## About PreconSuite
PreconSuite is a leading cloud-based preconstruction software used by general contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers to simplify the preconstruction bidding process. PreconSuite allows for bid invitations or addenda to be sent in minutes, set automatic bid reminders, track sub activity, and qualify your subs. Complex bidding scenarios can be processed using Bid Packages and Bid Phases where invites can be sent with different scope verbiage and bid dates for each bid package, restrict plans/specs/documents across bid packages then rebid in the future with 1-click. Easily create itemized bid tabulation sheets then compare them side-by-side to identify scope discrepancies and level each bid. Our feature-rich forms module, typically used for prequalification, allows you to gather any data/documents pertinent to your company. Customized reports can be generated using the information gathered. In PreconSuite your emails look like they come from your email. Vendors do not have to register or login to access your plan room. Most importantly, you own and can edit your data anytime!

## PreconSuite Reviews
  ### 1. Next Level Customer Service

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Lisa M. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2023

**What do you like best about PreconSuite?**

Pipeline ties all the aspects of the bid package together. It allows us to get informtion to the bidders quickly and proficently. We can monitor the timelines, whos bidding and wh's not, and manage our database effectively.

Also needed to contact Chat option for help. Had NO idea Rick Dill would be the person i connected with. VERY impressive to have someone who spends time fielding customer inquiries, says a lot about how much the company cares about the level of customer service they provide.

**What do you dislike about PreconSuite?**

I think the knowldge base should have more key words for novice users to help find help articles.

**What problems is PreconSuite solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Pipeline ties all the aspects of the bid package together. It allows us to get informtion to the bidders quickly and proficently. We can monitor the timelines, whos bidding and wh's not, and manage our database effectively.

**Official Response from Pam Smith:**

> Thank you for your review and your feedback.  We will be making changes to our Knowledge Base.  In the meantime, please don't hesitate to ask questions if there is something you need help with.  We are reachable via chat, through email at support@pipelinesuite.com or contact your rep directly.

  ### 2. Very easy to use but limited for advanced users

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Michael P. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2023

**What do you like best about PreconSuite?**

The setup is very simple for anyone without strong computer skills. I work with project managers in their 60s and 70s who have no problem viewing plans and sending bids. It is also easy to store and look up contractors and suppliers.

**What do you dislike about PreconSuite?**

Contractors and suppliers can upload bids, but they bids will not be attached to a project. It makes it more difficult to build an overall bid with this system. There is also an app that only shows the ddress book. It would be very helpful to have the entire program on the phone.

**What problems is PreconSuite solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It makes it easy for me to send out bid invites with the plans and specifications. Our estimation team also uses it to view plans. I like being able to see who is viewing the projects.

**Official Response from Pam Smith:**

> Michael, Thank you for feedback. Let's schedule some time so we can show you the advanced features including our Bid Tabulation / Bid Leveling module. Bids are definitely attached to the project and you can compare them side by side to help identify any glaring differences, and then level your bids.  Either reach out to your rep directly or send an email to support@pipelinesuite.com.

  ### 3. Very Useful Tool

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Carrie A. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2023

**What do you like best about PreconSuite?**

Web-based Invitation to Bid software that doesn't sell our company database & doesn't try to manipulate our subcontractors into buying a subscription. I love that our list stays our own & our subs do not get hundreds of unwanted emails from unknown companies. (Which is easily my biggest gripe of their competitors.) The system is easy to use. The reports are useful especially for proof of call logs & XBE participation goals. Our subcontractors like it too. Easy to download documents & submit bids.

**What do you dislike about PreconSuite?**

If you don't click "update" & forget before clicking out of the tab (or your internet blinks out), you will loose your changes. Other than that, I love it.

**What problems is PreconSuite solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Sending out Invitations easily, quickly & allowing my Subcontractors to dowload the plans.

  ### 4. Great for Commercial Construction

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** steven s. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2023

**What do you like best about PreconSuite?**

Ease of use. There are lots of complex bidding software solutions out there, what I like about pipeline is it's simplicity. Bidders recieve an email and have all they need to interact with pipeline in that email. It's very easy to create a job and send out invites. Customer support is responsive, when I have had a problem it's been resolved within the day. It is very easy to update contacts, estimators change often and it's easy to update email contacts to make sure the correct bidder is getting the information.

