Pricing by Decision Stage, Not Service Type


Proposabid operates between early conviction and final commitment —
structuring scope, assumptions, and decision logic before capital is locked. 


We don’t price construction or repairs.

We price the moment before decisions become irreversible.

Proposabid operates across capital decisions — regardless of asset type.

The structure stays the same. 


The context changes. 

The asset type changes.


The decision risk does not.


Select your context…   Then identify where you are in the decision timeline below.

Owners / Asset Managers

Get in Touch

CapEx Decision Structure, Validation & Governance 


You’re not managing projects —
you’re accountable for how capital decisions hold up across:


  • Approval 
  • Execution 
  • Time 
  • Scrutiny


🔻 HOW OWNERS/ ASSET MANAGERS ENGAGES


Most engagements begin when visibility or consistency across projects becomes unclear.


✔ Portfolio-level reviews
✔ Pre-approval validation
✔ System-level standardization
✔ Ongoing governance support


“Confidence at the moment capital is approved — and control after it is deployed.”
 

🔵 DECISION DEFENSIBILITY


CapEx Decision Support

Package


(Before approval / owner sign-off)


Use when:

  • A decision is about to be approved —
  • but you’re not fully confident it will hold up under review
  • Owner or IC scrutiny is expected
  • Multiple options exist but trade-offs aren’t clearly defined
  • You need to present a recommendation that won’t get challenged later


What’s happening here:

A recommendation is being made — but the structure behind it isn’t fully defined.

 

What’s at risk:

  • Weak justification for vendor selection
  • Unclear trade-offs between options
  • Missing or undocumented assumptions
  • Exposure during owner review, IC scrutiny, or escalation


Where Proposabid fits:
We structure the decision so it can stand on its own —clear, defensible, and understandable by anyone reviewing it later. 


What you get:

  • Decision summary with clear rationale
  • Trade-off visibility across all options
  • Risk and assumption documentation
  • Owner / IC-ready decision materials
  • Defensible recommendation structure 

 

Result:

  • Confident approvals without back-and-forth
  • Clear, defensible rationale behind the decision
  • Reduced risk of second-guessing or escalation
  • Decisions that hold up across time, turnover, and review


Why clients engage here:

Because eventually someone asks:
"Why did you choose this?" 

And if that answer isn’t structured — risk surfaces immediately.


Typical Engagement Range: $8K – $20K per approval cycle


🟡 BID NORMALIZATION


Vendor Comparability Audit

 

(After bids are received — before selection)


Use when:

  • You’ve received multiple bids —
  • but they don’t line up cleanly
  • Numbers are close, but the scope or assumptions feel inconsistent
  • You need to make a recommendation — but don’t trust the comparability
  • You want to avoid selecting a vendor based on incomplete or misaligned inputs


What’s happening here:

Multiple bids come in — they appear close on paper, but are built on different scopes, assumptions, and pricing logic.


What’s at risk:

  • Hidden scope gaps between vendors
  • Misaligned allowances and exclusions
  • Pricing based on different interpretations of the same project
  • High risk of selecting a vendor under false comparability


Where Proposabid fits:

We normalize bids into a true apples-to-apples comparison — so decisions are based on aligned inputs, not assumptions.


What you get:

  • Bid comparability matrix (side-by-side alignment)
  • Scope and assumption alignment across all bids
  • Allowance and exclusion transparency
  • Cost variance explanation (why numbers differ)
  • Comparable cost structure across vendors


Result:

  • Clear, apples-to-apples comparison across all vendors
  • Confidence that you’re selecting based on real differences — not distortions
  • Reduced risk of change orders and budget surprises
  • A defensible recommendation you can stand behind with ownership


Why clients engage here:

Because selecting a vendor off misaligned bids leads to:

  • Change orders
  • Budget overruns
  • Owner scrutiny and second-guessing


Typical Engagement Range: $10K – $22K per decision (or $3.5K – $7K for smaller bid packages)



🟢 PRE-BID STRUCTURE


Scope & Assumption Structuring


(Before bids are requested — highest impact point)


Use when:
You want confidence before bids even exist


What’s happening here:

A scope is being drafted — often quickly, based on prior projects, field input, or loosely defined direction.


