Clinchbid
For commercial door & hardware distributors

Win the bids your CRM
can’t even count.

Clinchbid is the bid intelligence layer for commercial subcontractors. We track every GC bidding every project, route new ITBs to the rep who owns the relationship, and show you the one report Pipedrive’s data model structurally can’t produce: your true win rate per contractor.

The differentiator

Process automation
+ rep-GC relationship
intelligence.

Generic CRMs assume one deal = one customer. Door distributors bid the same project to four, six, eight GCs at once — each at a different price, each with a different rep working them for years. Clinchbid is built around that reality.

01 · The multi-bidder pipeline
One project, N bidders, real per-GC pricing
Track Turner at $641K, Whiting-Turner at $648K, and Skanska at $672K on the same project. Mark the winner. Reporting stays clean — no duplicated deals, no stuffed custom fields.
02 · Auto-assignment by rule
Every inbound ITB lands with the right rep
Named assignment rules route incoming bid invitations based on the GC, the region, or the rep who owns the relationship. No more inbox roulette. No more “who’s on Suffolk this week?”
03 · Win rate per contractor
Find the ITB-blasters; double down on the real ones
See which GCs award you at 30%+ and which send you ITBs they never had any intention of awarding. Stop quoting the blasters. Win more by bidding less.
The killer report

Win rate per GC. The report your data model can’t produce.

Sorted by award rate. Tinted by relationship quality. Every row is a decision: keep bidding, raise prices, or walk away.

Clinchbid Win Rate by GC report — table of general contractors sorted by award rate, showing Turner Construction at 55.3% and Suffolk Construction flagged as a blaster at 2.3% (2 wins out of 87 submitted bids).
The yellow row is the insight you didn’t know you needed. Suffolk has sent you 87 invitations to bid and awarded 2. That is a quoting machine you should stop feeding.
Built for

Commercial subcontractors who bid in volume.

First vertical: commercial door & hardware distributors. Adjacent verticals (electrical, mechanical, fire & life safety) on the roadmap.

The CEO who can’t see win rate

You know revenue. You know gross margin. You don’t know whether Suffolk is a paying customer or just feeding you quotes to keep their other distributors honest.

The estimator drowning in ITBs

Inbox-driven assignment. The same GC’s ITB goes to a different rep every time. Nobody owns the relationship. Win rate suffers and you don’t know why.

The rep with a real book

Five years working Turner’s Boston office and the new hire keeps replying to their ITBs. Clinchbid’s ownership matrix makes the relationship structure visible — and routes the work accordingly.

The ops lead pricing the floor

Per-bidder pricing means real spread analysis. See which GCs push your prices down and which give you room. Price the next bid with data, not gut.

Currently in pilot

Design-partner pricing through 2026.

We’re onboarding a small group of door & hardware distributors as design partners. Locked-in pricing, direct line to the team, and your priorities shape the roadmap.
