Move every bid through clear stages, keep each GC and developer on one record, and forecast a lumpy pipeline with weighted deals.
14-day free trial of Professional, no credit card required.
What Is a CRM for Construction?
A CRM for construction companies tracks bids, general contractors, developers and repeat clients in one place. Every project, contact and touchpoint sits on one relationship record, so a bid that takes months still has an owner and a next step.
Estimating, scheduling and job costing stay in your construction software. KudosCRM covers the sales and relationship side.
Why Do Construction Bids Stall After the First Meeting?
Long cycles lose follow-up and relationship history. Each gap has a fix inside the CRM.
Challenge
Bids span months and follow-up falls through
How KudosCRM Helps
Long-cycle pipeline stages and reminders keep every bid moving without manual chasing.
Challenge
Relationships with GCs and developers are not tracked
How KudosCRM Helps
One record per relationship captures every project, contact and touchpoint over the years.
Challenge
Leadership cannot forecast a lumpy pipeline
How KudosCRM Helps
Weighted forecasting models large, irregular deals instead of treating every bid alike.
Keep a Six-Month Bid Moving Without Chasing
Set a stage and a reminder for each phase of a bid. Every deal carries an owner, a value and a next step.
Custom pipeline stages
Model your own bid process, with a win probability on each stage.
Tasks and reminders
Schedule the next call and see what is due today in My Day.
Custom fields
Record bid value, project type, trade and bid due date on the deal.
Track Every GC, Developer and Repeat Client in One Record
Open one company to see its contacts, deals and history. Your team knows what happened before the next bid goes out.
Company and contact records
Link estimators, owners' reps and project managers to the same company.
Activity timeline
Calls, emails, meetings and notes stay on the record in order.
Email on the record
Connect Gmail or Outlook so replies land on the right contact.
Forecast a Lumpy Pipeline With Weighted Deals
Each stage carries a win probability, and the forecast weights open bids by it. Large awards and quiet months both show up.
Win probability by stage
A bid at estimate counts for less than one awaiting a decision.
Target against attainment
See each rep's closed deals against their target.
Stuck bids flagged
Rot flags mark cards that sat too long in a stage.