What’s at risk:

  • Vendors pricing different interpretations of the scope
  • Missing or implied scope elements
  • Inconsistent assumptions across bidders
  • PMs forced to interpret what the owner actually meant


Where Proposabid fits:

We structure the scope and assumptions before bids go out — so every vendor is pricing the same thing under the same conditions.


What you get:

  • Defined scope aligned to owner intent
  • Standardized bid structure vendors must follow
  • Assumption alignment across all bidders
  • Apples-to-apples bid template (ready to issue)
  • Scope completeness and gap check
  • Owner-ready clarification memo


Result: 

  • Clean, comparable bids the first time
  • No more guessing what the owner meant
  • Fewer rebids and faster approvals
  • A clear, structured starting point for the entire decision


Why clients engage here:

Because if inputs aren’t aligned —
comparability is impossible, and the decision will break later.


Typical Engagement Range:

  • $4K – $8K per project (fast-turn structuring)
  • $8K – $18K per project or batch (full scope architecture)



🟣 PORTFOLIO CONSISTENCY


CapEx Decision 

Consistency Review


(Across multiple properties / governance layer) 


Use when:
Similar projects produce different outcomes across your portfolio.


What’s happening here:

Similar projects are being executed across different properties — but decisions are being structured differently each time.


What’s at risk:

  • Inconsistent scopes across assets
  • Unexplained cost variation between similar projects
  • Vendor inconsistency and pricing variability

No portfolio-level comparability or governance


Where Proposabid fits:

We create a consistent decision structure across your portfolio — so similar projects are defined, evaluated, and approved the same way.


What you get:

  • Cross-property scope and cost comparability
  • Standardized decision and bid structures
  • Cost structure alignment across assets
  • Variance explanation between projects
  • Portfolio-level visibility into decision patterns


Result: 

  • Consistent outcomes across similar projects
  • Clear visibility into cost and scope differences
  • Reduced variability and operational friction
  • Portfolio-level control — not project-by-project guessing


Why clients engage here:

Because inconsistency across projects leads to:

  • Budget unpredictability
  • Operational friction
  • Loss of trust from ownership


Typical Engagement Range:

  • $12K – $30K depending on portfolio scope
  • (or $6K – $15K/month for ongoing intake + standardization support)




⚫ FULL CORE 1–6 DEPLOYMENT


End-to-End CapEx Decision Architecture

 

(Across the full decision lifecycle — from scope to traceability)


Use when:
You want to control how every CapEx decision is structured — not just review them.


What’s happening here:

CapEx decisions are being handled across multiple teams, vendors, and phases — without a unified structure connecting them.


What’s at risk:

  • Gaps between scope, bids, and decisions
  • Inconsistent inputs across projects
  • Lack of comparability between vendors
  • Decisions that cannot be clearly explained later
  • Reliance on individuals instead of a repeatable system


Where Proposabid fits:

We run the full decision architecture — from initial scope through final approval and traceability — so every phase is structurally aligned.


What you get:

  • Pre-bid scope and assumption structuring
  • Vendor sourcing and bid coordination
  • Bid normalization and comparability analysis
  • Decision support and approval-ready documentation
  • Full decision traceability package (audit-ready)
  • End-to-end alignment across all phases


Result: 

  • One continuous system from scope → sourcing → decision → traceability
  • No gaps between phases or teams
  • Decisions that hold up across time, turnover, and scrutiny
    A repeatable structure for every CapEx decision 


Why clients engage here:

Because managing parts of the process still leaves exposure — only a fully structured system ensures the decision holds up end-to-end.


Typical Engagement Range:

  • $18K – $45K+ per project
  • $40K – $150K+ for multi-project / portfolio deployment

CapEx Structuring, Vendor Alignment & Execution Support


 “Most engagements start when a project already feels messy — we step in to structure it before it gets worse.” 


You’re not making one decision —
you’re making the same decision across multiple properties:


  • Under time pressure 
  • With different vendors 
  • Based on owner directives you didn’t define 


👉 And you’re still the one

held accountable.


