New York high rise work drives demanding curtain wall and glazing bids with heavy engineering and performance, and a facade subcontractor that does not read the system underprices the wall.
What New York high rise facade sets
Curtain wall packages on New York high rise work, surfaced through agency portals and general contractors, carry unitized systems, high performance and structural requirements under AAMA, and demanding mockups and testing. The package sets the system, the performance, the engineering, and the testing the facade sub must provide, with city specific requirements.
Why facade scope is easy to misprice
The system type, the performance grade, the engineering, and the testing sit in the Division 08 specifications and the drawings, not the title, and high rise work raises every one. A sub that misreads the engineering or testing carries the wrong cost into the bid.
How an AI bid agent reads New York facade work
An AI bid agent monitors the New York portals and GC channels, reads each curtain wall package, and surfaces the system, the performance, the engineering, and the testing. The facade sub prices the actual wall.
