Abstract

This paper describes the architecture and uses of a CBR-based support system called QuickBids as a support system of quick bids for construction projects. The QuickBids is designed to host the process of forming bid in a construct firm in which the users from bidding-related branches interact to form a final bid by employing a CBR-based historical database via a Web-based user interface. The QuickBids environment is meant to be flexible so as to allow cooperative mechanisms by setting different decision-making routines.
