Note: The Excel workbook has three worksheets: "Bid Items", "Recap Bid Proposal", and "Proposal Summary."

All three spreadsheets must be completed for a conclusive and eligible bid.

• The "Bid Items" spreadsheet contains all proposed bid items for the project. Data may only be entered in the "Unit Price" column cells. Data (price amount) that is entered for the Unit Price will automatically be extended to the "Extended Price" column.
• The information on the “Recap Bid Summary” spreadsheet “Camp Wisdom Road Bid Proposal – RECAP," will be automatically entered from the Extended Price column on the “Bid Items” worksheet. Data cannot be entered on this page.
• To complete “Proposal Summary – Bid Proposal” spreadsheet, data must be entered for the Bid Proposal for the Total Bid (Sections I - IX):

A. Materials Incorporated into Work.
B. Materials Not Incorporated with Work.
C. Other Labor, etc.

The item “NOT TO EXCEED TOTAL AMOUNT OF SECTION I (A+B+C) IN WORDS” should be completed by writing the total bid amount in words.