**What do you dislike about PreconSuite?**

The user interface could use a refresh, but it is very functional.

**What problems is PreconSuite solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Pipeline makes sending bid inivitations out a breeze. A job can be created, uploaded, and invitations sent out in under 10 minutes.

**Official Response from Pam Smith:**

> Thanks for your review!  We do have an updated user interface.  Please either contact your rep directly or support@pipelinesuite.com and we will ensure you are using the latest version.

  ### 5. Easy to use efficient solicitation software

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** James Z. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2023

**What do you like best about PreconSuite?**

Pipeline is very easy to use, tracks all of your subcontractors information, bids etc. Sending out an Invitation to Bid and all of the associated documents and pictures is a very smooth user friendly process.

**What do you dislike about PreconSuite?**

The only real downside that I see to Pipelins is that a lot of other construction management software platforms are providing more or less the same service.

**What problems is PreconSuite solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Pipeline offers a great way to keep track of the bids you are receiving, bids that you are waiting for and who has accessed the documents. It also allows us to keep track of which bidders are consistently bidding, or not, and helps us keep all the contact information up to date.

**Official Response from Pam Smith:**

> Thanks for your review!  We would be happy to walk you through many of our differentiators.  Contact your rep directly or support@pipelinesuite.com and we can show you what sets us apart.

  ### 6. Great ITB Software

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jason G. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2023

**What do you like best about PreconSuite?**

The best part of pipeline is that you owe your database.  You create, maintain, and build your list of subcontractors that can help you win your projects.  It does a great job of building a database of information on your subs.  It is very easy to use the sotfaware and the support team does a great job of answering any questions you have.  We use it everyday for all of our poejcts.

**What do you dislike about PreconSuite?**

The only thing that pipeline could improvde is the ability to search past proejcts.

**What problems is PreconSuite solving and how is that benefiting you?**

This oftware gives us the ability to create bid lists for all of our pojects and clients to ensure we get good sub converage on every bid

**Official Response from Pam Smith:**

> Thanks for the review Jason!  You do have the ability to search past projects.  Contact your rep directly or send an email to support@pipelinesuite.com and we would be happy to show you how.

  ### 7. Ten + years of bidding

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tim V. | Construction Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 20, 2023

**What do you like best about PreconSuite?**

Some of the features that I appreciate about Pipeline are: 1)  It tracks the frequency that contractors respond because we often do 80% of our work with same 20% of companies. 2) Ability to sort contractors by city when selecting bidders allowing you to increase the geogrphical radius of bidders. 3) You can integrate your own database while searching for new contractors. 4) Customer support has always responded very quickly. 5) I found It more user friendly than other software.

**What do you dislike about PreconSuite?**

Not much but they could improve on finding new subcontractors to bid.

**What problems is PreconSuite solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Reaching out to contractors that I do not know or have worked with previously.

**Official Response from Pam Smith:**

> Thanks for the review Tim!  We do have a full-time Directory team that contacts subs to verify and add to the Directory.  If you are ever lacking coverage in a trade or area, we have the "Find Me More Subs" feature.  Reach out to your rep directly or contact support@pipelinesuite.com and we would be happy to show you this feature.

Not much to dislike. Anytime we do have something come up, they are quick to make the changes we request.

  ### 10. Good bid software but could be great with some tweaking

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Aaron A. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2023

- Being able to track who views, clicks, or downloads project information
- Bid calendar that shows my bid date, subs bid date, walk throughs etc

Bid reminders need some optimization I feel that I'm constantly filtering out emails from people saying theyve already said yes, or getting reminders at bid day / after submission.

Getting my bid information out to my subcontractors in a more efficient manner, being able to alert people of plan changes and or bid changes.

  ### 12. The BEST option we found for Bid Invitations and Subcontractor database management.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Clint U. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2023

**What do you like best about PreconSuite?**

Pipeline Suite has a simple format that just WORKS.  We send our bid inviations to hundreds of subcontractors per bid with ZERO issues and our subs have never had issues accessing the information.  The platform also allows Subcontractors to update their own company contact details as things change within their businesses to ensure they aren't missing any bid invitations from us.

Customer Support has also been STELLAR.  Brittney is always available when/if we need her and they have implemented several of our suggestions into their software over the last few years.

