Why Set Up Project Attributes

Attributing your projects in BidMatrix will allow you begin creating a bid history database. You can quickly filter and search your database of projects using any combination of your project attributes. Setting up and assigning project attributes to your projects in BidMatrix will allow you to perform data analytics across your entire database of projects. BidMatrix exposes the cost history contained in your list of projects to data analytic tools like Microsoft PowerBI and Tableau.
