Scope, takeoffs, subcontractor numbers, assumptions and the final bid remain with your team.
Keep Your Estimating Team Focused on Pricing. Framework Runs the Public-Works Bid Admin.
Framework Growth Partners gives commercial contractors a structured public-works bid administration function without adding another full-time seat. We organize the opportunity pipeline, requirements, addenda, deadlines and administrative bid documents so your estimating team can stay focused on scope, pricing and the work only they can do.
Public Bids Create Work That Has Nothing to Do With Estimating
Addenda change. Forms accumulate. Requirements sit across solicitation documents. Deadlines overlap. Certifications need signatures. Someone has to keep the administrative side of the pursuit organized while the estimator is still responsible for building the number.
Your company controls bid/no-bid, approvals, certifications, authorization and final submission.
The opportunity, requirements, addenda, deadlines and administrative documents stay organized.
That is the lane Framework Growth Partners is built to run.

Fractional Bid Desk FAQ
Does Framework perform the estimating?
No. The contractor retains all estimating, takeoffs, labor and material assumptions, subcontractor pricing, markups, margins and final bid amounts.
Does Framework submit bids for the contractor?
The contractor controls the final submission. Any submission assistance is provided only where the solicitation or procurement system permits it and after written contractor authorization.
How many active bid packages are included?
The monthly engagement includes support for up to two complete active bid packages. Additional packages require separate written scope and pricing based on complexity and timeline.
Can a private-commercial contractor use the service to enter public work?
Yes, when the contractor is seriously evaluating public opportunities in Washington, Oregon or Idaho and needs an administrative structure for monitoring, requirements and bid-document control. A fit call is available to discuss readiness before purchasing.
