Construction intelligence

Find the right work. Bid it with confidence.

VendoWorks gives specialty trade contractors the intelligence to find the right opportunities and turn dense RFP packages into trade-scoped, verifiable bid analysis — one platform built for how you actually work.

VendoWorks is pre-beta; we’re building with a small group of trade businesses.

01The problemSound familiar?

Stop reading someone else’s sheets.

You know the drill: broad government procurement feeds to sift for the handful of jobs in your trade, then a plan and spec package to review by hand — effort spent on sheets that were never yours, and quantities that are hard to trace back to where they came from.

VendoWorks is built for specialty trade contractors, with an initial focus on low-voltage security and fire protection.

Coverage beyond these trades is not yet confirmed — tell us your trade and we’ll be straight with you about where we are.

I scroll government procurement feeds and most of what comes back is not my trade.
Every RFP package means reading hundreds of sheets to find the handful that are mine.
When a number lands in my bid, I can’t easily point at the drawing it came from.
02How it worksOne journey

One journey, three steps.

VendoWorks is building construction intelligence for specialty trade contractors. Everything we build serves these three steps — nothing else.

STEP 1

Find the right work

Browse government RFP opportunities matched to your trades and regions, and keep the ones worth pursuing — instead of reading feeds full of work that was never yours.

  • Matched to the trades and regions you actually work in
  • Opportunity discovery is scoped to government procurement sources
  • Keep a shortlist worth pursuing, and drop the rest
 STEP 2

Read the plans by your trade

Upload the plan and spec package. VendoWorks reads it for your trade and extracts quantities with their sources attached, so you work the sheets that matter instead of the whole set.

  • Only the sheets that matter for your trade
  • Every extracted quantity in VendoWorks carries provenance you can review and correct
  • Spec-versus-drawing mismatches surfaced, not hidden
 STEP 3

Review, correct, and bid

Check every count against the drawing or spec it came from and correct what is wrong. Where the specs and the drawings disagree, VendoWorks surfaces the mismatch instead of silently choosing.

  • Corrections are yours — you decide what the number should be
  • Analysis results are reviewed by people before they reach a bid — VendoWorks is not autonomous bidding
  • The review step is the product, not a disclaimer
03Read the plans by your tradeIllustrative plan

Only the sheets that matter for your trade.

Upload the plan and spec package. VendoWorks reads it for your trade and extracts quantities with their sources attached, so you work the sheets that matter instead of the whole set. Switch a trade off and its devices leave the sheet.

Illustrative plan and counts. Hover a device for its tag and sheet.

04Inside the drawingActual application · pre-beta

Check every count against its source.

The same idea, captured from the pre-beta application: one sheet, nineteen located smoke detectors, and the first three of them. The drawing fades to grey; the device you are checking stays yellow.

A sheet-level count. The project-wide quantity is larger and spans other sheets.

05Review, correct, and bidActual application · pre-beta

When sources disagree, you make the call.

Where the specs and the drawings disagree, VendoWorks surfaces the mismatch instead of silently choosing. Analysis results are reviewed by people before they reach a bid — VendoWorks is not autonomous bidding.

Actual application capture: Counts differ. Smoke Detector, drawings 133, specification 2. Recommended: use 133 from the drawings, a sheet-level count with provenance, where the specification figure is prose. Classified as Electrical in the drawings and Fire Alarm / Life Safety in the specification. Found on E4.01, E4.02, E4.12, E4.21, E4.31, E4.32, E4.41, E4.42.
Your review
Correct or incorrect — the decision stays with you.
Scope
133 spans the eight sheets listed; it is not the 19 on E4.12.
