TMR: Line Item ProfileTMR: Line Item Profile

Short: Build a production version of the interactive model prototype

Long: The BAMS/DSS interactive model prototype uses a browser based interface to provide the basic functionality of the Line Item Profile's model. It includes many features that make bid review and analysis much simpler. In addition, basic item price history graphs/tables are available for the items included in the analysis.

DEMO
