When to use it.
Construction Bid Proposal is a 12-page lump-sum bid for general contractors tendering for a building project, shown here for a two-storey community health clinic. It covers the owner's need and deadline, a line site plan in three phases, a 56-week schedule by trade with the critical path, your safety record against the benchmark, the base bid by CSI division, three priced add-ons, bonds and insurance and an acceptance page. Navy line drawings on a pale blueprint grid and Plex Mono dimension labels make it read like a set of drawings.
