Prepare and send out the tender request with ease.

Main contractors have many suppliers and often mainly work with subcontractors. This means you must get bids from your suppliers before the work starts.

Creating a tender request is easier than sending one via e-mail. You enter your subject and description, select the documents you want to share with your subcontractors and select the subcontractors from your subcontractor database.

The subcontractors then submit their bids with the structure you defined. They can also make changes to prices, job descriptions, and quantities themselves. When analysing, you are highlighted by the changes to quantities and prices.

Compare the offers from your subcontractors side by side

You can see exactly who looked at the tender request and the documents. In addition to that, you can also clearly see who already submitted their bid and who didn’t.

If you need more bids to make a decision, you can easily follow up with the subcontractors who have not read the documents or made a bid yet.

All bids are received in one format and are ready to be compared line-by-line.

When you find a bid that you are happy with, you can easily convert it into a contract and start tracking its fulfilment.

"Planyard's integration with Xero has streamlined our project financials, providing clear insights and saving us valuable time. It's easy to use and keeps all commitments organized for seamless financial tracking."

Sharon Brown Financial Controller · Empower Renewables · Dublin, Ireland

"Planyard is basically a live CVR and saves time by making Excel unnecessary. Once a project’s set up, I can rely on Planyard to stay organized without spreadsheets."

Claire Hill Quantity Surveyor · Brown & Bancroft Interiors · Bolton, United Kingdom

"Planyard is exactly what I’m after as a business owner: a good-value system that keeps everything in one place, saves me money and makes sure I’m not losing any money on projects. As a businessman, that’s a no-brainer."

Lee Covington Owner · E&N Group Ltd · London, United Kingdom

"I’m confident that we can manage multiple projects effectively. We’re currently running three fairly large ones, and the system makes it very clear and easy to manage all of them at once."

Graham Eastwood Office Manager · Karringtons Ltd · Kent, United Kingdom

"I chose Planyard because it stood out as the most straightforward and intuitive option on the market. I really wanted a tool that would simplify our existing processes and make everything more efficient, rather than switching to a system that was far too complicated for us to use on a daily basis."

Grant Collins Quantity Surveyor · Skyler Contracting · Kent, United Kingdom

"Planyard has completely replaced my CVR process. Cost Value Reconciliation is essentially about tracking your budget against your actual spend to see exactly what remains, and that functionality is the absolute essence of the central core of Planyard."

Ian Holford Managing Director · Higgihaus Developments · Bristol, United Kingdom

"For me Planyard is essentially the go to software for SMBs. There are other software packages out there that are a large investment upfront with a significant monthly cost. These are all potential solutions once you get to a very large business but they are not a solution for SMBs."

Paul Howarth Experienced FD/Consultant · Live Management Accounts

"Timewise, on a single project, I'd probably save 6 to 8 hours—essentially a full day every month. When it comes to processing monthly payments, it saves me a solid day, perhaps even a day and a half, just in sorting through the invoices. Saving a day and a half of my time means the system pays for itself time and time again."

Paul Treweek Quantity Surveyor & Estimator · DPTQS Ltd · Cornwall, United Kingdom
