Product · Quote Leveling

Compare concrete quotes by landed cost — not base $/CY.

Three suppliers, three formats, three sets of fees. We normalize them into one apples-to-apples view with risk flags inline.

Lowest base price (Lone Star) would cost the same as the awarded supplier — and risks an extra short-load fee on under-8-CY loads. Leveling shows you the real number before you award.

One line-item schema

Base, delivery, fuel, environmental, short-load, standby, weekend, admixture — every quote in the same shape regardless of how it arrived.

Missing-fee detection

When a supplier omits a fee the others quoted, we flag it. No discovering on invoice day that delivery wasn't in the price.

Validity + exclusions

Validity dates, expiration warnings, and supplier exclusions side by side. Award is blocked if a quote has expired.

Risk callouts

"Cheapest on base, highest on landed." "Short-load fee triggers under 8 CY." "12% above your historical range for this market."

Benchmark check

Each quote is checked against your private history and public benchmarks so you know if it's high, low, or normal for the market.

Award rationale

Capture the why — lowest landed, best availability, preferred supplier, payment terms. Stays with the PO as audit trail.
