Most Contractors Are Bidding Blind
They submit estimate after estimate.
They rarely get clear bid results.
They do not know why they won, why they lost, or which GCs are worth chasing.
So they keep bidding the same way, hoping the next one hits.
Bid Results changes that.
Better bid results
Capture every outcome — won, lost, and pending — instead of guessing.
Better win ratio
See what's actually working and adjust before the next submission.
More awarded projects
Stay in front of GCs with timely, organized follow-up.
Fewer lost bids
Spot pricing and overhead patterns that lose you work.
Less wasted estimating time
Stop chasing GCs and project types that rarely award you.
Turn Every Submitted Estimate Into Useful Bid Data
Track the Submitted Estimate
Add the project, GC, bid amount, bid date, submitted date, estimator, trade, project type, square footage, overhead amount, and notes.
Follow Up With the GC
Set reminders, log calls, write follow-up notes, track communication, and keep each open bid from going cold.
Collect the Bid Result
Record whether the bid was won, lost, or pending. Add successful bidder, low bid, awarded bid, competitor amounts, feedback, and notes.
Find the Pattern
See which GCs, project types, bid amounts, overhead levels, cost per square foot, and follow-up habits lead to better win rates.
Everything You Need After the Estimate Is Sent
Your Win Ratio Should Not Be a Guess
Many contractors win around 1 out of every 15 to 20 bids — roughly a 5% to 7% win rate. With better bid tracking, GC follow-up, bid result collection, and pattern analysis, contractors get the information they need to improve the odds on future bids.
Results vary by market, trade, pricing, relationships, follow-up, and project fit.

Common Questions
What is Bid Results?+
Bid Results is a SaaS platform for commercial contractors that tracks submitted estimates, follow-ups with GCs, and the actual outcome of every bid — then turns those results into patterns you can use to win more work.
Is this estimating software?+
No. Bid Results focuses on what happens after the estimate is submitted: follow-up, bid result collection, and win-loss analysis.
Who is this for?+
Commercial electrical, plumbing, HVAC and other commercial subcontractors. Estimators, business owners, preconstruction, and sales/BD teams.
What counts as a bid result?+
Whether the bid was won, lost, or still pending — plus the successful bidder, low bid, awarded bid, competitor amounts, and any feedback you collect from the GC.
Why are bid results important?+
Without results you can't see patterns. With results you learn which GCs award you, which project types you win, and where your overhead and bid numbers need adjustment.
Does the free plan include the main software?+
Yes. Free includes the core bid tracking, GC records, follow-up reminders, bid result recording, and a basic dashboard — limited to 5 active bids.
Does Bid Results send emails automatically?+
Not without your approval. Even with Gmail connected, AI drafts emails for you to review and approve before sending.
Stop Bidding Blind
Track every submitted estimate, follow up with every GC, collect every result, and use the patterns to improve your win ratio.
