There's no account setup, no onboarding portal, no ticket system. You have a bid. I work on it. Here's what that looks like start to finish.
You tell me what you've got — project type, trade scope, bid date, and what you need delivered. I tell you honestly whether it's a fit, how long it'll take, and what it'll cost. No commitment, no sales pitch. If it's not the right fit, I'll say so.
PDF plans, specs, addenda, any RFIs or clarifications — send everything you have. The more complete the set, the cleaner the estimate. If something's missing, I'll flag it before it becomes a problem.
Full takeoff, pricing, scope letter, vendor coordination — whatever the scope of work is. If I hit a question that needs an answer before I can price it, I ask you directly rather than making an assumption that costs you money.
Estimate, scope letter, and supporting documents delivered in your preferred format — Excel, PDF, or whatever your bid submission requires. Enough lead time for your review before the number goes out.
Hourly billing at $50/hour for time worked. Invoice on project completion with a clear breakdown of hours. Net-15 payment terms. No retainer required for new engagements.
