Why you'll love HeavyBid.
Where do we begin? HeavyBid is jam-packed with the latest and greatest ways to enhance your estimating and win more bids. You’ll love it for oh-so many reasons.

Bid more in less time.
Let’s face it. Today’s bidding climate is growing more competitive every day. You’re probably seeing double—even triple—the amount of bidders on every project, and perhaps you’re bidding more work now than ever before. So how do you bid more work without increasing your estimating staff or sacrificing the quality of your estimates?
That’s where HeavyBid comes in. It can help you cut your estimating time in half or more, giving you the time to bid those crucial additional projects. You’ll bid more work than you ever did before in less time.
HeavyBid supports your workflow as an estimator and is designed with speed and efficiency in mind. You’ll estimate the same way you always have, just more powerfully.
Spend more time actually estimating.
So how much time do you spend estimating? And we mean actually estimating, like analyzing sub vs self-performed work, what-if scenarios, and risk. Truth is you probably don’t spend as much time as you’d like, right?
HeavyBid changes all of that. It helps you automate repetitive and tedious data entry so you spend more time actually estimating. You’ll work smarter and faster and be more efficient and productive. Now you have more time to analyze and use historical estimating data, fine-tune crews and productions, and analyze the estimate for absolute accuracy.
You’ll be able to work right up to bid time, taking last-minute quotes, making last-second cuts, and working with your prices to maximize profit. Then, you can instantly print your bid proposals or export directly to your DOT’s electronic bidding system.
With the increased effectiveness and productivity, HeavyBid is an investment that should more than pay for itself.
Estimate with greater accuracy and confidence.
You just can’t bid effectively if you’re not estimating your costs accurately.
HeavyBid helps you estimate more accurately by helping you to break down your costs to the lowest level of detail possible. You’ll estimate with greater confidence and be more competitive on every bid.
Furthermore, HeavyBid’s integration with other HCSS products results in precision unmatched by anyone else in the industry. Our revolutionary job management software, HeavyJob, records cost and production information and sends that information back into HeavyBid. Our fuel tracking software, FuelerPlus, tracks equipment fuel consumption rates in the field that HeavyBid can import.
Nothing is more powerful than having cost, production, and consumption information from the field, making your future estimating even more accurate. That’s power you can feel confident about.
Reduce risks and mistakes.
Be honest. When was the last time you were 100% confident that the estimate you just submitted didn’t have any mistakes? Ever win a job you thought was highly profitable only to realize that it wouldn’t be because you left money out of the estimate? Have you ever left extra money in your bid that cost you a job?
HeavyBid can help you eliminate these and other issues by identifying potential errors in your bid. Once identified, it takes you directly to each potential error in the estimate so you can quickly review it and correct it. Even better, HeavyBid can identify parts of your estimate that haven’t been reviewed yet, let you know when changes have been made, and give you an audit of any cost and prices changes made.
Plus, your data and estimates are secure because our security can be customized around your company’s security needs.
Now you can bid with more confidence. And you can’t argue with that.
Streamline more than just your estimating.
Your estimating system should do more than just help you win bids. After all, there’s more to construction than just estimating.
That’s why HeavyBid was designed to not only help make your estimating more efficient but also streamline other areas of your company. Eliminate the tedious work and double entry errors from manually creating job budgets. Let HeavyBid create it for you by exporting them to your accounting system. We work with every major accounting system on the market, such as Maxwell, ViewPoint, and Timberline. (See the accounting systems we work with.) Even if we haven’t worked with your accounting system before, no worries. We can write a custom export for you.
We didn’t stop at just accounting systems, though. We also work with scheduling software, like Primavera, to create resource and cost-loaded schedules. That means you’ll eliminate tedious double entry, reduce entry errors, and save hundreds of man hours.
And when partnered with other HCSS products like HeavyJob, The Dispatcher, and FuelerPlus? You’ll streamline your company in ways you only dreamed of.
There’s no doubt about it. HeavyBid connects your estimating and operations in a way unrivaled by anyone in the industry.
