hi all
For your respective market, do u get enough time between RFP and bidding (unite price contract) for making a detailed plan, with multiple scenario to see the best optimization between costs vs. duration.
I am asking that because it is a common practice here to separate the process of estimating a project for bidding and the process of planning, should they work together!!! As the estimator knows all the costs (direct, indirect overhead) and the production rate to establish project duration, actually he knows every thing related to the project? So who actually do the plan?
Please educate me & and guide me.
