Tenderfly

Points schedules from tender documents, not from scratch.

Tenderfly reads your mechanical specifications, equipment schedules and control schematics. It extracts every tagged item, matches IO templates, and produces a full points list ready for your estimator to review.

What it does

Upload a tender pack. Get back a complete equipment list with AI, DI, AO, DO and HL allocations per item.

Metering integration is handled automatically. The pipeline reads narrative specifications for sub-meter counts and panel topology, not just individually tagged meters. Gateway equipment, BACnet and Modbus integration points, panel counts and scope filtering are all built in.

Your estimator reviews the output, adjusts items that need their judgement, and exports a priced proposal. The manual work of reading every page, counting every sensor and building the schedule from scratch is done.

What it handles

  • Mechanical specifications: equipment lists, metering strategies, panel topology, BACnet/Modbus requirements
  • Equipment schedules: tagged items with quantities, models, and IO columns
  • Control schematics: sensor and actuator counts, integration architecture
  • Ventilation drawings: AHUs, VAVs, HRVs, extract systems
  • VRF schematics: outdoor units, indoor units, branch controllers, gateway integration
  • Heating schematics: boilers, ASHPs, pressurisation units, pumps

Who it's for

Commercial directors and estimation teams at BMS contractors who tender for projects ranging from schools to large commercial mixed-use developments. If your team produces manual estimates from PDF tender documents, Tenderfly produces the first draft for them.

Results

97.5% accuracy on a 908-point mixed-use commercial development with 82 tender documents. 99% accuracy on HL and gateway point allocation. Consistent, repeatable results across multiple runs of the same project.

Validated against an experienced BMS estimator’s manual estimate on live commercial tenders.
