For agency producers
Specs out. Bids back. Signed off.
The bidding loop on one thread: write the spec once, get vendor bids back on the real AICP form, level them to the cent, and send the client an approval that comes back version-stamped.

The path
The loop, in order.
- 01Bid Specs
The spec goes out clean
The AICP content spec with a working clause library — 50/50 domestic, 75/25 overseas, overages confirmed in writing — and the timeline block: bid due, award, PPM, air. Firm bid or cost-plus, stated on the spec.
- 02Bid
Bids come back on the real form
Vendors price the job on the 2023 AICP form, A–X, overtime columns included. Same letters, same line numbers — comparable by construction, not by cleanup.
- 03Estimator
Level them to the cent
Three vendor columns on one set of lines. Send to Estimator carries each bid across with the totals equal to the cent; the deltas read across a screen, not out of a stack of PDFs.
- 04Sign-off
The client signs the version they saw
Send the recommendation for approval. The decision comes back stamped with the exact version the client reviewed — no archaeology over which PDF got approved.
The killer demo
Three bids, levelled to the cent.
Each vendor's bid arrives on the same lettered lines it went out on. Send to Estimator carries it across with the total intact — to the cent, verifiable line by line — and the leveling board puts the three columns on one page. What you recommend is what the client signs, and the approval is stamped with the version they signed.
Proof
Three things you can check.
Same form, every vendor
The spec frames the job once; the bids answer on the 2023 AICP form. No reformatting three vendors' spreadsheets at 11pm.
To the cent
The bid total and the estimate total match exactly through the handoff. Check any line — the arithmetic is the audit.
The approval has a version
Sign-off decisions come back stamped with the document version the client saw, filed with the estimate they approved.
