Real-Time Bidset Availability
When bid documents have been reviewed and approved, they are “posted” on the Internet in a project specific planroom that is password protected. This allows the entire bidder community to immediately view the plans online and evaluate the project. This will place the plans of the project on the desktops of potential bidders within minutes, saving days and even weeks of time. This will substantially reduce administrative and secretarial overhead costs for GC’s and CM’s. And by utilizing PlanWell's invitation to bid system, BidCaster, the bid process can be even smoother!
Bidder Efficiency Engine
When the project is posted, bidders can evaluate the project online and determine if they wish to bid. If they do wish to bid, they can easily place their orders for construction documents online. This saves time and money for the GC or CM by reducing the number of sets printed by up to 40%…only those interested in bidding will order sets. This will save time and money for subs by reducing drive time to review and pickup documents.
Critical Information Distribution
One of the greatest inefficiencies of the traditional construction model is distributing addenda or bulletins in timely fashion. Literally hundreds of man hours are wasted refiguring recently completed bids in light of late arriving changes. Through PlanWell, the whole project team can be notified of such changes in near real-time and then immediately evaluate those changes online.
PlanWell Enterprise™ Carries You Home
Throughout the construction phase of each project, PlanWell serves as a distribution point for additional change orders and as an easy-to-use ordering and delivery tool for additional documents, when needed. Because of the Electronic Document Management System within PlanWell, all documentation is kept current, organized, and indexed, which will reduce errors.
