Bid Package - Price Breakdown

Use the Price Breakdown page to list the specific cost elements for the goods and services bidders will include in their proposals. Most Price Breakdown information appears as part of two other Proliance documents used by bidders: invitations and proposals. Any changes made to line items in the Price Breakdown grid in the package are immediately reflected in the Price Breakdown grids in related invitations and proposals.

Some information in the package's Price Breakdown grid is for internal use only, and only appears in the package:

• Unit Price
• Estimated Amount
• Sort Order

On the Price Breakdown page, use the following fields to describe the line items included in the Price Breakdown grid:

• Description: Type more details about the price breakdown items that appear on this page and how the bidder should enter their information about the requested bid items.

• Bid Currency: Enter a currency in which the bidders will submit their proposal. Click the Magnifying Glass icon to select the currency. The default bid currency is the default currency of the workspace.

The following columns appear for each line item. At the bottom left of the Price Breakdown grid, the Total Estimated Amount area displays the sum of all values in the Estimated Amount column.

• Line No: Enter a number that identifies the line item.
• Material or Work Description: Enter a description of the line item.
• Type: Choose either Lump Sum or Unit Price. When Unit Price is selected, the Qty, UOM, Unit Price and Unit Code columns become active and are required fields.
• Qty: Enter the number of units for the proposal item. This field is available only when the Type column is set to Unit Price.
• UOM: Enter the units of measure (UOM) for each line item. This field is available only when the Type column is set to Unit Price.
• Unit Price: Enter the value of each unit. This field is available only when the Type column is set to Unit Price. This field is not shared with bidders and is used to set expectations of pricing.
• Estimated Amount: Displays the total value of the line item. When Unit Price is selected in the Type column, this field is read-only and displays the total of units multiplied by unit price. When Lump Sum is selected in the Type column, you can enter the sum of the line item directly. This information is not shared with bidders and is used to set expectations of pricing.
• Unit Code: Optionally Click the Magnifying Glass icon to select a unit code for the line item. This field is available only when the Type column is set to Unit Price
• Sort Order: Enter a number that represents the row's sort order when the Price Breakdown grid appears on the Bid Package, Bid Invitation and Bid Proposal documents. To see the results of the sort, refresh the package.
• Notes: Enter additional details regarding the line item.
