AwardBeam
SEALED BIDDING

Publish the solicitation, hold every price under seal until opening, and post an award summary residents can read.

Demo uses fictional City of Westbridge data. Not a live city deployment.

The clerk's problem

The spreadsheet was doing three jobs.

A small city still has to invite bids, keep them sealed, and show the public who won. AwardBeam is that path in one file.

  1. 01A sealed period that stays sealed until opening.
  2. 02A public trail after award that a resident can read.
  3. 03A handoff the next officer can follow without the email thread.
  4. 04A record that does not invent a metric to look busy.

Who reads the file

Three readers. One award file.

  1. 01OfficerPublish the solicitation, open the seal on time, and keep the evaluation in one file.
  2. 02VendorSubmit under seal, then read the award without calling the clerk for the outcome.
  3. 03ResidentSee who won, what the city released, and the rationale the jurisdiction chose to post.
