As a general contractor with BC Pro, you have access to bid forms that can be customized to meet your project’s needs. Your subcontractors will be required to complete the bid forms when they submit on BuildingConnected so that you can ensure you receive all the information you need for your project.
There are two types of bid forms - Project Bid Forms and Scope-specific Bid Forms. In this article, you'll learn:
To edit project bid forms
Open a project and click on the "Bid Forms" tab.
Click "Edit".
Click "add" in any section and enter any general acknowledgments, bond information, and more that you want all of your bidders to know or fill out. See Project bid forms overview (BC Pro) for more information about each of the sections.
Depending on the section, you have different options for the response types - percentage, monetary amount, text response, or yes/no. You can also choose to require or not require an item.
Tip: You can create headers by adding a colon to the end of the line item and it will immediately be marked as a "section header".
To reorder line items, hold onto the left-hand side of a line item where the dots are located and drag and drop them as desired.
To remove lines, click on the "x" icon in the "Required?" column.
To copy and paste items from Excel into BuildingConnected
If you have line items already written in Excel, you can quickly copy from Excel (pictured left in the following video) and paste them right into a project or scope-specific bid form on BuildingConnected (pictured right). BuildingConnected will separate them into lines accordingly.
