Tendering, Risk & Reporting in OpenConstructionERP

Tendering workflow

1. Prepare the tender BOQ — from the estimate (see oce-estimate-boq), export GAEB X83/X84 for the market.
2. Issue to bidders — track who received, who responded, deadlines.
3. Bid comparison — normalize bids to the BOQ structure (same items, same units), compare line-by-line and totals; flag outliers per line.
4. Risk review — attach risks (cost, schedule, contractual) to BOQ sections; score likelihood × impact.
5. Award — convert the winning bid to the contract baseline (BOQ + schedule freeze).

Risk management

• Risk register per project: description, owner, probability, impact, mitigation, status.
• Risks linked to BOQ lines and tasks — a risk accepted changes the estimate and schedule together.
• Reports: top risks, exposure (risk × contingency), trend.
