Subcontractor quotes, compared side by side

Drafts the request for quotation for each subcontractor package, then compares the replies against the scope and each other. Your estimator or buyer sends the requests and picks the subcontractor.

Drafts and compares. Your estimator or buyer decides
Problem

Each subcontractor package needs a request with the right scope, drawings and deadline. Replies come back in different formats, with exclusions and assumptions in the small print. Comparing them means lining them up by hand.

What it does

YP assembles the request per package from the scope, drawings and specification, and drafts it for the subcontractors you choose. When replies arrive, it reads each quote and builds a comparison on price, scope, exclusions and validity.

How it works

See exactly how the work gets done.

The work starts for each package that is ready. A package that is marked ready in your project folder starts the run.

One request for quotation is drafted for each subcontractor. Scope, drawings, specification sections and deadline go into the draft, and your estimator or buyer sends it.

Every reply from a subcontractor is read when it arrives. The quote can be a PDF, a spreadsheet or the body of an email.

The quotes are compared like for like. Prices are set against the same scope, and exclusions and assumptions are listed. Missing scope gets a plug price from your rates, marked as such.

Your estimator or buyer decides who gets the work. They review the comparison and choose the subcontractor, and nothing is awarded without them.

The outcome

Your estimators and buyers compare quotes that are already lined up. Every exclusion is visible before the choice is made.

01
1 request per subcontractor

Scope, drawings, specification and deadline in one package

02
Quotes compared like-for-like

Price, scope, exclusions and validity, side by side

03
Estimator or buyer awards

Sends every request and picks the subcontractor

For your numbers

YP compares every subcontractor quote against the same scope, so exclusions are priced in before you award, not paid as extras later.

How it runs

Designed for enterprise.

Private

Runs on your infrastructure. Drawings, prices, client and claims data never train a model.

Explainable

Not a black box. An AI auditor checks that every task was done as intended and proposes improvements.

Traceable

Every value links to the document, rule or record it came from. Every step is logged. A named person approves anything that leaves the building.

Your systems

Works in your ERP, CargoWise, policy system, GIS and file shares. Nothing is replaced.