🔻 HOW PROPERTY MANAGEMENT ENGAGES


Most PM teams don’t start from scratch — they enter at the point where pressure already exists.


  • ✔ One-off project support
  • ✔ Recurring CapEx cycles
  • ✔ Portfolio-wide standardization


 “We remove the burden of translating owner intent into contractor reality.” 



🟢 PRE-BID STRUCTURE 


CapEx Scope & Assumption Structuring 

 

(Before bids go out — highest impact, fastest win)


Use when:
Owner says: “Get bids for this.”


What’s happening here:

An owner initiates a project —

but the scope is being interpreted, not clearly defined.


What’s at risk:

  • Vendors pricing different interpretations of the scope
  • Missing or implied scope elements
  • Inconsistent assumptions across bidders
  • PMs forced to guess what the owner actually meant


Where Proposabid fits:

We define the scope and assumptions before bids go out —so every vendor is pricing the same thing under the same conditions.


What you get:

  • Defined scope aligned to owner intent
  • Standardized bid structure vendors must follow
  • Apples-to-apples bid template (ready to issue)
  • Scope completeness and gap check
  • Owner-ready clarification memo


Result:

  • Clear, aligned scope before vendors engage
  • Bids that are directly comparable the first time
  • Fewer rebids, faster decisions, cleaner approvals
  • No more guesswork translating owner intent


Why clients engage here:

Because if the inputs aren’t aligned —

the bids will never be comparable, and the decision will break later.


Typical Engagement Range:

  • $4K – $8K per project (fast-turn structuring)
  • $8K – $18K per project or batch (full scope architecture)





🟡 BID NORMALIZATION


Vendor Bid Comparability Audit


(After bids are received — before selection)


Use when:
You have 3–6 bids that don’t match.


What’s happening here:

Multiple bids come in — but they are built on different scopes, assumptions, and pricing logic.


What’s at risk:

  • Hidden scope gaps between vendors
  • Misaligned allowances and exclusions
  • Pricing based on different interpretations of the same project
  • High risk of selecting a vendor under false comparability


Where Proposabid fits:

We normalize bids into a true apples-to-apples comparison —

so the decision is based on aligned inputs, not assumptions.


What you get:

  • Bid comparability matrix (side-by-side alignment)
  • Scope and assumption alignment across all bids
  • Allowance and exclusion transparency
  • Cost variance explanation (why numbers differ)
  • Decision support summary (owner-ready)


Result:

  • True apples-to-apples comparison across all bids
  • Confidence in vendor selection based on real differences
  • Reduced risk of change orders and budget surprises
  • A clear, defensible recommendation for ownership


Why clients engage here:

Because selecting a vendor off misaligned bids leads to:

  • Change orders
  • Budget overruns
  • Owner scrutiny and second-guessing


Typical Engagement Range:

  • $3.5K – $7K per bid package
  • $10K – $22K for full decision support engagements



🔵 DECISION DEFENSIBILITY


Decision Support + Rescue Engagement


(Before approval — or when the decision is being questioned)


Use when:

  • Owner questions your recommendation 
  • Project starts drifting 
  • You need to explain decisions you didn’t fully structure 


What’s happening here:

A recommendation is being made — or has already been made — but the structure behind it is unclear or incomplete.


What’s at risk:

  • Weak justification for vendor selection
  • Unclear trade-offs between options
  • Missing or undocumented assumptions
  • Exposure during owner review, escalation, or audit
  • PMs forced to defend decisions they didn’t fully structure


Where Proposabid fits:

We step in to either structure the decision before approval — or reconstruct it after the fact so it can be clearly explained.


What you get:

  • Decision summary with clear rationale
  • Trade-off visibility across all options
  • Risk and assumption documentation
  • Owner-ready decision materials
  • Reconstruction of decision logic (if already underway)


Result:

  • Clear, structured rationale behind every decision
  • Confidence presenting recommendations to ownership
  • Reduced risk of escalation, second-guessing, or audit exposure
  • Decisions that can be explained — not defended


Why clients engage here:

Because eventually someone asks:

👉 “Why did you choose this?”

