Does this sound familiar?
We often don't value engineer unless our client asks us to. Our pricing data is fragmented and it's just too time-consuming.
We value engineer in spreadsheets. There is a risk of error, as we copy and amend formulae multiple times.
Everybody works in different spreadsheets and systems. It's hard to see how we got to the final price and why decisions were made.
