When to bring us in / 01 Bid

Put the bid basis on the desk.

The bid-stage handoff centers on the documents and the decision the estimator names before quote leveling.

How a bid-stage review is framed. We build the brief around one decision, set the documents that control it side by side, and hand it to the person who owns the call. The brief below shows the shape of that handoff.

Illustrative brief. Composite example, not customer work.
