BidClerk

BidClerk (another massive legacy player absorbed into ConstructConnect) operates in a very similar lane to iSqFt, but historically dominated different geographical regions of the United States. It is a pure, unadulterated lead generation machine for subcontractors and material suppliers who need to find active projects to bid on. Its primary strength is its highly aggressive focus on the "Private" construction market. Public projects (like a new state highway or a public high school) are relatively easy to find because the government is legally required to post them publicly. Private commercial projects (like a massive Amazon warehouse or a new luxury hotel) are fiercely guarded secrets. BidClerk's research team specializes in digging up these highly lucrative private projects. It provides incredibly granular filtering. A small commercial flooring contractor in Chicago can set up an automated alert that says: "Email me instantly the exact second a private retail project over $2 million is announced within 50 miles of my zip code, specifically if it requires luxury vinyl tile." This ensures the contractor isn't wasting time sorting through irrelevant residential or heavy highway projects.
