Description

Scale a procurement quote to a supplied target quantity.

Administrative records connect requests, forms, permits, delegated roles, assets and payment bases. A retained amount or supplied authority limit describes one accounting convention, while matching and conflicting statuses can coexist in duplicate records. Such local checks do not establish authorization, legal validity, actual service delivery or compliance.

Scale a procurement quote to a supplied target quantity.

When to use this tool

Use Procurement Bid Price Unit Crosswalk when you already have quotedPrice, quotedQuantity, suppliedTargetQuantity and need to scale a procurement quote to a supplied target quantity.

How to use the tool and how it works

  1. Enter quotedPrice, quotedQuantity, suppliedTargetQuantity. Use the units and conventions below.
  2. Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
  3. Read priceForTargetQuantity. Use the output convention below.

Require quotedPrice/targetQuantity>=0 and quotedQuantity>0; return price/quotedQuantity*targetQuantity.1

Limitations and assumptions

  • Assumes compatible units and linear pricing; taxes, discounts, package constraints and procurement compliance are not modeled.
  • Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
  • Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Reconcile the original case, permit, asset and payment records with the applicable authority and fee rules. For duplicate statuses, inspect the full history and timestamps before choosing a current record; this helper reports matches without resolving them.
