Provide the requested amounts

For On-Screen Entry, enter the Contractor Sum and any alternates. For OCR PDF Capture, complete the project’s coded Bid Form and review the recognized values. File-only projects collect the requested files.

Attach the required documents

Upload each requested file under the correct requirement. Public and confidential labels identify how the project classifies that material.

Complete connected trade selections

When Sub-Bid for GC Use applies, review the published official trade results, choose an eligible bid for each required trade or use a configured Owner allowance, and answer the bond questions. Some trade bids restrict who can use them. The form combines the selected trade amounts with your Contractor Sum to calculate the Total Contract.

Know when this applies

Independent Submission keeps primary and secondary bids independent. Only projects using Sub-Bid for GC Use require this connected selection process.

Finish with a submission confirmation

Check your response and addendum acknowledgments, then select Submit before the deadline. The confirmed submission provides a timestamp and a link to the submitted package.

Your next steps

  1. Read the primary requirements and prepare your files.
  2. Complete amounts, alternates and applicable trade selections.
  3. Submit and keep the confirmation.
