Start from BidGrid
BidGrid is your project's Bid Packages tab. Fill it from your plans and specs, from cost codes, from BuildingConnected or Procore, or with Connie.
BidGrid is the Bid Packages tab in your project. When you open a fresh project, it is empty until you add packages. There are four ways to fill it.
- Build them from your plans and specs with Build bid packages.
- Create bid packages by hand from the cost code list.
- Import them from BuildingConnected or Procore.
- Ask Connie to set them up, or to build them from a takeoff or a plain list of trades.
Tip: Tell Connie the trades by name, such as “create packages for site concrete, structural steel, and electrical”, and she builds all three at once.

What Consight does
Consight is a bid leveling tool that reads subcontractor bids, matches line items to your scope, and lines up every bidder side by side in a scope sheet.
Get started with a new project
Every Consight project follows one path. Create it, add bid packages, import or create scope, upload bids, and run Level Bids to match them to your scope.
The recommended bid leveling workflow
To level a bid package, set up the project, add files and packages, upload bids, run Level Bids, review Suggested Items and each bidder, then soft award.
Why you should still review AI matches
Consight gets most AI matches right, but check high-value items with View in Bid, rate matches thumbs up or down, and do a final pass before you soft award.