And if that answer isn’t structured — risk surfaces immediately.


Typical Engagement Range:

  • $7K – $12K for rescue / reconstruction engagements
  • $8K – $20K for pre-approval decision support



🟣 RECURRING CAPEX INTAKE DESK


+ Multi-Property Standardization


(Ongoing — across projects and assets)


Use when:
You’re managing constant CapEx across multiple properties.


What’s happening here:

CapEx projects are happening continuously across multiple properties —

but each one is being handled differently depending on the manager, vendor, or urgency.


What’s at risk:

  • Inconsistent scopes across similar projects
  • Unexplained cost variation between properties
  • Regional teams reinventing every project
  • No standardized process for structuring decisions
  • Operational drag as volume increases


Where Proposabid fits:

We act as your centralized structuring layer for anything “bigger than maintenance” — ensuring every project is defined, aligned, and ready before vendor engagement.


How it works:

  • PM sends projects →
  • We structure scope + assumptions →
  • You issue clean, standardized scopes to vendors


What you get (ongoing):

  • Scope framing for every project
  • Budget sanity checks before bids go out
  • Standardized templates across all properties
  • Vendor alignment to structured scope
  • Cross-property consistency and comparability
  • Owner-ready documentation for every decision


Result:

  • You scale without hiring a CapEx manager 
  • Regional teams stop reinventing projects 
  • Owners trust your process


Why clients engage here:

Because scaling CapEx without structure leads to:

  • Inconsistent outcomes
  • Operational inefficiency
  • Loss of trust from ownership


Typical Engagement Range:

$6K – $15K/month depending on volume




⚫ FULL CORE 1–6 SYSTEM


CapEx Structuring + Sourcing + Decision Layer


(End-to-end — from initial scope through final approval and traceability)


Use when:
You want everything handled end-to-end.


What’s happening here:

CapEx decisions are being handled across multiple phases — with different teams, vendors, and inputs — without a unified structure connecting them.


What’s at risk:

  • Gaps between scope, bids, and decisions
  • Inconsistent inputs across projects
  • Lack of comparability between vendors
  • Decisions that cannot be clearly explained later
  • Reliance on individual interpretation instead of a system


Where Proposabid fits:

We run the full decision architecture — from scope through sourcing, comparison, approval, and traceability — so every phase is structurally aligned.


What you get:

  • Pre-bid scope and assumption structuring
  • Vendor sourcing and bid coordination
  • Bid normalization and comparability analysis
  • Decision support and approval-ready documentation
  • Full decision traceability package (audit-ready)
  • End-to-end alignment across all phases


Result:

  • No gaps between phases 
  • No reliance on PM interpretation 
  • Decisions hold up across time and ownership


Why clients engage here:

Because managing parts of the process still leaves exposure —only a fully structured system ensures the decision holds up end-to-end.


Typical Engagement Range:

  • $18K – $45K+ per project
  • $40K – $150K+ for multi-project / portfolio deployment

CapEx Validation, Investment Confidence & Decision Governance


“Most engagements begin when a deal looks right — but hasn’t been structurally validated.” 


You’re not evaluating construction —
you’re evaluating whether the capital decision behind it will hold up.


  • Across underwriting 
  • Across approval 
  • Across time 
  • Under scrutiny 


👉 And once capital is deployed — you’re no longer evaluating. You’re exposed.


🔻 HOW INVESTORS ENGAGE


Most engagements begin when a deal feels right — but hasn’t been structurally validated.


✔ Single deal diligence
✔ Pre-IC validation
✔ Portfolio-level governance


 “We ensure the capital decision  survives beyond the underwriting model.” 



🟤 PRE-COMMITMENT VALIDATION


CapEx Assumption Stress Test


(Before capital is committed / during diligence/ pre-close)

 

Use when:
A deal looks viable — but CapEx assumptions haven’t been structurally tested.


What’s happening here:

A deal appears viable —but the CapEx assumptions behind it have not been structurally tested.


