The Platform

Market Data

Who bid, what they bid, and how much work they're carrying.

Live: CA · FL · GA · KY · MO · NC · OH

Custom & Municipal Bid Tabs

Upload county, city and airport tabs in bulk, as PDF, Excel, CSV or a phone photo. An agent pulls the line items, bidders and unit prices. You review and approve.

Owner Funding

Awarded funding by owner and year, vendor share, and each owner's latest letting date.

Pricing and Margin

What to bid and how we won or lost.

Price Forecasting

Forecast competitor unit prices from the bid tabs behind them. Historical asphalt prices adjust to today's liquid index.

Similar Bids

Suggested comparable jobs, dollar-based win rate, and the margin that would have won.

Bid Sensitivity

See where you would have ranked, and what you would have made, at different margins.

Post-Bid Recap

Every bidder and line item against your estimate, so you know where you landed and why.

Bid Documents

Agents read the bid package so your estimators don't start from page one.

Line items pulled and ready to export.

FAQ

Questions estimators ask us.

If I upload my bids, can competitors see them?

No. Your uploads, forecasts and pricing stay in your company’s account. Other customers see public DOT data only. Edgevanta has completed a SOC 2 Type II Security Audit.

Isn't bid tab data free on the DOT website?

The tabs are public. Collecting, cleaning and matching them across every DOT is the work. Forecasting, Similar Bids, Bid Sensitivity and Pay Estimates are built on top of that data.

How current is the data?

Bid tabs are in the platform within about two business days of the owner posting them. Coverage includes all 50 state DOTs, Washington, D.C., toll authorities and design-build.

Do you cover county, city and airport work?

Yes. Upload the tabs you already have as PDF, Excel, CSV or photos. An agent extracts them, you approve them, and they show up next to your DOT data for forecasting.

Does it work with HeavyBid, B2W or InEight?

Yes. Import your pricing from HeavyBid, InEight or B2W.

Is this just ChatGPT or Claude?

No. The agents run on highway bid data and are trained on thousands of bid documents with comprehensive evaluations. Every answer cites the page it came from, and your estimator reviews and approves the output.

How long does setup take?

Average setup time is 3 days. A customer success manager runs onboarding and trains your team.

How is Edgevanta priced?

An annual license based on the number of users and the number of agencies you bid. Every feature is included, with no add-ons or usage fees. Request a demo for a quote.
