BidToolkit Workspace has two halves. First watches public bid sources across the Gulf Coast and hands you a short list every morning. Second tracks the estimates, milestones, change orders, and pay apps on the jobs you win. One login. Same workspace.
Bid discovery. Every night the Workspace scans ~130 public sources across Alabama, Mississippi, Florida, and Louisiana — DOT lettings, county RFPs, municipal public works, ADEM notices, USACE. Scores every bid against the trades you selected at signup, sorts by how soon it closes.
What lands in front of you: a short list. Not a firehose. Usually three to ten items worth a look, with the sole-bidder situations flagged, the closing-today bids flagged urgent, and the multi-week horizon there but quiet.
Fifteen trades to choose from. A GC picks whatever fits — paving, utilities, C&G, sitework, whatever. A single-trade shop picks one. Onboarding takes about 90 seconds.
DOT bid lettings, county and city RFPs, ADEM public notices, USACE, plus per-county news feeds for smaller postings. Runs every night. You don’t configure the scan — the trades you picked drive everything.
Short list, scored against your trades, sorted by deadline. Sole-bidder situations flagged. Bids scoped outside your work don’t make the list.
A general contractor doing site work, utilities, and paving picks all three. A union electrical sub picks electrical and low voltage. Scoring adjusts automatically — bids get scored against your actual work, not a generic industry template.
The current source list — visible inside the app and expanded regularly — includes:
~130 sources across AL, MS, FL, LA today. List grows with paying customers.
Every SaaS pitch claims to do everything. BidIntel does one thing well, and doesn’t pretend to do the rest.
It is a two-part workspace: bid discovery + job tracking. Both simple. Both honest. Both in one login.
Everything in the paid plan. No credit card. Cancel by doing nothing.
Cancel anytime. Your data exports to CSV whenever you want. No annual contract.
No hidden fees. No per-seat pricing. Month-to-month.
Brian Knight built BidToolkit Workspace while working as a field engineer for a Gulf Coast paving contractor. The product exists because he was tired of missing bid announcements — the ones that pass through your inbox on a Tuesday and close on a Friday you spent in the truck.
If the Workspace doesn’t help you find work you’d otherwise miss — or manage the work you’ve already got — don’t pay for it. That’s the reason for the free trial with no credit card. Try it. If it doesn’t earn its keep, walk.