What’s at risk:

  • Underwriting based on incomplete or misaligned scope
  • CapEx budgets that don’t reflect real execution conditions
  • Returns dependent on assumptions that may not hold
  • Exposure immediately after closing if assumptions break


Where Proposabid fits:

We stress-test the CapEx plan against real conditions — so the investment is based on validated inputs, not modeled assumptions.


What you get:

  • Assumption validation vs real cost conditions
  • Variance exposure across key cost drivers
  • “What must be true” for returns to hold
  • Contingency adequacy and risk coverage review


Result:

  • You enter IC with real confidence — not modeled confidence 
  • Reduced risk of post-close surprises


Why clients engage here:

Because once capital is committed —

the ability to correct bad assumptions disappears.


Typical Engagement Range:

$12K – $25K per asset (diligence / pre-close timeline)



🟡INPUT EQUIVALENCE


Bid & Scope Comparability Audit


(When reviewing sponsor or operator budgets)

 

Use when:
Budgets or bids are presented — but not structurally aligned.


What’s happening here:

Budgets or bids are presented — but they are built on different scopes, assumptions, and structural definitions.


What’s at risk:

  • False comparability between options
  • Hidden scope gaps and misaligned assumptions
  • Allowances and exclusions distorting true cost
  • Decisions based on presentation quality instead of actual alignment


Where Proposabid fits:

We normalize inputs into a structurally equivalent framework —so you’re evaluating real comparability, not narrative alignment.


What you get:

  • Scope and assumption alignment across all options
  • Allowance and exclusion transparency
  • Structural comparability across bids or budgets
  • Pricing distortion detection
  • Clear, side-by-side evaluation framework


Result:

  • You evaluate deals based on truth — not presentation quality 


Why clients engage here:

Because if the inputs aren’t equivalent —

the decision is being made on distorted information.


Typical Engagement Range:

  • $10K – $22K per review
  • (or bundled within broader diligence / decision support engagements)



🔵DECISION DEFENSIBILITY


Investment Committee Support Package


(Before IC approval /  prior to capital  deployment)

 

Use when:
The deal is being presented — but the decision structure isn’t fully clear.


What’s happening here:

A deal is being presented for approval —

but the structure behind the decision is incomplete or unclear.


What’s at risk:

  • Weak justification for investment decisions
  • Unclear trade-offs between options
  • Hidden or undocumented assumptions
  • Delays or friction during IC review
  • Reduced confidence in capital deployment


Where Proposabid fits:

We structure the decision into a clear, defensible, IC-ready format — so it can be evaluated, approved, and understood without ambiguity.


What you get:

  • Decision framing clarity (what is being decided and why)
  • Trade-off and assumption visibility across options
  • Risk acceptance and exposure documentation
  • IC-ready support materials and exhibits
  • Defensible recommendation structure


Result:

  • Faster approvals 
  • Stronger conviction 
  • Fewer internal challenges


Why clients engage here:

Because capital doesn’t get approved on intuition —it gets approved on structure.


Typical Engagement Range:

$10K – $22K per approval cycle



🟣TRACEABILITY & AUDIT DEFENSE


Capital Decision Traceability System


(Post-approval - portfolio governance and audit readiness)


Use when:
Decisions need to be explainable later — to investors, auditors, or new stakeholders.


What’s happening here:

Decisions have been made and projects are underway — but the logic behind those decisions is not fully captured or structured.


What’s at risk:

  • Inability to reconstruct decision logic later
  • Exposure during audit, turnover, or investor review
  • Loss of institutional knowledge over time
  • Decisions that rely on memory instead of documentation


Where Proposabid fits:

We capture and structure the full decision context at the moment of approval — so it remains explainable long after execution begins.


What you get:

  • Decision traceability memo
  • Evidence register
  • Authorization snapshot
  • Decision timeline and context mapping
  • Reconstruction-ready documentation


Result:

  • Decisions remain explainable years later 
  • No loss of institutional knowledge 
  • Audit / investor review readiness 


Why clients engage here:

Because the project may finish — but the decision gets reviewed years later.


Typical Engagement Range:

$15K – $35K+ depending on portfolio scope

CapEx Validation Across Irreversible Deal Moments


 “We step in after conviction starts — but before mistakes become contractual.” 


