Preconstruction

PROCORE FOR GOVERNMENT

Available Procore for Government Tools are engineered consistent with the FedRAMP Moderate baseline (Procore for Government is currently "In Process").

Procore for Government's Preconstruction tools consolidate key project data in a single solution. Managing documents, designs, bids, and budgets in one place enables faster "clash-free" design validation. Teams can also leverage historical performance data to optimize their project backlog.

Key Solutions

Key solutions include:

Bid Management

Key Tool: Bidding, Planroom

Procore for Government's Bid Management solution digitizes and streamlines the entire bidding process, from creating bid packages to awarding contracts.

  • Centralized Bid Creation: Create comprehensive bid packages, attaching relevant drawings, specifications, and models directly from the project's document repository.

  • Streamlined Communication: Manage all bidder communication, including RFIs and addenda, within the platform to ensure all bidders have the same, up-to-date information.

  • Bid Leveling: Compare bids submitted in a standardized format, allowing for true "apples-to-apples" comparisons to identify the best value.

Design Coordination (BIM)

Key Tools: Coordination Issues, Drawings, Models

Procore for Government's Design Coordination solution brings the Virtual Design and Construction/Building Information Modeling (VDC/BIM) process into the platform, allowing teams to find and resolve clashes.

  • Model Aggregation: Upload and combine multiple 3D models from various design disciplines (e.g., architectural, structural, and more) into a single federated, viewable model in the cloud.

  • Automated Clash Detection: Run clash detection tests to identify and group areas where different building systems interfere with one another.

  • Coordination Issues: Create, assign, and track "Coordination Issues" directly from the 3D model, providing a clear and traceable workflow for resolving design conflicts among stakeholders.

Important

Procore for Government does not support direct publishing or uploads from third-party design applications (such as Autodesk Revit®, AutoCAD®, or Navisworks®). End users are solely responsible for ensuring the manual transfer of all design files—including drawings, models, and documents—is performed in accordance with their organization's security and data handling protocols. End users must export the necessary files from third-party design applications and manually upload them into the appropriate tool within the secure Procore for Government environment.
