Vendor price lists

A supplier's list of current prices for materials, products, or equipment that estimators use to price out a bid.

What it usually contains

  • Item descriptions with part or catalog numbers and units of measure
  • Unit prices, sometimes with quantity break or tier pricing
  • Effective dates, expiration or price-hold periods
  • Discount schedules, contractor or account-specific pricing
  • Notes on freight, minimum orders, lead times, and taxes

What the assistant uses it for

Answering what a given material or piece of equipment costs per unit, which quantity breaks or contractor discounts apply, and how long a quoted price is good for. Also used to check whether costs in an estimate reflect current supplier pricing.

How it is versioned

A document of this type has exactly one current version at a time. Upload a revision and it becomes the version that counts — the one before it is kept and dated, but is no longer what your assistant answers from. Nothing is ever deleted, so you can always show what this document said on a given date.

On one AI system

Everything your company knows.
One version that counts.

You already own the documents. We make them the only thing your AI is allowed to answer from, and we keep them current — so nobody quotes last year’s price by accident again.