You don’t lose money on bad builds —you lose money on bad assumptions before the build begins.


👉 We operate between financial conviction and irreversible capital commitment.



🔻 HOW DEVELOPERS ENGAGE

Most developers don’t engage us at the beginning —
they engage when the deal starts to feel real.


✔(LOI, pre-GC, pre-lender) to validate one critical decision before it becomes irreversible.

✔ during active deals where timing matters and assumptions need to be tested quickly.

✔ multiple decision points — from acquisition through contractor selection and capital approval.


 “We validate the assumptions that determine whether the deal works.” 




🟤 PRE-COMMITMENT VALIDATION


LOI → PSA CapEx Stress Test


(After LOI, before hard money / PSA execution)


Use when:

  • You’re under LOI and moving toward hard money
  • The deal looks viable — but assumptions haven’t been stress-tested
  • You need confidence before capital becomes non-refundable
  • You want to validate the deal before it becomes irreversible


What’s happening here:

The deal feels real and underwriting is modeled — but the cost assumptions behind it have not been structurally tested.


What’s at risk:

  • Land basis tied to weak or incomplete build assumptions
  • Margin dependent on unverified cost logic
  • Early conviction turning into irreversible exposure
  • Limited ability to correct assumptions once hard money is committed


Where Proposabid fits:

We test whether the CapEx assumptions actually support the deal —before capital becomes non-refundable and decisions become fixed.


What you get:

  • Cost validation against real market conditions
  • Line-item variance exposure across key drivers
  • “What must be true” for projected margins to hold
  • Contingency logic stress test and risk coverage review


Result:

  • You enter commitment with real conviction — not modeled confidence


Why clients engage here:

Because once hard money goes non-refundable —

bad assumptions can’t be corrected, only absorbed.


Typical Engagement Range:

$12K – $25K per asset (diligence / pre-close timeline)



🟡 PRE-GC AWARD


Bid & Scope Comparability Audit


(After bids - before contractor selection)

 

Use when:

  • Bids have been received — but they don’t align cleanly
  • You’re about to select a contractor and want to avoid hidden risk
  • Numbers are close, but scope and assumptions feel inconsistent
  • You need confidence before signing a contract


What’s happening:
Bids have been received — but they are built on different scopes, assumptions, and pricing structures.


What’s at risk:

  • Scope gaps hidden across contractors
  • Misaligned assumptions driving pricing differences
  • Allowances and exclusions masking true cost
  • Change orders effectively baked in before contract award 


Where Proposabid fits:

We normalize bids into a structurally equivalent framework —
so you’re selecting between real options, not distorted ones.


What you get:

  • Apples-to-apples bid alignment across all contractors
  • Scope omission and inconsistency detection
  • Allowance and exclusion risk visibility
  • Change-order probability flags
  • Clear, side-by-side evaluation framework


Result:

  • You award the GC based on truth — not interpretation


Why clients engage here:

Because once the GC is awarded —pricing assumptions become contractual, and risk becomes fixed.


Typical Engagement Range:

  • $10K – $22K per decision
  • (or bundled within broader project / development engagements)





🔵 PRE-LENDER APPROVAL


Capital Stack Defensibility Package


(Before loan approval - lender review and draw structuring)


Use when:

  • You’re preparing for lender review or loan approval
  • The budget needs to withstand scrutiny beyond internal assumptions
  • You want to strengthen your position before submitting to lenders
  • You need a defensible structure before capital is finalized


What’s happening here:

You’re preparing for lender review — but the budget and supporting documentation may not be structured to withstand scrutiny.


What’s at risk:

  • Budget failing lender underwriting or review
  • Weak or unclear contingency logic
  • Delays in approval or reduced leverage
  • Increased scrutiny on draws and capital deployment


Where Proposabid fits:

We structure the CapEx budget and supporting materials into a lender-ready format — so the capital stack is clear, defensible, and aligned with underwriting expectations.


