See Exactly What You'll Get Before You Ever Pick Up the Phone.
Most contractors have never hired a preconstruction consultant before — so they don't know what they're actually paying for until the work shows up. SGC does it differently. Below is a real, unedited example of the kind of deliverable you receive on a Go/No-Go Bid Review. No vague summaries. No consultant-speak. Just clear findings, specific risks, and a straight recommendation you can actually act on.
Sample 1 — Go / No-Go Bid Review
The Project: A federal procurement opportunity at Mountain Home Air Force Base, Idaho — the construction of a new 12.5 kV switching station to replace aging electrical infrastructure. A $10M–$25M firm-fixed-price project procured through two-step sealed bidding.
Why This Sample: This review is built entirely from publicly available federal solicitation data, which makes it a perfect example to share. It shows exactly how SGC evaluates a real opportunity — the scope breakdown, the risk register, the fit assessment, and the final recommendation — without revealing any client's confidential information.
What This Deliverable Includes:
Executive summary with a clear bottom-line recommendation
Full breakdown of the project scope and core work categories
Proposal-critical requirements that determine technical acceptability
A complete risk register with severity ratings and specific mitigation strategies
Reward profile and strategic value assessment
Honest fit assessment — strong fit, conditional fit, and where teaming is required
A clear Go / No-Go recommendation with the exact conditions to meet before committing
Ten specific RFIs to submit before pricing
The Bottom Line: This is what 25 years of commercial construction experience looks like when applied to a single bid decision. By the time you finish reading a review like this, you know whether to chase the project, walk away, or pursue it with specific conditions — before your estimating team spends a single hour.

Sample 2 — Buyout Coverage Review
The Project: The same Mountain Home Air Force Base switching station — but this time we assume the contractor has won the award and is heading into buyout. This review examines representative subcontractor bids across all seven major trade packages on an $18.4M project.
Why This Sample: This is a hypothetical scenario built on the real public project to show exactly how a Buyout Coverage Review works. It demonstrates how SGC finds the scope gaps, overlaps, and trade-boundary issues hiding in subcontractor bids — before the subcontracts go out. The subcontractor names and dollar figures are illustrative examples created to show the methodology.
What This Deliverable Includes:
Executive summary with total margin impact at a glance
Full review of all subcontractor packages across every trade
Scope gap identification — uncovered work that becomes change orders if missed
Overlap identification — duplicated scope you'd otherwise pay for twice
Trade-boundary analysis to prevent disputes during construction
Specific resolution recommendations for every gap and overlap
Consolidated findings table showing total margin protected and recovered
The Bottom Line: On this $18.4M project, the review identified an estimated $407,000 to $588,000 in margin protected and recovered — by closing six scope gaps and eliminating three overlaps before the subcontracts were ever signed. That's the difference between a buyout that protects your margin and one that quietly bleeds it. This is where profit fade starts, and this is where SGC stops it.
