Stop turning down work
Your estimator is maxed out. Argus turns bid day chaos into clear decisions — so you can bid on every opportunity, not just the ones you have time for.
See It Live With Your DataThe Problem
Bid day is broken
On bid day, your estimator receives 10–15 vendor quotes in hours — PDFs, Excel files, emails — all in different formats. They have to verify each one matches scope, hunt for exclusions buried on page 64 or 112, compare prices across five different layouts, and enter selections into bid sheets. Under time pressure, mistakes happen. A single missed exclusion can cost you the job.
And the real cost isn't just errors — it's the work you never bid on. When your estimator spends 6 hours per bid on manual review, capacity tops out. You start declining opportunities. Competitors win projects you could have done.
