Beginning March 12, 2022, vendor "Hot Sheet" pricing has be added to the Anywhere Databases to ensure estimates are being competitively bid.
This pricing will be displayed in the [Net Cost] column within the Extension.
Previous process:
With the volatility of commodity pricing over the past couple of years, Trade Service's Average Market Price (AMP) was removed from the [Net Cost] column within the Accubid Anywhere Extension. Currently, the material pricing in the extension references Trade Service's Column 3 Change Order pricing.
🎯
The Estimating Team will still be required to run the Vendor Pricing tool for all competitively bid projects.
It is recommended that Vendor Pricing is run within all estimates.

Pricing will be updated once pricing is posted to Trade Service's site.
Typically, updates will be performed weekly.
"Hot Sheet" pricing can be modified or removed if needed:
Simply remove the discount in the [Disc.] column.
Cost adjustments can also be made within the [Cost Adj %] column.
Additionally, the [Net Cost] column can be overwritten with any value.