What you get:

  • Standardized cost coding and budget structure
  • Contingency logic memo and risk coverage explanation
  • Bid documentation aligned to lender expectations
  • Draw defensibility framework and support materials


Result:

  • Faster approvals.
  • Stronger lender confidence.
  • Cleaner capital stack.


Why clients engage here:

Because lender approval isn’t just about numbers — it’s about whether the structure behind those numbers holds up.


Typical Engagement Range:

  • $10K – $20K per project
  • (often bundled within development or capital event engagements)

CAPITAL EVENTS & SPECIAL SITUATIONS

Get in Touch



“We step in at the exact moment a decision becomes high-stakes —
and ensure it can still hold up.”


You don’t lose control during normal operations —you lose control when decisions are made under urgency, scrutiny, or change.


👉 We operate at the moments where
capital is exposed, timelines compress, and assumptions get tested in real time.



🔻 HOW DEVELOPERS ENGAGE

Most engagements don’t start proactively —they start when something feels off, accelerated, or at risk.


  • LOI, diligence, refinance - Validate assumptions before capital is committed or repositioned


  • Change orders, misalignment, escalation - Identify where cost and scope are breaking structurally


  • IC, lender, ownership - Structure the decision so it holds up under scrutiny


  • Standardize how decisions are being made across assets



🟤 PRE-ACQUISITION VALIDATION


CapEx Reality Check


(Under LOI — during diligence window)


Use when:

  • You’re under LOI and diligence is underway
  • CapEx assumptions are driving the investment decision
  • You need to validate the deal before closing
  • You want to reduce risk before capital is committed


What’s happening here:

A deal is under contract. The acquisition team must validate CapEx assumptions fast (30- 180 days).


What’s at risk:

  • Underwriting based on incomplete or misaligned scope 
  • CapEx numbers that don’t reflect real execution conditions 
  • Exposure post-close when assumptions break 


Where Proposabid fits:

We structure and stress-test the CapEx plan before closing — so the investment holds up beyond the model.


What you get:

  • Scope integrity review vs underwriting narrative 
  • Bid comparability stress test 
  • “Assumption Fragility” memo (IC-ready) 
  • Variance exposure summary (what could break post-close) 


Result:

  • Acquisition team gains decision clarity before capital commits 
  • IC receives a defensible CapEx narrative 
  • Reduced risk of post-close surprises 


Why clients engage here:

Because this protects a $20M–$200M acquisition — not a construction task.


Typical Engagement Range: 

$12K – $25K per asset (rush timeline)



🔴 MID-PROJECT INTERVENTION


Change-Order Exposure Audit


(Project underway — cost drift emerging)


Use when:

  • The project is underway and costs are starting to drift
  • Change orders are increasing and raising concern
  • Leadership is asking questions you can’t clearly answer
  • You need to understand what’s driving escalation before it worsens


What’s happening here:

The project is active. Change orders are rising. Leadership is starting to question what’s happening.


What’s at risk:

  • Budget drift impacting IRR 
  • Loss of credibility with ownership 
  • No clear explanation of cost escalation 


Where Proposabid fits:

We analyze how scope decisions are mutating — and identify where cost escalation is structurally originating.


What you get:

  • Change-order pattern mapping (signal vs noise) 
  • Scope definition gap identification 
  • Decision traceability reconstruction 
  • Executive briefing (root cause of escalation) 


Result:

  • Leadership understands why costs are moving 
  • PMCs regain control of the narrative 
  • Escalation becomes explainable — not reactive 


Why clients engage here:

This is damage containment, not consulting.


Typical Engagement Range:

$10K – $20K per project



🟢 REFINANCE / EXIT PREP


CapEx Documentation Package


(Stabilization → refinance / valuation event)


Use when:

  • The property is stabilizing and moving toward refinance or sale
  • Lenders or investors are asking for clarity on CapEx execution
  • You need to explain what was planned vs what actually occurred
  • You want to strengthen valuation and financing outcomes


What’s happening here:

The property is transitioning to refinance or exit. Lenders are asking questions the team can’t clearly answer.


What’s at risk:

  • Inability to explain variance vs plan 
  • Reduced confidence from lenders or investors

We reconstruct the CapEx decision and execution narrative into a lender-

ready structure.


