| description | A hardware computer-implemented method is provided for pricing a current contract for bid that includes generating a tree of the current contract, and generating trees of historical contracts. The contracts each specify respective services. The method includes grouping the trees of historical contracts to form a plurality of groups of trees, based on respective tree distances between the trees in each group. The method includes identifying a group of trees, from the plurality of groups, that is closest to the tree of the current contract by calculating respective distances there between. The method includes calculating a price for the current contract based on gross profits and costs for each service in the identified group. The grouping, identifying, and calculating steps each use different methods, responsive to a service (a) having a baseline; and (b) lacking the baseline, wherein the baseline is a value that indicates a scale of the service. |
