Multi-Plan Community Bids

One community, five floor plans, different equipment each. Bid them all as a package with volume pricing.

You know the drill.

Builder emails a ZIP file. You open the load calcs, squint at the tonnage, flip through the bid sheet, manually type equipment into your spreadsheet. Look up pricing on three different supplier portals. Guess at ductwork. Estimate labor from feel.

Multiply that by 5 floor plans, 3 communities, and the deadline is tomorrow.

RNCBids does the extraction, lookup, and math. You make the decisions that actually win the job — pricing strategy, package options, which builders to chase.
