The problem

Forty proposals a month. Hundreds of pages each.

Every state DOT publishes a letting each month. Somebody on your team is supposed to read all of it and find the jobs that need your material. They do their best. They still miss things.

40–55 proposals per letting

Each one runs dozens to hundreds of pages: plans, special provisions, and a schedule of items buried in the middle.

Hours of reading, every month

Your best salesperson scrolls PDFs looking for riprap and base course instead of calling contractors.

Missed lettings

The bridge job that needed 2,400 tons of your riprap was on page 140. Nobody got to page 140.

How it works

Three steps. None of them are yours.

STEP 1

We read every letting

Each month, every proposal in every DOT letting you monitor. Every page, including the schedule of items and the plan sheets, not just the summary.

STEP 2

We match your products

The bill of materials is pulled out and matched against what you sell: riprap, crushed aggregate, base course, limestone, storm pipe, whatever your list is. Each project gets a score from 1 to 5.

STEP 3

Scored leads in your inbox by 7:30 a.m.

One email a day. Quantities, letting date, county, why it matched, and a link straight to the source documents so you can check our work.

US 30 Resurfacing, Cedar Rapids to Mount Vernon

HMA resurfacing with shoulder widening and subdrain replacement, 11.4 miles.

Modified subbase 11,200 tons and granular shoulder material 4,100 tons on the schedule of items. No riprap or pipe items.

1

Score and label

1 to 5. A 5 means the schedule of items names your products in quantity. A 3 means there's something there, but it's small or a stretch.

2

Source DOT, letting date, county

Which state, when it lets, and where the work is, so you know whose territory it is and how much time you have.

3

Project title and summary

The DOT's project name plus a one-line description of the work in plain English.

4

Why it matched

The actual line items and quantities LeadSifter found. This is the part your estimator reads first.

5

Link to the source documents

Straight to the DOT's proposal and plans. Check our work in one click.

We don't help you find projects or manage bids. We read the documents and tell you which ones have your products in them.

Not a bid-management tool. Keep using whatever you use to track and submit bids.
Not early project intelligence. We work from the letting documents, when the quantities are real.
A supplier-side document reader. It reads so your people don't have to.
