Upload project documents: specs, schedules, addenda

PDF specs, Word schedules, equipment pull-lists. BuildVision reads them all.

Equipment extracted and organized by division, system, and spec section

HVAC, electrical, plumbing organized separately. Quantities, specs, and alternates identified. Everything is structured for RFQs.

RFQs drafted with the right scope for the right vendors

Division-specific RFQs sent to appropriate trade suppliers. Your supplier history and pricing preferences attached automatically.

How it runs

Upload specs Friday at 5pm. By Monday morning, RFQs are sent, two vendor responses are in, and a follow-up is queued for the third.

Partial quotes get flagged. Missing line items get a second request. You see which suppliers responded and which went dark, without chasing emails.

When addenda land mid-bid, the equipment list updates. Affected RFQs get revised and resent. You review the changes, not rebuild the package.

Measured and published
