Kalvsvik now reads bills of quantities in Excel

Bills of quantities and price lists in Excel are now read together with the rest of the tender package, directly from SharePoint.

Kalvsvik Intelligence now reads Excel files in the tender package. Bills of quantities, price lists and schedules of rates are read together with the administrative provisions and the technical specifications.

The agents compare the quantities with the specifications and flag when they don't match, such as an item that is missing from the bill of quantities but appears in the specification. Every finding links to the row in the Excel file.

What's new

• Excel files (.xlsx) are read from SharePoint, OneDrive and Google Drive.
• Differences between the bill of quantities and the specification are flagged with a source.
• Totals per trade, as a basis for enquiries to subcontractors.
