Your history
sets every price
Every line
traced back to the RFP
PDF, Word, Excel, or a whole ZIP. Scanned pages get OCR’d. BidFuel pulls the facts: owner, due date, site walk, bonds, prevailing wage, licensing.
Quantified work items, a compliance matrix, and required forms — each traceable back to the exact page in the RFP. Correct anything in place.
Every line suggests a price from your past jobs and a bottom-up cost build-up. Write your proposal in your own words and BidFuel checks it against the solicitation — and grades your submission — before you send it.
Reads the whole solicitation and returns quantified, unit-tagged work items — with the modifiers that actually move price.
Every submittal requirement and agency form, flagged mandatory vs optional and tracked to done — nothing slips before the deadline.
Bottom-up from crew, equipment, production, mob and haul. A cross-check on every number.
Each line suggests the median of your past prices, so bids stay consistent and defensible.
A live board of what’s open, what’s due, and your win rate by agency and size.
100%
Every extracted line links back to the exact page it came from. Correct anything in place.
Intake is where a bid starts. BidFuel also runs your deadline calendar, your price book, and what the competition charges — so nothing about a live bid is stranded in a spreadsheet.
