UDA Technologies, the leading provider of construction project management software, announced the release of Bid Tracking for ConstructionOnline. This powerful new module provides construction professionals with a centralized platform for end-to-end bid management—from creating bid packages and sending bid invitations to tracking bid submissions and awarding contracts.
Construction bid management has traditionally involved coordinating multiple bidders across emails, spreadsheets, and shared files—a fragmented approach that often leads to missed deadlines, incomplete submissions, and delayed award decisions. ConstructionOnline's new Bid Tracking feature eliminates these inefficiencies by consolidating all bid management activity into a single, organized workspace designed to improve visibility, accountability, and decision-making throughout the entire bidding process.
Bid Tracking in ConstructionOnline gives construction teams complete control over every stage of the bidding process. Users can create detailed Bid Packages that include all relevant project documentation, specifications, plans, and bid sheets, ensuring subcontractors and vendors have the information they need to submit accurate, competitive bids. Customizable Bid Sheets allow teams to define scope, outline pricing requirements, and standardize submissions—making side-by-side comparisons simple and award decisions more confident.
"Effective bid management is critical to winning profitable work and maintaining strong vendor relationships," said Holly Gipson, Vice President of Growth & Revenue Operations.
With ConstructionOnline's new Bid Tracking module, construction professionals can bring consistency and control to their bidding process—reducing manual effort, improving submission quality, and making faster, more informed award decisions."
One of Bid Tracking's most powerful capabilities is real-time activity tracking. Teams can monitor when Bid Invitations are sent and received, track intent-to-bid responses, and see exactly when Bid Submissions come in. Automated status updates—such as Open, Reviewing Bids, Awarded, or Deadline Passed—provide instant visibility into where bid packages stand, helping teams stay organized and proactive throughout the bid process.
This level of transparency extends to individual bidder activity as well. Construction managers can see which subcontractors and vendors are engaged, identify gaps in participation, and follow up strategically to ensure competitive pricing and avoid last-minute delays.
Bid Tracking integrates seamlessly with ConstructionOnline's suite of industry-leading construction financial management tools. Bid Sheets can be created from scratch, imported directly from existing estimates, or built from associated change orders—providing flexibility to match any workflow. Once bids are awarded, teams can transition directly to Purchase Orders or Subcontracts, maintaining continuity from bidding through procurement and eliminating duplicate data entry.
"The ability to move seamlessly from bid to award to purchasing means our clients can maintain momentum on their projects without losing critical information along the way," added Gipson. "It's all about keeping projects moving efficiently while protecting margins and minimizing risk."
ConstructionOnline continues to lead the construction software industry with innovative tools designed to help builders increase profits, stay on target, reduce risks, and make better business decisions. With over 950,000 users worldwide managing more than $85 billion in construction projects daily, ConstructionOnline has earned recognition as the #1 construction project management software by leading industry experts year after year.
