Step 1: Begin by clicking on the project name in the Project Finder page to open the Project Page, or click the name of the project from your Bid Board.


Step 2: On the Project Page, you'll find the project details, a checklist, and the Submit Bid button.

Step 3: Click on the next tab to view Project Files. This tab contains all documents related to the project.

Use the keyword search feature to find the page numbers within specific documents where your keyword is found.

Step 4: Preview a document by clicking the magnifying glass or the document name. Preview the documents, as this allows you to select specific plan pages required for measuring in Takeoff, (you typically would not export a page of paragraph text and use it for measurements), instead of exporting the entire document.

Step 5: Navigate to the General Contractors tab. This tab displays the general contractors associated with the project and their contact information based on your Subscription plan access.
