Position Overview

The HVAC Estimator serves as a vital member of the Bid Team, responsible for managing the full bid lifecycle from receipt of a Bid Request through final submission of pricing, submittals, and specification sheets.

Operating within the Salesforce Bid Open Queue, the Estimator receives bid requests originating from contractors — either directly or through a Sales Representative — and responds with accurate, competitive, and timely bid packages. Accuracy is paramount. Time is of the essence. Every bid directly impacts revenue and contractor relationships.

Key Responsibilities

• Salesforce Bid Open Queue & Case Management
• Monitor and manage the Salesforce Bid Open Queue to receive and triage incoming Bid Requests assigned to the Bid Team / HVAC Estimators.
• Confirm that a Salesforce Case has been created and accurately reflects the scope, equipment, and project details of each Bid Request.
• Log and update all bid activity, communications, and status changes within the Salesforce Case record throughout the bid lifecycle.
• Ensure all bid-related documents — including blueprints, plan sets, specification sheets, and correspondence — are saved within the appropriate Salesforce Case.
• Document all vendor quotes, EPR reference numbers, and pricing notes within the Bid notes and Salesforce Case record.
• In the event of missing or unclear information, initiate prompt contact with the Sales Representative or contractor via the Salesforce Case post or email.
• Update Case status and disposition upon bid submission, award, or closure to maintain accurate pipeline visibility.
• Bid Request Review & Scope Interpretation
• Bid Requests may be received in the following formats:
• Blueprints / Mechanical Plan Sets provided by the contractor for full project scope review.
• Written equipment descriptions including quantities, model numbers, and equipment tags or labels.
• Verbal or written scope descriptions relayed through the Sales Representative.
  
  

Plan Set & Blueprint Review

• Interpret and extract key equipment data from mechanical plan sets and blueprints, including unit schedules, equipment tags, specifications, and quantities.
• Identify all HVAC equipment required for the project, including make, model, capacity, voltage, and application.
• Review drawings for compliance with project design intent and flag any discrepancies or missing specifications.
• Confirm that the scope of work aligns with the information provided in the Salesforce Bid Request prior to proceeding with the bid.
  
  

Equipment Description & Tag Review

• Cross-reference contractor-supplied model numbers, equipment tags, and descriptions against the company's available product offerings.
• Identify exact matches, approved substitutes, or equivalent alternatives where original specifications cannot be met.
• Verify quantities, configurations, and any special application requirements indicated on equipment schedules or in written descriptions.
• Equipment Selection & Application Analysis
• Perform detailed equipment selection by matching contractor specifications to available product lines, ensuring technical compliance with project requirements.
• Evaluate equipment applications including rooftop units, split systems, air handlers, condensing units and related HVAC components.
• Identify and propose value-engineered alternatives or substitutions when specified equipment is unavailable, discontinued, or outside competitive pricing range.
• Confirm that selected equipment meets applicable performance criteria, efficiency ratings, electrical requirements, and physical dimensions outlined in the project documents.
• Coordinate with vendors or manufacturer representatives as needed to confirm equipment availability, lead times, or technical suitability.
• Inventory Review
• Conduct a pre-bid inventory review to determine whether existing on-hand stock can be utilized to fulfill the project requirements and improve lead time competitiveness.
• Reference available inventory listings (e.g., Inventory on the Ground) to confirm unit availability before quoting from standard order lead times.
• Flag any inventory constraints, limited-availability items, or long-lead equipment that may impact the contractor's project schedule.
• Communicate inventory status and lead time information to the Sales Representative and/or contractor as part of the bid response.
• Pricing Analysis & Application
• Apply accurate, current, and competitive pricing to all equipment included in the bid, in accordance with company pricing guidelines and margin requirements.
• Analyze pricing relative to project size, competitive landscape, contractor relationship, and strategic importance to the company.
• Review and apply any applicable special pricing programs, promotional pricing, or tier discounts as authorized.
• Ensure that all pricing reflected in the bid is consistent with the pricing documented in the Salesforce Case and any associated vendor quotes.
• Identify and escalate pricing exceptions or anomalies to the Bid Team Manager prior to bid submission.
• Enhanced Pricing Requests (EPR)
• Submit Enhanced Pricing Requests (EPRs) to manufacturers or authorized pricing contacts to secure and hold project-specific pricing for qualified bid opportunities.
• Ensure all EPR submissions include complete and accurate project information — including contractor name, project name, equipment list, quantities, and estimated order date.
• Track EPR approval status, expiration dates, and reference numbers; document all EPR details within the Salesforce Case and on the Bid.
• Monitor EPR validity throughout the bid cycle and submit renewal or extension requests as needed prior to expiration.
• Communicate EPR status and reference numbers to the Sales Representative and Post-Sale team to ensure continuity upon bid award.
• Bid Preparation & Submission
• Compile a complete and professionally formatted bid package for presentation to the contractor and/or Sales Representative.
• Ensure the bid package includes all required elements: itemized equipment list, quantities, model numbers, pricing, lead times, and any applicable terms or conditions.
• Verify that the bid is fully accurate, legible, and complete — with no missing pages, cut-off content, or unresolved discrepancies — prior to submission.
• Confirm that bid pricing, equipment models, and specifications are current and have not expired prior to issuance.
• Submit the bid to the Sales Representative and/or directly to the contractor within the required timeframe, recognizing that bid deadlines are firm and time-sensitive.
• Retain all versions of the bid within the Salesforce Case, clearly labeled to reflect revision history.
• Submittal & Specification Sheet Preparation
• Prepare and compile submittal packages for all equipment included in the bid, sourced from manufacturer product documentation and specification libraries.
• Ensure specification sheets accurately reflect the quoted equipment — including model numbers, performance data, electrical characteristics, dimensions, and accessories.
• Verify that submittals align with the bid in all respects prior to submission to the contractor or engineer.
• Organize submittals in a clear, professional format suitable for Engineer of Record review and project record keeping.
• Save and archive all submittal packages within the Salesforce Case and Opportunity for future reference and post-sale coordination.
• Coordinate with the Post-Sale Process Coordinator to ensure submittals are available and ready for engineer approval upon bid award.
• Contractor & Sales Representative Communication
• Maintain clear, professional, and timely communication with Sales Representatives regarding bid status, equipment selections, pricing, and required clarifications.
• Communicate directly with contractors as needed to clarify project scope, confirm equipment requirements, or resolve specification discrepancies.
• Coordinate with vendors and manufacturer representatives to obtain product information, pricing, availability, and technical support.
• Provide prompt responses to all bid-related inquiries, recognizing that contractors and Sales Representatives are dependent on timely turnaround.
• Document all significant communications within the Salesforce Case to maintain a complete and auditable record of bid activity.
• Product Knowledge & Portfolio Maintenance
• Maintain current and comprehensive knowledge of the company's HVAC equipment portfolio, including product lines, model families, accessories, and configurations.
• Stay informed of new product introductions, model updates, discontinuations, and manufacturer changes that may affect equipment availability or bid accuracy.
• Develop familiarity with competitive product lines to support effective cross-referencing and substitution recommendations.
• Participate in product training sessions, manufacturer webinars, and team knowledge-sharing activities to continuously develop technical expertise.
