And it's not just bids. AI can also take the office and admin work off your plate.

The bid desk
Does this sound like your bid desk?
- Bid invites pile up faster than anyone can read them, so good jobs get passed over.
- Somebody spends hours digging through specs and drawings just to decide if a job is worth bidding.
- Sending packages to subs means the same emails, the same attachments, and the same list, every time.
- Chasing sub quotes eats the days before close, and half of them come in at the last minute.
- Comparing quotes means lining up numbers that never cover the same scope.
- Follow-up after you submit only happens when someone remembers.
None of this is an estimating problem. It's a process problem, and process is where AI helps most.
What's possible
What AI can do for your bidding
Every company bids differently, so these are possibilities, not promises. In the assessment, we can look at:
Reading bid invites.
Sorting incoming invites and pulling out the key details (scope, location, due date, bonding) so your team only opens the ones worth bidding.
Summarizing specs.
Pulling the sections that matter to your trade out of a long spec book, so estimators start faster.
Sending packages to subs.
Sending the right package to the right subs by trade, automatically, from your own list.
Chasing and tracking quotes.
Automatic reminders to subs before close, plus one place that shows who's in, who's out, and who hasn't answered.
Comparing bids.
Putting sub quotes side by side and flagging scope gaps and exclusions, so nothing gets missed.
Following up after you submit.
Steady, consistent check-ins with GCs and owners, so bids don't go cold.
The goal is simple: the same team bids more jobs, with less scrambling. Nobody gets replaced. Your people get their time back for the work that wins jobs.

And the office work that eats your evenings

An AI email assistant.
Sorting your inbox and drafting replies, so you only touch the emails that need you.
Invoicing.
Creating invoices from completed work, including progress billing and draws, working alongside tools like QuickBooks.
Invoice follow-ups and payment reminders.
Polite, automatic reminders so you're not the one chasing money.
Receivables tracking.
One clear view of what's billed, what's paid, and what's overdue.
An AI receptionist.
Answering calls while you're on site, taking details, and booking site visits.
Scheduling and paperwork.
Reminders for crews and subs, change orders and paperwork tracked, and review requests sent after every job.

FAQ
Questions
Can AI help with construction bidding?
Yes. AI is good at the repetitive work around bidding: sorting invites, summarizing specs, sending sub packages, chasing quotes, lining up bids, and following up. Your estimators still make the decisions. The assessment shows which of these would save your team the most time.
Will AI replace my estimators?
No. The point is to make your team more efficient so the same people can bid more jobs without you hiring. AI handles the busywork, and your estimators handle the judgment.
Can AI help with invoicing and office admin too?
Yes. Bidding is usually the first place to look, but AI can also sort your email and draft replies, create invoices and progress billing, send payment reminders, answer calls, and keep schedules and paperwork on track. The assessment shows which of these would save you the most time.
Do I need new software?
Not always. Sometimes the answer is a better process or better use of the tools you already pay for. The recommendation follows the problem, not the other way around.
What does the assessment cost?
It's normally $200 and free for a limited time, with only 7 of 10 free spots left. If you finish and you're not 100% clear on what to do next, I'll either refund your money or work with you until you are.
Do you work with construction companies outside Barrie?
Yes. Hawz is based in Barrie, Ontario, serving Simcoe County, and works with businesses across Canada, the U.S., and Mexico. We serve general contractors, trades, and subcontractors anywhere in North America, mostly online, and in person when it makes sense.
