Negotiated Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) – A GMP is accomplished through marketplace fair and equal opportunity competitive bidding. Budget pricing is solicited, and an internal estimate is prepared. Using an “open book” method, a prequalified bid list, per trade, is developed. Once all of the scopes and prices are posted and reviewed, the most complete and competitive subcontractor will be selected per trade. For the packages that we wish to self-perform, we will also submit a bid at bid time.
