Pricing

No public rate card.

Pricing is set in a pilot conversation and covers the full term, including renewals, so a purchase never has to be split to stay under a threshold.

  1. A written quote spans the initial term and each renewal option as one purchase.
  2. Implementation sits under the start of the term and is listed on its own line.
  3. The quote confirms: every year of the initial term, every renewal option priced now, and implementation on its own line.

How a quote is laid out. Your terms are set in the pilot conversation.

Pilot scope

Four answers shape a pilot.

We ask about these in the first conversation, and the written quote follows from the answers.
    1. A list of the demonstration city's solicitations with their status: Fire Station HVAC Modernization, Awarded; Downtown Street Resurfacing Program, Open; Transit Shelter Installation, Questions Closed; Riverfront Trail Expansion, Upcoming.

    How many solicitations you run in a year.

    It tells us how much of the buying cycle the pilot should carry, from department requests to published awards.

    1. Four kinds of access around AwardBeam: officers in the staff console, evaluators in their workspace, vendors who register free, and the public with no sign-in.

    Who needs access: officers, evaluators, vendors, and the public.

    Staff confirm sensitive actions with an authenticator code, evaluators work in their own workspace, contractors register free, and residents read without an account.

    1. Two ways to run a pilot: hosted production with your agency's records, or a guided pilot on the demonstration City of Westbridge.

    Hosted production, or a guided pilot on the demo stack.

    Run the pilot on your own records, or walk through it with us on the demonstration City of Westbridge.

    1. The parts of a public award page: Awarded to, Bid tabulation, Evaluation summary, What the panel said, Resulting contract, Records packet.

    What the public award summary should include.

    We agree what residents see when you publish an award. The public award page can carry the tabulation, the evaluation summary, what the panel said and the resulting contract.
