Request competitive bids from multiple vendors, compare them side by side, and convert the winner into a work order.
Last updated 2026-07-07
Inside a project, open the Orders tab and switch to Bid Requests. Build the scope you want priced, then send it to one or many vendors. Attach plans, specs, or photos so subs have everything they need to quote accurately.
Send the same bid request to several vendors in a single action. Breche keeps them grouped so you can watch responses arrive and compare apples to apples.
Each vendor opens their vendor portal and submits a response — their own line-item pricing, notes, any additional scope, and an estimated duration. A request moves from pending → submitted when they respond, and you can request a revision if something's off.
Open the bid comparison to see every vendor's response side by side, with the lowest and highest price on each line highlighted. Accept the bid you want and reject the rest.
Once you accept a bid, click Convert to Work Order to carry the vendor's pricing into a new work order — no re-keying. The numbers can also inform your own estimate to the customer.
