Local Construction Bids
The big platforms focus on big jobs. We focus on the local stuff: cities, counties, townships, school districts. The work that gets posted quietly and awarded to whoever happens to be checking that day.
Why local bids get missed
A small city posts a $300K water line job on their website. It's not on any major platform. Unless you check that site specifically, you never know about it. Multiply that by hundreds of local governments in your region and that's a lot of work flying under the radar while everyone fights over the same DOT jobs.
City and county work
Public works, engineering, facilities, utilities. Cities have ongoing infrastructure needs and capital projects. County engineers handle roads, bridges, and buildings outside city limits. Every jurisdiction does procurement differently, posts to different sites, uses different platforms. Less glamorous than state DOT work, but often more accessible and less competitive.
Schools and small jurisdictions
K-12 facilities are constantly being renovated, expanded, and maintained. Bond issues fund big projects. Maintenance budgets fund ongoing work. Districts post independently to their own websites. Townships and villages still have roads to pave and buildings to maintain, but often post only to their own sites or to newspaper legal notices. Easy to miss if you're not systematically checking.
Legal notices still matter
Newspaper legal sections carry real bids from smaller entities. Required by law in many states. Contractors who read them face less competition because most people have stopped paying attention. We scan legal sections so you don't have to subscribe to a dozen papers.
