Line up the scope
We organize requirements, inclusions, exclusions, allowances, assumptions, and qualifications into a consistent comparison.
About BrightBid
We make bids comparable.
BrightBid levels contractor proposals against the same scope so you can see meaningful differences before you award the work.
What this is really about
Align the scope before price decides the room.
The industry calls this bid leveling. In plain English, it means making sure every bidder is being judged against the same work.
- You start with
- One request or specification and 2-10 proposals, each written and priced in its own format.
- We make comparable
- What each bidder included, excluded, assumed, left unclear, or answered differently.
- You finish with
- An apples-to-apples view of the scope, plus the questions that still need answers before award.
A focused service, not another platform.
BrightBid is a bid leveling service from Apptillion, built around human review. We are here to do one job well: turn a stack of unlike proposals into a comparison you can inspect, edit, and use.
What we do with your bid package.
Our work is evidence organization: read the package, normalize the scope, show the differences, and make the open questions easier to act on.
Trace the evidence
Important entries point back to the source document so your team can check the wording instead of trusting an opaque score.
Surface scope gaps
We flag missing or unclear scope and prepare focused clarification questions to take back to each bidder.
Return files you control
You receive a source-linked PDF for review and an editable spreadsheet for notes, adjustments, and internal discussion.
Better evidence, not a vendor verdict.
BrightBid does not select or rank a vendor, validate market pricing, negotiate terms, certify compliance, or promise that every contractual risk has been found.
The final decision stays with you and the qualified professionals who understand the project. We provide a clearer, more defensible starting point for that decision.
