What it is
Bidtracer is cloud-based construction CRM software that brings estimating, engineering, project management, takeoff and finance tools together. It is designed for subcontractors, including mechanical, electrical and controls contractors, manufacturer representatives, distributors and manufacturers. The CRM tracks leads and opportunities, manages client history, automates communications and can copy details from prior proposals. Bid management tracks bids from budget to award, supports multiple customers per bid and offers notifications and reports. The invitation tool shares plans, specifications and addenda, tracks viewed addenda, gathers proposals and compares pricing in a grid. Estimating uses drag-and-drop technology and includes pricing for common manufacturers. Project management covers RFIs, change orders, submittals, procurement, documents and labor scheduling. Takeoff uses AI-based quantity detection to measure areas, lengths and quantities from digital construction drawings. The responsive interface supports PC or Mac and iOS or Android devices, works in several listed browsers and has a native iOS app. Pricing starts at $57/user/mo, and there is no free plan. The maker says the company was founded in 2005 and has offices in Mequon, Wisconsin and Scottsdale, Arizona.
