To facilitate access to online plans and specifications, Subcontractors use a software application called BidView. BidView allows subs the ability to view and download drawings (formatted as TIFF image files), facilitates printing of these image files, and includes functionality to perform online take-offs. Currently these services are provided free of charge.

BidView also gives Subcontractors the ability to order paper copies of construction drawings, at competitive rates. To order hard paper copies, launch BidView and begin tagging the drawings you would like to order, then click on the "Hard Copy" toolbar icon and complete and submit the request form. A reprographer will then contact you to confirm printing, pricing, payment and shipping options. Click here to begin accessing plans and specs online.
