Construction procurement and ITB software
Procurement that turns scattered quotes into a clear decision
Send ITBs (invitation to bids), collect subcontractor pricing in whatever shape it arrives, and let AI line it all up so you can compare like-for-like, award with confidence, and feed the winner straight back into your estimate.

Three differently-structured quotes levelled onto one canonical scope set and compared like-for-like against the estimate. Totals and the +/− figure are ex GST, on the scope each sub covers. Acme Concreting is awarded at $589,900 against the $612,000 benchmark — the win flows straight through to a subcontract, commitment and budget in Pay.

Stop re-typing quotes
Subs quote however they normally would, by email, PDF or spreadsheet, and AI parses whatever arrives into a structured quote.
Compare like-for-like
Smart Compare builds one canonical line set across every quote, even when each sub broke their pricing down differently.
Award without errors
An awarded quote maps onto your estimate lines AI-first, so the committed price flows downstream without manual re-keying.
Everything a ITB needs, in one place
From authoring the request to awarding the trade.
Create project-level ITBs
Spin up a invitation to bid against a project, define scope and trades, and distribute to your subcontractors from one place.
Let subs quote their way
Subcontractors respond through a public portal with no login, and send pricing however they like.
AI quote parsing
Unstructured emails, PDFs and spreadsheets become structured quotes automatically.

Overlay your estimate
Drop your estimate onto the comparison as an optional reference column to see how each quote lands.
Map the award onto your estimate
Soft-award your preferred sub and map the winning quote onto your estimate lines AI-first.
Procurement sits in the middle of Win to Pay
It draws on your estimate upstream, as the scope you're pricing and an optional overlay on Smart Compare, and feeds award downstream by mapping the winning quote back onto your estimate lines. From there an award flows into commitment, budget and ultimately payment.
