Bid Preparation in Construction
Bid preparation in construction is the process of submitting a proposal for the management of a construction project to the project owner. With the bid, contractors commit to providing a project owner with specific construction services for a quoted cost by a specific date. It’s important to utilize professional bid management services to make sure all of these important details are feasible and correct.
Without professional bid preparation services, many contractors find themselves bidding for the wrong jobs or under-bidding on projects that result in a loss. In fact, there is much more to successful bid preparation in construction than being the lowest bidder. Bid preparation services are more complicated than reviewing plans, developing an estimate of costs, and firing off an estimate. In a competitive bidding environment, contractors must go beyond just estimating costs, and provide clients with a proposal for bid management services for the entire construction project.
With our bid management services for the construction industry, we can help you achieve your business goals. For small construction businesses, pursuing new projects can represent a huge opportunity cost. When you utilize our bid management services, there is no need to dedicate substantial time and resources to the lengthy process of bidding for a new construction project. This leaves you to focus on what you do best: building! Not endless paperwork.
Our specialty is in construction bid services allowing us to develop a niched expertise in construction bidding. Marlin Buckley, P.C. can produce far more effective bids than a generalized bid management firm.
To begin the bid development process, we’ll sit down with you and develop a thorough understanding of your business goals, strengths, and operational capacity. Every business and business opportunity is unique, so every bid will be tailored to your business – no boilerplate bids!
With a specific project opportunity in mind, we’ll go about creating a winning bid. We’ll use your input about how you plan to deliver services for the proposed project, and then get started writing the bid, making sure it meets the requirements of the project specifications. We can provide bid management services independently, or with as much input as you want to give.
