BID SCHEDULE TO B2W · BETA

The owner's schedule.
Your next estimate, with less typing.

Upload a municipal, government, or developer bid item list. Review quantities and descriptions beside the original, then download an Excel workbook for B2W's Import Pay Items wizard.

PDF · Scanned PDF · XLSX · XLS · CSV. Existing Suite subscribers receive access at no added charge.

01 / UPLOAD

Choose the schedule

Select pages from a bid package or sheets from a workbook. Keep the source with the project so the estimator can reopen it later.

02 / REVIEW

Check against the original

Click an item to highlight its source. Correct values, review alternates, and resolve missing quantities without losing the owner's item codes.

03 / IMPORT

Download for B2W

Save the reviewed workbook and import it into a new, empty estimate. Prices remain blank unless you explicitly confirm a fixed-price item.

Built for a reviewed handoff

Does this replace an estimator's review?

No. Every row and selected page or sheet must be reviewed before export. Scans and unusual layouts can need corrections. This beta should be checked against representative office schedules and imported into a test estimate before use on a live bid.

Can it update an existing B2W estimate?

This release prepares new pay-item lists. Import into a new, empty estimate: B2W may remove existing items that are absent from an imported workbook.

What happens to prices, quantities, and alternates?

Owner codes and source order are preserved. Blank and zero quantities remain distinct. Engineer's estimates stay out of the export unless you confirm a fixed price. Phase and alternate groupings need your confirmation.

Can the office share schedules?

Save a schedule to an organization project for staff-to-estimator handoff. Existing project roles control who can view and edit. Each person who starts processing needs Suite access or an invited office account. Personal projects remain private.

How are uploaded documents handled?

Sources and export history are stored privately with the project until you delete the schedule or project. Selected scan images may be sent to the configured vision provider. Saved reviews and downloads remain accessible if new processing is paused or your subscription ends.
