The construction industry thrives on collaboration and agility. Yet, traditional estimating software often falls short, creating bottlenecks in the bidding process. Inconsistent data, fragmented information, and time-consuming manual tasks can lead to missed deadlines and inaccurate bids.

Sage Estimating understands these challenges. That’s why they’ve introduced a game-changing solution: Sage BidMatrix, a native-cloud platform that streamlines collaboration and empowers informed bidding decisions.

Real-time Collaboration: Teamwork Makes the Dream Work

Sage BidMatrix solves the isolation of traditional estimating. It fosters real-time collaboration, allowing multiple users to work on the same estimate simultaneously. Imagine estimators, subcontractors, and project managers seamlessly sharing data and insights, leading to:

  • Faster turnaround times: Respond to bids quickly with efficient collaboration.
  • Reduced errors: Eliminate discrepancies by working from a single source of truth.
  • Improved communication: Foster clear communication throughout the bidding process.

Advanced Bid Analysis: Make Data-Driven Decisions

Sage BidMatrix doesn’t stop at collaboration. It empowers you with advanced bid analysis tools. Dive deep into the numbers with:

  • Powerful insights: Leverage Power BI to gain deeper insights from centralized estimating data. Identify trends and hidden costs across projects.
  • Data-driven decision-making: Model different project scenarios to optimize bids and make informed choices based on accurate analysis.

Doran Contractors, a leading general contractor, has seen firsthand the benefits of Sage BidMatrix. They attribute some of their big wins to the platform’s strength during the closing stages of bidding.

“Sage Estimating and BidMatrix helps us effectively manage the chaotic nature of the subcontractor selection process,” says a Doran Contractors representative. “It makes comparing subcontractor bids, evaluating project risks, and optimizing bid strategies a breeze.”

Seamless Integration

Sage Estimating integrates with Sage Intacct Construction, Sage 300 CRE and Sage 100 Contractor. This eliminates the need for manual data entry and minimizes errors, ensuring data flows smoothly across estimating, job costing, and accounting functions.
