See How We Manage Contractor Bid Pipelines
A human-run bid desk managing sourcing, qualification, estimating support, proposals and submissions. Client identities withheld.
Win rate is measured against decided bids (won + lost). Losses where the prime contract itself was never awarded are excluded, because that outcome is outside any bidder's control.

How the engine works
Every completed job feeds pricing variance back into the client's model
Opportunity uploaded or sourced; every document parsed, including drawings and addenda
Opportunity type and industry identified; trade scope pulled directly from the plans
Registrations, insurance, bonding, licensing, forms and submittals extracted into a checklist
Scored on win probability, competition, risk, complexity, profit and strategic value
Bottom-up labor, material, equipment and overhead build with regional rate adjustment
Branded proposal generated, reviewed by the bid desk, sent for client approval
Package delivered to every relevant GC or agency, each tracked separately
Fixed 7 / 14 / 24 / 31-day cadence through to award or debrief
Awarded contract price is diffed against our estimate; the variance trains future pricing
What our program data currently shows
“We do not replace your estimator. We give one estimator the output of a full procurement department.”
