What is Bid Control?

Bid Control is a specialized service aimed at helping contractors locate and prepare for public bidding opportunities across a variety of agencies, such as cities, counties, and school districts. It monitors over 3,800 public entities and more than 540 bid platforms, processing around 190,000 bid pages every month. The service categorizes opportunities by trade and service area, providing vital information including contract values, submission deadlines, required forms, site visit details, and other pertinent bid information. Users can also set up bid alerts, gain access to initial insights from agency meetings and budget talks, review past award data, and keep track of any changes to bid dates or documentation. The Bid Builder feature optimizes the bid preparation process by automatically populating forms with the contractor's business information, while the Bid Team assists with planning and managing the associated paperwork. Contractors can easily browse available opportunities and manage their bid workflows across smartphones, tablets, or computers. New users are allowed to submit three job applications free of charge and without the need for credit card details, enabling them to evaluate the service's effectiveness firsthand. This all-encompassing approach guarantees that contractors are thoroughly prepared to handle the bidding process with confidence and efficiency, ultimately leading to increased chances of success in winning contracts.
