Send Kairos Foundation Group a complete bid package and we’ll return a complete, accurate proposal by your due date.

Here’s what to include and what to expect.

What to include

What should a bid package to Kairos Foundation Group include?

Required

  • Plans — current drawing set (architectural, structural, and civil/grading at minimum)
  • Specifications — project specs relevant to foundation, structural concrete, and sitework scopes
  • Geotechnical report — if none exists yet, tell us; it changes how we can scope the work
  • Bid due date — the exact date and time, and delivery method

Include if available

  • Addenda — every addendum issued to date, numbered and dated
  • Grading and drainage plans, especially for hillside or difficult-access sites
  • Survey / boundary information
  • Project schedule or milestone dates
  • Bonding, insurance, or prequalification requirements specific to this bid
  • Point of contact for questions during the bid period

FAQ

Bid invitation questions, answered directly.

What happens after Kairos Foundation Group receives my bid package?

Kairos confirms receipt promptly, runs a gap check against the required items, and flags anything missing before pricing begins.

Does Kairos Foundation Group bid without a geotechnical report?

Yes, if none exists yet — tell us up front. It changes how the work gets scoped and what assumptions need to be flagged before pricing.

Who at Kairos Foundation Group actually estimates the bid?

The crew that bids the job runs the job — estimating works directly with the field team, not a separate desk disconnected from execution.
