Description

Bid Control is a service designed to assist contractors in discovering and preparing public bids from various agencies, including cities, counties, and school districts. It tracks over 3,800 public entities along with more than 540 bid websites, handling upwards of 190,000 bid pages each month. The platform highlights opportunities categorized by trade and service area, offering essential details such as contract values, submission deadlines, necessary forms, site visit information, and other relevant bid specifics. Additionally, users can set up bid alerts, access preliminary insights from agency meetings and budget discussions, examine historical award data, and monitor any alterations to bid dates or documentation. The Bid Builder feature streamlines the bid preparation process by auto-filling forms with the contractor's company details, while the Bid Team offers support with planning and managing paperwork. Contractors are able to explore available opportunities and coordinate their bid workflows conveniently through a browser on their smartphones, tablets, or computers. New users can initiate three job applications at no cost and without needing to provide credit card information, allowing them to test the service's effectiveness. This comprehensive approach ensures that contractors are well-equipped to navigate the bidding process efficiently.
