bidlint v0.2.0 — Real-World Engineering Bid Compliance
bidlint v0.2.0
Real-world engineering bid compliance. Evidence before confidence.
bidlint v0.2.0 expands the deterministic compliance core into a more practical technical bid evaluation workflow for engineering specifications, vendor datasheets, bids and submittals.
What's new
- Deterministic engineering unit conversion for:
- Power
- Pressure
- Length
- Flow
- Safer parsing of real-world vendor datasheets
- Support for colon-delimited, two-column and paired-line technical fields
- Conservative engineering terminology normalization
- Project- and vendor-specific aliases with
--aliases - Multi-vendor technical compliance ranking
- Self-contained HTML technical bid tabulation
- Requirement-by-vendor comparison matrix
- CSV audit export for spreadsheet and procurement workflows
- Improved traceability and explicit uncertainty handling
Engineering safety
bidlint only makes a deterministic compliance decision when the available evidence supports it.
Unknown units, missing evidence, ambiguous terminology or qualitative requirements remain:
REVIEW
rather than being converted into an artificial PASS or FAIL.
Evidence before confidence.
Example
Specification: Motor power shall be minimum 10 kW.
Vendor : Motor power: 10000 W
PASS — Offered 10000w (= 10kw) satisfies >= 10kw.
