Constructionbidonline.com Is A New Bid Platform Under The Sun

Online, April 11, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Construction Bid Online is a new bid platform that Buyers use for Free; where Contractors can access complete Photos, Videos, and written specifications for all open jobs in their area without buying their construction leads in advance.

Not only that, Buyers and Contractors have their own Construction Consultant with 'boots on the ground' available to both parties to manage the work and keep the bidding open, transparent and on schedule.

Founder Wayne Matthews, a long time General Contractor in the Richmond Virginia area, announced that Construction Bid Online will preview in that market and the Raleigh-Durham North Carolina area beginning May 1st.

"Bidding construction projects has become a nightmare for both home builders and remodelers in any market these days. Everyone tries to find any lead they can from any source. Most of that is done online through lead services. The catch is; you have to pay for the lead, before you can see the details. Then you have to schedule an appointment with the property owner or management company at their site to find out what they want and if it suits your skills and schedule."

"It's a lot of hassle", John Beamer who owns a framing company in Virginia reports. "I've got to buy the lead, try to get through by phone to the owner, then spend the gas to drive out to the job site when we both have time, just to see if I can satisfy the Buyer and make a little money for my men."

Buyer's have the same problems with the current system.

"I was flooded with calls." says Mark Conroy, who owns a small ranch in Western North Carolina. I was talking to people I didn't know, trying to explain questions I didn't understand, then inviting strangers out to my ranch in the country at times I couldn't afford to spend with them. Most turned around and left after I showed them the work that I needed done."

At www.constructionbidonline.com all those issues are solved. Everyone works off the same information. Buyers can invite Bidders based on the profiles they see at the site, or open it up to anyone who's signed up as a member. A contractor basic plan allow them to make up to 10 bids a month at no cost. It may be the life saver that contractors need in today's market. For more information please visit http://www.constructionbidonline.com
