A dedicated coordinator who runs your pipeline end to end - finds the bid, tracks the addenda, gets the takeoff done, chases the vendor quotes and gets your proposal out the door. Flat monthly fee.
A capable drywall estimator costs $85,000 to $120,000 a year plus software, benefits and the months it takes to find one. Most subs under $10M in revenue can't justify it - so the owner estimates at night, bids fewer jobs, and growth stalls at whatever one exhausted person can price. The Virtual Bid Manager program replaces that ceiling with a flat $1,500 a month.
Your coordinator watches your bid invitations and flags the ones matching your size and sector. You say go, and the takeoff enters our queue with your standing preferences already loaded - your waste factors, your labor structure, your standard exclusions. Vendor quotes get requested against the material list. The proposal draft lands in your inbox before the bid date, needing only your number and your signature. You spend your time deciding what to bid and what margin to carry - the only two decisions that were ever really yours.
Drywall and interior systems subs bidding 4+ projects a month without a full-time estimator. Growing firms whose estimator is drowning. Regional companies entering a new market who need bid capacity before headcount. Takeoff volume beyond the included scope is billed at standard project rates with subscriber priority.
Month to month. Most clients stay because a won bid pays for years of the program, but nothing locks you in.
The program includes coordination on your full pipeline; takeoff volume is scoped at signup based on your typical bid month, with overflow billed at standard project rates and subscriber priority in the queue.
Yes - your letterhead, your standard terms, your exclusion list. Proposals go out reading like your company wrote them, because operationally it did.
