Construction Web Site Hits Nail on the Head

Since 1999 Constructionplace.com is still here and now creating new mobile solutions for our users and clients to achieve their ultimate goals!

In the September 8, 2000 issue of the San Francisco Business Times Brendan Doherty, Business Times Staff Writer published a column titled “Construction web sites don’t yet hit nail on head.”

We are amazed and pleased to say “We are still here” unlike most of the Construction web sites mentioned in the column it appears that only two remain online today, namely us “Constructionplace.com” and “Construction.com”.

The column says that for construction web sites the promise is large “it’s a place where there is not only lots of money but a lot of inefficiency”.

Well, our most recent efficiency innovations include making our site a mobile web site with solutions for marketing, bidding, negotiating and referring property(s), Projects, and Resources.

Bidding and Negotiating

In minutes registered users can create and send RFP’s (Requests for Proposals) to other registered or non-registered users for competitive bidding. The RFP can be sent to “closed” (private) lists of bidders or to the “open” (non-private) public including the option of sharing the RFP on Facebook or Linked In.

And it even gets better because track-able “Lets Negotiate”, “RFI’s” (Request for Information), and “Follow Up” features are built into the respective “RFP” and “Quick Bid” Action Centers.

If the RFP’s “Deliver your Proposal using CPC Quick Bid” option is selected the bidder needs only to include the Base Bid amount in the auto-filled /editable bid form, preview the bid and if “It looks great.. Send it” back to the RFP creator.

Quick Bids can also be created in the absence of RFP’s. In minutes registered users can create and send Bids for any project to other registered users or to contacts in their personal email client.

A “Bid Tabulator” is also available for comparing bids quickly and allowing the owner to negotiate with any or all bidders for selecting the right bidder for the project and getting the best value.

Referrals

For those Projects or Real Estate deals you can’t handle or if you know a good resource worthy of referring why not refer them to others. Our Referral Program is for Profiting while helping others to profit and succeed” and “Never miss making money again for referring someone or something”. You can even NEGOTIATE the Referral Fees with the Seller. Ask how to start your own referral business using this system.

Novice and Student Users

Novice and Students will find that Constructionplace.com makes a unique learning platform because test projects can be created and showcased. And our Free Self Help section contains interactive forms and worksheets. In addition we have couple of useful publications for purchase and download.
