| 1 | Basis of Estimate and cost summary | Direct cost, indirects, escalation against the spend curve and risk-based contingency roll up to one headline with a stated class and accuracy range. The written basis, assumptions, exclusions, risks and reconciliation sit next to the numbers, so the estimate survives review. |
| 2 | Contingency simulation | Three-point ranges on the lines that carry the risk, a correlation setting, and an S-curve with P10 to P95. Contingency at the level you fund at, in one cell. |
| 3 | Bid/no-bid scorecard | Twenty weighted criteria, knockouts, the bid economics beside the score, and a register that tracks your hit rate. |
| 4 | Tender clarification and deviation log | Every question, every answer, every deviation, and what each one did to the price. |
| 5 | Escalation and currency exposure | Price movement by period and commodity, and what a ten percent move in the exchange rate does to a bid with local content. |
| 6 | Commercial bid evaluation matrix | For owners comparing EPC offers on a like-for-like basis, with the qualifications priced. |
Estimators, project and bid engineers, bid managers, and owners' or developers' teams evaluating contractors. If your work ends in a review meeting, this is for you.

25 years on EPC projects in petrochemicals, fertilisers and now green hydrogen, ammonia and sustainable fuels. Priced them, bid them, won some, lost some, delivered the ones we won. The part nobody teaches is how to make a number stand up in the room. That is what these files do.
