Demolition scope strips out the Level 6 riser — the asbestos survey never checked it and assumes asbestos

A compliance requirement the pack does not let you price or certify against.

Draft the RFI1 of the 3 that need you first
RFI-002urgentTo: Principal / Superintendent

The Hazardous Materials Survey (§6.4) excluded the Level 6 services riser and presumes it contains ACM, yet the Demolition Scope (§4.6) requires demolition within that riser. Please confirm whether intrusive asbestos inspection and clearance of the Level 6 riser will be completed by the Principal prior to award, or is to be included in this tender.

It checks every document against the others. That’s where the expensive mistakes hide.

In the platform demo it finds 10 problems across 17 of its 24 documents — like a BOQ that prices 42 doors when the door schedule shows 47. Pick one to see what each document says.

Every problem comes with how sure it is, and what to double-check before you rely on it.

Two schedule entries (D44, D45) are annotated 'existing to remain'. If those are excluded the gap narrows to three leaves — confirm inclusions before claiming the full five.

Every addendum, checked.

When an addendum comes in, it finds what the change affects — like a BOQ still pricing the carpet the addendum took out.

A straight answer on the bid.

Whether to go for it, and what to sort out before you price. No made-up win odds.

CommonMind’s viewProceed with caution

Two documents disagree on scope, and a fire rating the drawings call up is absent from the specification.

Before you price

Qualify the unrated items and resolve the scope conflicts before pricing.

It remembers your last job.

When something comes up your firm has dealt with before, you see what you decided last time and how it went.
