Stop losing bids to disconnected takeoff and proposal steps
Between the invitation to bid, the takeoff, the estimate, and the proposal, a construction bid passes through several tools and several people — and something usually gets re-typed or dropped along the way. We connect that path so a bid goes out complete, on time, and gets followed up until the award decision is made.

Where the work leaks out
- Invitations to bid reviewed too late to build a competitive estimate
- Takeoff quantities re-typed by hand into the estimate
- Bid packages missing an exclusion, alternate, or addendum acknowledgment
- Awarded projects that do not get formally scheduled right away
- Follow-up on pending bids stopping after one call
- No visibility into which bids are open, won, or lost across the team
Not every inquiry is the same
Different work needs a different path
Routing rules are yours. We write them during design so each inquiry goes where it should.
Commercial or public bid work
Formal invitation-to-bid process with drawings and a deadline.
Design-build or negotiated work
Less formal bidding, more direct client relationship.
Change order or scope addition
Priced and documented separately from the original contract.
Subcontractor or specialty scope
Bidding as a sub on a larger project, with its own submission rules.
The connected process
From first inquiry to handoff
Each step feeds the next, so nothing gets re-typed and nothing waits on someone remembering.
Every step is configured to your process. We do not impose a workflow on your business.
Intake
What gets captured before anyone follows up
The questions are yours. We write them during design so the record is complete before your team spends time on it.
Photos, plans and documents attach to the same record, so nothing lives in a text thread or an inbox.
What stays human
We are not replacing judgement. Nothing here estimates a job, evaluates a site, prices work or decides what to bid.
- Pricing and scope decisions stay with your team
- Proposals wait for a person to approve them
- Anything urgent or unusual escalates immediately
- You approve every message before it goes live
Why it matters here
A dropped addendum can disqualify a bid entirely
In formal bid work, missing an addendum acknowledgment or a required exclusion is not a minor mistake — it can get a bid thrown out regardless of price. Keeping the invitation, takeoff, and every addendum on one record is what keeps a bid compliant and competitive.
Built on what you already run
We connect the systems your team already works in rather than adding another place to check. If something you own genuinely cannot do the job, we will say so.
Examples, not requirements. Running something else? Ask us.
Construction: common questions
No, we connect to what you already use — Procore, STACK, Bluebeam, or otherwise — and reduce the re-typing between steps.
Yes, each bid is its own record with its own deadline and status, visible across the team.
Addenda acknowledgment and revision history can be tracked on the bid record.
Follow-up reminders continue on a schedule until the award decision is known.
Most construction company builds are live in 2 to 4 weeks.
