Pricing Sheets
This option allows the estimator to enter and track subcontractor and material supplier quotes, then select one quote to load into the estimate. There can be up to 36 different sub Pricing Sheets per estimate and up to 12 subcontractors entered for each pricing sheet. Using this option allows the estimator to easily monitor subcontractor quotes, see the items that each sub has quoted, see which sub is currently low, and print recap sheets.
The steps involved in using the sub pricing system are listed below and explained in further detail later in this section.
Step (1)
Step (2)
Give the Pricing Sheet a name (i.e. “Pavement Marking”) and select the cost type that the prices will be loaded into within the estimate (Sub, Material, Supplies, or Hauling).
Step (3)
Step (4)
Select a sub and load those prices into the estimate. This step involves selecting the desired sub in each sub quote sheet and “loading” that sub's prices into the actual bid. You can load, unload and re-load a specific sub or different subs into the estimate at any time.
Select the Pay Item(s) to include in the Pricing Sheet.
Enter each contractor’s prices into the pricing sheet.
