Click here to access the AICP bidding guidelines

If you join a project at a very early stage and you’ll be in charge of bidding , please follow these steps:

  1. CREATE A JOB ON CIMS

Use CIMS Software to create a JOB NUMBER. Speak to your DoP for CIMS details and instructions.

2. CREATE A JOB FOLDER ON DROPBOX

Once the job is created on CIMS and a job number has been allocated, create a JOB FOLDER on DROPBOX - 01. JOBS_BIDDING folder by copy & pasting the 00. JOB FOLDER TEMPLATE.

The folder must be labelled correctly with JOB NUMBER_CLIENT_JOB NAME. Example: CB2000_LGA_CHASE BANK

Once the shoot is confirmed, move the job folder into ‘02. JOBS_ACTIVE’ keeping the same name.  After the job is reconciled and all sales invoices are sent, the job folder should be moved to ‘03. JOBS_COMPLETED’

If the job doesn’t get confirmed, then move it in the04. JOBS_ GONE AWAY job files folder, keeping the same name as above
