How Does The Successful Low Bidder Get Low and Make Money?; sixteen stories and case studies of over 70 ways low bidders got low for offices-warehouses-retail stores-clothing processing facility, churches-schools, expressways, towers, runways, big buildings, tunnels, pipelines, and aerospace facilities, with fifteen keys to successful bidding and construction, including: detail cost estimate summaries; 10 lists of bids; 15 ways to make government estimating more accurate, featuring 6 small jobs. Ten medium size projects and three super or mega projects with bidding secrets, construction methods, and unique and unusual ways the low bidders have gotten low and successfully made money. This video was developed after reviewing over 7,800 bids and projects costing over $181 billion and offers many cost engineering answers to successful construction with unique methods, strategy, and computerization to teach construction estimating, bid strategy, and cost analysis. The video contains simple to complex ideas and methods contractors have used to successfully rise above the competitive bidding system for $100,000 to $300,000,000 projects. This series of stories of concrete, steel, and masonry buildings and towers, including four world famous international projects, are meant to challenge your thinking—call it "conceptual estimating," "brainstorming," or "cost engineering."

The "Low Bidder" video features Hollywood talent, Cindy Maranne, roving reporter, Jim Steel - "Super," the construction workers and managers of these successful projects, and Joe A. Brown, AACE International Fellow, successful Certified Cost Consultant, who had an active part in these successful projects. Also, Nat Hogan, video production manager and video cameramen, music, sound, script writer, graphics, and editing technicians of Communication Concepts, Inc., and world renowned international cost engineer as advisor, who just said, "Joe, this is a very good video. I want to use it in my college courses." Visit our "lobidder" web page: www.lobiddervideo.com for some sample projects and book indexes.

Summary: Some examples of Joe Brown's "Keys to Successful Construction and Bidding," such as Key #15 - Construction Methods - the Galaxy Crane, Key #12 - Computerization on the OLF Runway, and Key #11 - Detail Planning and Scheduling CPM, Key #2 - Imagineering - Designing and Engineering A New Lift Device, Key #14 - Bidding Strategy, rounding his bid down to odd numbers. With the "Low Bidder" video, you can see the Galaxy Crane along with unique concrete forms, the siding rail cars, paving machines, and team work—construction methods for more successful bidding and construction. You can see that the selection of the best low bidder ways and the right combination of the construction and bidding keys can be critical for successful construction at a profit.

Contractors, government agencies, and educators are already using this video successfully. A prime contractor said, soon after purchasing the video, "We are already using this video in bidding."
