Description
Bid Control is a service designed to assist contractors in discovering and preparing public bids from various agencies, including cities, counties, and school districts. It tracks over 3,800 public entities along with more than 540 bid websites, handling upwards of 190,000 bid pages each month. The platform highlights opportunities categorized by trade and service area, offering essential details such as contract values, submission deadlines, necessary forms, site visit information, and other relevant bid specifics. Additionally, users can set up bid alerts, access preliminary insights from agency meetings and budget discussions, examine historical award data, and monitor any alterations to bid dates or documentation. The Bid Builder feature streamlines the bid preparation process by auto-filling forms with the contractor's company details, while the Bid Team offers support with planning and managing paperwork. Contractors are able to explore available opportunities and coordinate their bid workflows conveniently through a browser on their smartphones, tablets, or computers. New users can initiate three job applications at no cost and without needing to provide credit card information, allowing them to test the service's effectiveness. This comprehensive approach ensures that contractors are well-equipped to navigate the bidding process efficiently.
Description
Builterra unifies your entire contract administration team on a single, efficient platform that enhances productivity, transparency, and profitability. Jeff and Chris, seasoned professionals in civil engineering, crossed paths in 2009 and engaged in numerous discussions about technology, eventually pinpointing a common issue in their industry: a contract administration process that was outdated. Realizing that existing solutions merely skimmed the surface of the problem, they identified a chance to completely overhaul the process from its foundation. Their innovative Builterra platform, inspired by Building Information Modeling (BIM), effectively bridges the gap in data transfer from initial design concepts to as-constructed information ready for Geographic Information Systems (GIS) via a cohesive web portal and mobile application. This modern digital pathway not only standardizes but also optimizes and links the entire contract administration workflow, encompassing elements such as cost estimating, bid preparation, field inspections, and progress payment documentation. Users can perform quantity take-offs and obtain up-to-date cost estimates directly within CAD or the Bid Preparation portal, leveraging historical pricing for accuracy. Ultimately, Builterra is paving the way for a more effective approach to contract administration in the civil engineering sector.
