Subcontractor Bidding Workflow

Feature Requests

I self perform, meaning my employees perform 5% or less than all of our work. 95% of it is subcontracted. I need to be in the details of estimating for about 5% of things and then coordinate the big picture. I rely a lot on I've got a farm out bid packages, and then I'll receive, for example, electrical estimates from 4 different guys and be able to plug that into my bid. At present in builder trend, I can send out a scope to multiple subs at once and they can get me their price back. So I can log back in two weeks later and go, oh, look. I've got bids here from all. I can, manipulate them in some ways and then say, I'm selecting x sub. Boom, and it just imports their price to my estimate.

    I would agree, we need this.

    Ideally the subs could fill in the pricing the way the AI uses it.

    So that each quote given helps teach the AI what actual subs are pricing.

    The goal would be to have the AI costs learn from real world sub bids.

    In an ideal world the AI would be connected to actual subs so that if the AI prices my roof at $10,000, I can click a button and the AI will provide me with a list of local subcontractors that will be able to perform the work at the price it specified.
