AI PURSUIT INTELLIGENCE FOR HEAVY CIVIL

Pursuing a letting is resource allocation with incomplete information.

BidSteer helps you uncover the truth before committing estimating time, crews, and capital.

  • Which upcoming jobs genuinely fit us?
  • Who is likely to bid—and how aggressively?
  • What unit prices are defensible?
  • Do we have the crews and capacity to execute?
  • If not, can qualified subcontractors close the gap—or should we pass?
  • What risks are buried in the bid documents?

How? An always-on AI pursuit analyst examines the entire bid packet alongside your historical estimates, production data, active backlog, and competitive environment.

Make confident go/no-go decisions in a fraction of the time and cost.

WORKS ACROSS THE TOOLS THAT RUN YOUR BUSINESS

HCSS HeavyBid▦ Microsoft ExcelPROCOREVIEWPOINT◆ Microsoft Teams✣ slack
THE WORK IS CONNECTED. YOUR SYSTEMS AREN’T.

Your best decisions shouldn’t depend on who has the latest spreadsheet.

Critical context lives across estimates, schedules, inboxes, job-cost systems, and the people who know the work. BidSteer brings it together—when and where your team needs it.

01

Good opportunities get missed

Lettings move fast. Your team loses hours gathering the context needed for a confident go/no-go.

02

Risk hides between systems

The estimate says go. The backlog, labor plan, or field reality tells a different story.

03

Know-how walks out the door

Lessons live in people’s heads, old folders, and one-off conversations—not where the next estimator can use them.

ONE COPILOT. EVERY PHASE OF THE WORK.

Ask in plain English.
Act with confidence.

BidSteer meets your team in chat, connects to the source systems, shows its work, and waits for approval before taking action.

01

Connect what you already use

HeavyBid, spreadsheets, schedules, job cost, document storage, email, and more—without ripping out your stack.

HBV+8
02

Ask like you’d ask a teammate

“Which lettings fit our crews?” “Where is margin at risk?” “What changed since last week?”

Which jobs should we pursue this month?
03

Review. Approve. Move.

Every recommendation links back to its sources. You decide what gets shared, changed, or sent.
