This view summarizes the bids from all vendors who were invited to bid on cost codes for a bid group as well as budget data for the bid group by plan & elevation. The view also allows the user to “drill down” (expand) the view to see data at a cost code level and if the cost code is a take-off cost code to view the bids for each take-off item for the cost code. It also summarizes the data at the bottom of the page to provide comparative data information such as cost per square foot and bid versus budget.
