility for every
detail/information on drawings.
- A contractor’s proposal can be much more accurate and complete using
Bid Package Clarifications (BPC)
Reduce scope conflict and cost
- Using Bid Package Clarification’s (BPC) each contractor knows where their work
starts and stops, therefore less confusion or possible change orders.
- Bid Package Clarification’s (BPC) reduces duplication of work between contractors,
therefore less cost.
- Bidding with detail drawing information reduces gaps and gray areas and future
“Scope Creep” causing project budget problems.
Reduce “when in doubt...add”
- If contractor’s are unsure when reviewing drawings during bidding they will
“when in doubt...add”. Bid Package Clarification’s (BPC) reduces this
unnecessary cost increase.
- The traditional description of work scopes and specification do not clearly cover
all the information on the drawings and without BPC there will be “doubt”.
- BPC helps contractor’s confidence when bidding and they can be more competitive.
Jobsite Management Tool
- The Project Manager and/or Job Superintendant can use Bid Package Clarification (BPC)
to manage the project construction with contractor’s well defined scopes.
- Bid Package Clarification’s (BPC) are very specific and describe each contractor’s
responsibility to assist them during actual construction.
- All contractor’s will have available to them detail information Bid Package
Clarification’s (BPC) to help their onsite labor team during construction.
Reduce Unnecessary RFI’s and Delays
- A major challenge during actual on-site construction is when contractors disagree
or do not understand their responsibility for specific drawing detail/information.
BPC minimizes this problem.
- BPC can reduce unnecessary “Request for Information” (RFI’s) that can delay the
project when waiting for a response to an RFI.
Contractor’s Better Understand Their Scope/Responsibilities
- With BPC’s all contractor’s better understand their responsibilities for the project
based on drawing details/information not just by description of their work and listing
of required specifications.
- Bid Package Clarification’s (BPC) are a major source of information for the entire
field operation.
- Once you have completed a project utilizing BPC’s it will be obvious,
this jobsite management tool saves time and money.
