A new addition to this
issue is the Reader’s Forum. Although
it is a glowing recommendation for BB&D in this issue, it is our
intention to publish comments that we receive from our readers and business
associates in the community about whatever is on your mind! We want to know what the design/build
community is thinking, especially in the Columbus area. What do you want to see in future
issues? Do you have any suggestions
that will make our publication better, more interesting, etc.? What’s your opinion? Please email me at ksawyer@basicblueprint.com Krystal Sawyer- Editor—The Cornerstone *The

Any firm that has ever undertaken a large private or public bid can tell you what an enormous use of time and resources are involved before the project begins - in distributing the pre-bid documentation. Deposit check collection, bid package numbering, addenda disbursement, bidder notification, set returns and check disbursement can literally take the resources of one employee throughout the entire process! At Basic Blue & Digital Printing, we look forward to each and every package. It is our CORE business, and we truly excel at it. In 2001, we started online bid pack |

age distribution
utilizing our website www.basicblueprint.com and its success has prompted other reprographics
companies to provide the same service.
“Making the bidder’s list
available online has received the most attention from our website visitors,
says Dave Young systems administrator for BB&D. “This saves them a tremendous amount of
time and allows them to determine who will be competitively bidding.” Additionally, the
architects and CM firms involved in the process can see on a daily basis how
many bidders have shown interest in the project. |

“Having access to a continually updated plan holders list was an
invaluable tool during the bidding process for the East Muskingum new Middle
School. By reviewing the list daily, I
could determine which trades had sufficient interest and which trades needed
additional effort very early in the bidding process” according to Rick Milhoan, Project
Manager for PCS Regency, the Construction Manager for the OSFC and the East
Muskingum Local School District. Visit us online at www.basicblueprint.com
