BID2WIN Software

BID2WIN Software Inc. is a privately held company based in Portsmouth, New Hampshire that develops, manufactures, sells, and supports estimating and bidding, field tracking and analysis, and resource planning and dispatching software for the construction industry.

Originally founded in 1993 under the name Niche Software, the company was the first to build an estimating and bidding program using Microsoft .NET and SQL Server, as well as the first in its field to become a Microsoft certified partner. By using Microsoft development standards, BID2WIN Software has created products that look and perform like other Microsoft applications, making them intuitive and easy to use. The company currently sells two products, BID2WIN Estimating & Bidding and the BUILD2WIN Integrated Construction Management Suite, which currently includes two modules - Field (field tracking & analysis), released in January 2008 and Logistics (resource planning & dispatching), released in June 2011. The suite will also include a third module, Maintenance (equipment maintenance & repair management), which is scheduled to be released next year.

In May 2011, BID2WIN Software released new versions of their estimating and bidding and field tracking solutions, BID2WIN 2011 and BUILD2WIN Field Version 2.3, which feature updates based on user feedback gathered via BID2WIN Software’s 24/365 technical support hotline, client surveys and annual User Conference.

The company received a Contractor's Choice Award from Roads & Bridges Magazine for the past three years, with BID2WIN Estimating & Bidding receiving the award in 2008 and 2009, and BUILD2WIN Field receiving the award in 2010.
