Grounds, landscaping and snow questions

Can we filter bids by distance?

Radar filters by state, watch list, fit, deadline and value. Service area is part of the fit score, with the reasons shown.

Can we run several bids at once?

Yes. Each bid gets its own plan, and Do next shows every step due across all of them.

Who approves the price, signature and submission?

Always a person on your team with the right to do it. BotBid prepares and checks; it never sets a final price, signs or hands a bid in.