**What do you dislike about PreconSuite?**

We have had no issues with the Pipeline Suite program.

**What problems is PreconSuite solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Pipeline Suite streamlines our bid invitation process and helps us keep our subcontractor database up to date.

  ### 13. Excellent Bid Management Software

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Construction | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2023

**What do you like best about PreconSuite?**

Pipeline Suite is very easy to use and learn.  It was recommended to us by one of our JV partners, and we've been very happy with it.  Their customer support team made implementation a breeze, and have been very prompt in answering and addressing any questions we might have.  We previously used iSqFt and ConstructConnect Bid Management, and find Pipeline Suite to superior in every possible way.

**What do you dislike about PreconSuite?**

Bidder are catergorized by trades, so when you import your bid lists, you have to make sure that the trades are properly assigned, or else all the bidders go into an unassigned category and you have to manually assign them to a trade.

**What problems is PreconSuite solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Pipeline Suite streamlines our bid management process.

  ### 14. Easy and Functional

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Construction | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2023

**What do you like best about PreconSuite?**

I have used all of the other programs out there and as an estimator for commercial construction, Pipeline just has the most bang for the buck for managing your bid invitations, documents and correspondence to subs.  I'ts user friendly and has everything you need.

**What do you dislike about PreconSuite?**

I would love the ability for document OCR and naming of plans like the "other guys" have...

**What problems is PreconSuite solving and how is that benefiting you?**

When it comes to bid management, timing and document management is everything.  Pipeline allows us to get information out quickly and to the right people.  It also allows us to see what our subcontractors are doing with our invites so on bid day we are able to see who our players are going to be.

**Official Response from Pam Smith:**

> Thanks for the nice review. We plan on adding the feature for document OCR and naming of plan sheets soon!

  ### 15. Pipeline Suite Review

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Joe C. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2023

**What do you like best about PreconSuite?**

Userability. I have used other platforms that are terrible to use. Pipeline is easy to pick up for anyone.

**What do you dislike about PreconSuite?**

There isn't much to dislike, some of the windows are too small when selecting for a new project. Groups for example is a small box that jumps past some of the selections when scrolling.

**What problems is PreconSuite solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Procurement of bids. Our current internal database is clunky, and difficult to send out invitations (multiple mass emails). This simplifies that process.

**Official Response from Pam Smith:**

> Thanks for your review Joe!

  ### 16. Love this software!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kirsten V. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2023

**What do you like best about PreconSuite?**

The ability to create and tender a project in under an hour

**What do you dislike about PreconSuite?**

I've been a pipeline user for over 3-4 years now, and not much has changed. I feel
There could be some updated software, easier catergorizing of trade groups and a more modern look for the tender invites.

All in all a great product that gets the job done though

**What problems is PreconSuite solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I'm not really sure

  ### 18. Easy & fast product

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Construction | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2023

**What do you like best about PreconSuite?**

It's nice to use Pipeline Suite in my everyday setting. I can send plans, notices, etc. to multiple contacts easy and fast. It also allows me to keep a project organized. I use this site at least 1-2 times per week.

**What do you dislike about PreconSuite?**

The only downside I have, and it might be because I don't know, is the fact that it can take some time to learn how to use.

**What problems is PreconSuite solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It solves contacts being in one location, a database for the contacts, and it helps send emails and notices to the masses.

  ### 19. Excellent tool for our teams bidding coordination

  ### 20. Best Solicitation Service I Have Used

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Caleb H. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2023

**What do you like best about PreconSuite?**

Pipeline makes it very easy to target specific trade per job. Can send out ITBs in a fraction of the time it used to take. You can also send notices per trade and only to the vendors that clicked that they are bidding on the project.

**What do you dislike about PreconSuite?**

I do not like that the rolling 6 weeks shows previous weeks.

**What problems is PreconSuite solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I think they are working on getting a better link to a job if a vendor is not recieving the email from pipeline.

**Official Response from Pam Smith:**

> Thanks for your feedback!  The reason we show the prior week on the "Rolling 6 Weeks" calendar option is because on Monday users can see their projects with a bid date last Friday, since oftentimes they still have correspondence on projects just bid the prior work day (Friday). We asked our users their preference and the majority of users said they wanted to see the prior week.
