Bid comparison

A comparison based on reviewed bids

The comparison brings together companies and their bids. Checks highlight differences; the decision remains with the professional.

01

Choose bidders

Search companies by name, discipline or canton. Add selected companies to the project, then specify a contact and consultation status. The contact library remains independent of this selection.

02

Link received bids

Import completed tender PDFs and link each bid to its company. One bid is retained per company. Manufacturer and supplier quotes are handled separately. Review extracted lines, particularly from scanned PDFs.

03

Check items

Compare unit prices and examine missing items. Missing does not mean free. Check differences and approve equivalences with a reason where necessary, referring to the source PDF.

04

Read the summary

Review discounts, adjustments, VAT and differences between calculated and stated totals. Bids with unresolved checks remain unranked. Totals use submitted quantities without automatically normalising them to a common basis: check the scope before comparing totals.
