How to Submit an "Alternate" Bid Item

Use this feature if you want to propose a different product or method from what the General Contractor originally requested. For example, if a specific brand of material is listed but you have an equivalent alternative with a better price or faster availability, you can submit it as an "Alternate."

  1. In the Bid Items section, find the line item.
  2. In the Will Bid column, select "Alternate" from the dropdown.
  3. A new set of fields, "Alternate Product Details," will appear below that line item.
Fill in the details: Alternate Product Name, Lead Time, Proposed Vendor, etc. .
