Here are the notable changes to the project's Tender Board and Portfolio Planning tools in 2023.
ERP Cost Codes can now be added to the Cost Catalogue for ERP-integrated companies. When using the Cost Catalogue, you ERP codes can be applied across all projects using the Estimating, Tender Board and Portfolio Planning tools. These cost codes are also added to your budget when you send an estimate to the budget, providing consistency across your workflow. See Add Items to a Cost Catalogue.
When looking at a tender proposal on the tender tab, you can preview the cover page or appendix page by clicking the open in new tab icon. See Generate a Tender Proposal.
Users with the Enhanced Estimating Layout can now edit the description for cost items in line on the Estimating tab. Previously, you needed to click the ellipsis and edit the item. See Edit an Estimate.
If you made changes to quantities in your estimate but want to reset them to the original takeoff quantities, you can now take bulk actions to reset multiple line items at once. See Edit an Estimate.
You can move takeoff layers to a new group. See Manage Takeoffs.
Cost codes and cost types can now be configured for the Tender Board and Portfolio Planning tools with the same settings that are available when sending an estimate to the budget in the project's Estimating tool. These settings are applied by default to all projects to provide more consistency. You can still override budget codes as needed in the project's Estimating tab. See Configure Tender Board Settings.
When using filters on the Tender Board and Portfolio Planning tools, you can now type into the filter field to easily find the option you want to filter by. See Search for and Filter Projects on the Tender Board.
You can now permanently delete projects on the Tender Board and Portfolio Planning tools at any time. Previously, deleted projects would be archived for 30 days before they were deleted permanently. See Delete a Project in the Tender Board.
Procore has updated the bulk functions to expand or collapse takeoff groups and to show and hide takeoff layers. Additionally, you can now bulk delete takeoff layers. See Manage Takeoffs.
ERP cost codes are now available for use in the Tender Board and Porftolio Planning tools when adding estimates. This new feature applies to all ERP connectors. See Add an Estimate.
The Tender Board and Porftolio Planning tools have been revised to make the language more accessible for the owner audience. When applied to your company's Procore account, the owner point-of-view dictionary changes the labels and names of particular tools and objects in the user interface. For example, owners will now see Portfolio Planning as the tool name instead of Tender Board. See What tool names and terms are different in Procore for main contractors, owners and speciality contractors?
You can now set multiple projects as templates and apply them to other projects within the Tender Board and Portfolio Planning tools. See Apply a Template in the Tender Board Tool and Set a Tender Board Project as a Template.
A ‘Requested Tender Item’ column has been added for estimates in the Tender Board and Portfolio Planning tools. See Add an Estimate. After a project has been added to the Portfolio tool in Procore, you can switch the column name from ‘Requested Tender Item’ to ‘Cost Code’ to select your own cost codes.