What you get

  • Capital deployment narrative (planned vs executed) 
  • Scope execution alignment summary 
  • Variance explanation framework 
  • Audit-ready CapEx summary exhibit 


Result:

  • Clean, defensible story for lenders 
  • Stronger valuation and refinancing position 
  • Reduced friction during diligence 


Why clients engage here:

Because this directly supports loan proceeds and valuation defense.


Typical Engagement Range:

$7.5K – $15K per asset



🟣 PORTFOLIO RESET


Standardization Sprint


(Multi-asset operators — inconsistent processes)

 

Use when:

  • You’re scaling across multiple properties with inconsistent processes
  • Similar projects are producing different outcomes
  • Teams are handling CapEx decisions differently across assets
  • You need a repeatable structure across the portfolio


What’s happening here:

Teams are scaling across properties —
but every CapEx decision is handled differently.


What’s at risk:

  • Inconsistent scopes and bid structures 
  • Operational inefficiency across teams 
  • No governance or repeatability 


Where Proposabid fits:

We run sprints to standardize how CapEx decisions are structured across the portfolio.


What you get:

  • Standardized CapEx intake template 
  • Bid leveling structure 
  • Decision documentation model 
  • Governance workflow (who approves what and why) 


Result:

  • Immediate operational clarity 
  • Repeatable decision structure across assets 
  • Reduced internal friction 


Why clients engage here:

Because it eliminates portfolio-level chaos immediately.


Typical Engagement Range:

$20K – $35K (portfolio engagement)



🟠 INSURANCE / LOSS EVENTS


Scope Validation & Alignment


(Post-loss rebuild — insurance + ownership misaligned)


Use when:

  • A loss event has occurred and stakeholders are misaligned
  • Insurance, contractors, and ownership don’t agree on scope or cost
  • Claims are delayed due to unclear or inconsistent documentation
  • You need a neutral structure to align all parties quickly


What’s happening here:

A loss event has occurred.
Insurance, contractors, and ownership are not aligned on scope or cost.


What’s at risk:

  • Misaligned repair scope 
  • Disputed costs 
  • Delays in claim resolution 


Where Proposabid fits:

We structure the repair scope into a neutral, comparable framework across all parties.


What you get:

  • Scope reconciliation (adjuster vs contractor vs owner) 
  • Cost normalization framework 
  • Decision clarity memo 
  • Documentation for claim negotiation 

Result:

  • Faster alignment across stakeholders 
  • Clear basis for claim decisions 
  • Reduced dispute risk 


Why clients engage here:

Because insurance timelines force urgency.


Typical Engagement Range:

$8K – $18K per engagement



🔵 IC CONFIDENCE PACKAGE


Pre-Approval Decision Structuring


(Before investment committee approval)


Use when:

  • A deal is heading to investment committee approval
  • The recommendation is solid — but not fully structured for IC review
  • You expect questions around assumptions, trade-offs, or risk
  • You need to accelerate approval and reduce internal friction


What’s happening here:

An asset manager must present a recommendation — but the structure behind it is incomplete.


What’s at risk:

  • Weak approval narrative 
  • Hidden assumptions and trade-offs 
  • Delays in capital deployment 


Where Proposabid fits:

We turn the recommendation into a fully structured, approval-ready decision file.


What you get:

  • Bid comparability model 
  • Assumption documentation 
  • Risk visibility summary 
  • Approval-ready exhibits 


Result:

  • Faster IC approvals 
  • Stronger internal confidence 
  • Clear, defensible 
  • decision structure 


Why clients engage here:

Because this directly accelerates capital deployment.


Typical Engagement Range:

$10K – $22K per approval cycle

Testimonials

Phil R., Real Estate Investor

 “What Proposabid gave us wasn’t faster bids — it was confidencein the decision itself.  When the repair was approved, ownership, trade-offs, and risk were clear.
Months later, we can still explain why the decision was made and stand behind it.” 

Gary H. - Roofing Bids

 “Proposabid didn’t optimize the repair — it clarified the decision.
When capital was approved, ownership and risk were explicit, and the rationale still holds up.”
