Level subcontractor bids without rebuilding the bid tab.

Upload the bids for a trade package as PDFs. Bidtab reads each one, lines up base bids, alternates, unit prices and scope exclusions side by side, shows the page every figure came from, and exports the comparison as an Excel workbook.

How it works

  1. Upload the bids

    Subcontractor proposals as PDFs, typed or scanned, one PDF per bidder.

  2. Check the leveled comparison

    Base bids, alternates, allowances, unit prices, inclusions and exclusions in one grid. Each figure shows the page and the words it came from. Anything Bidtab can't verify on the page becomes an open question, never a guess.

  3. Export the workbook

    Download the comparison as an Excel workbook, with a sources sheet beside it.

You make the award decision

  • Bidders appear in the order you uploaded them. Bidtab never ranks them.
  • No bid is labeled lowest, best value or recommended.
  • Excluded scope is shown as excluded, never priced for you.
