Platform

A record, not a dashboard.

BidLayer connects every obligation in the plans, specifications, addenda, and quotes to its treatment in the estimate — and documents the result.

The record, screen by screen.

From document intake to signed verdict, every review produces the same artifacts: a coverage ledger, a findings queue, and a readiness record.

BidLayer coverage ledger listing 212 obligations with coverage status, source documents, and linked estimate lines
Coverage ledger · Product interfaceEvery obligation extracted from the plans, specifications, addenda, and quotes, linked to the estimate line that covers it — with conflicts, uncovered scope, and proposed links surfaced for decision.
BidLayer findings queue showing seven findings ranked by exposure with severity, review area, and disposition
Findings queue · Product interfaceMaterial findings ranked by exposure — each with severity, review area, quantified exposure, and a disposition that must be closed or accepted before signoff.
BidLayer readiness record with a Ready with conditions verdict, area-by-area check results, conditions, and signoff panel
Readiness record · Product interfaceAn immutable verdict with signoff: what was checked area by area, what was not, the conditions on the verdict, and the exposure repriced into the bid.

Four steps from bid package to approval.

Your team keeps its existing tools. BidLayer sits between estimating and approval — works alongside EDGE, Excel, Bluebeam, and your existing approval process.

01

Connect the bid package

Estimate, plans, specifications, addenda, quotes, proposal, and schedule assumptions.

02

Reconcile the estimate

Connect requirements, quantities, costs, resources, and proposal commitments.

03

Close material findings

Give every issue evidence, exposure, a responsible owner, and a required action.

04

Approve with confidence

Recheck corrections and document the risks accepted before submission.

Not a prompt window. A pre-bid control system.

BidLayer turns estimate review into structured company data. Each review strengthens the standards, history, and decision record behind the next bid.

01

Evidence-linked review

Trace every material finding to the estimate line and governing project document.

02

Company standards

Apply approved labor, waste, equipment, supervision, and margin policies consistently.

03

Correction workflow

Assign findings, capture responses, verify corrections, and document accepted risk.

04

Estimate-to-actual learning

Turn completed-job outcomes into better production assumptions and future reviews.

Make every major bid approval-ready.
