The problem

Public work isn't posted in one place. It never has been.

To find the building jobs in your area today, you have to check federal procurement, the state portal, the transportation department's lettings, every county purchasing page, every city purchasing page, the school systems, and the utility districts — each with its own site, its own format, and its own posting schedule.

Miss a week and you miss a job. Check them all and you burn an afternoon reading solicitations for office supplies and IT services to find the one or two projects that actually fit your crews.

How it works

Four steps between a posted solicitation and your inbox

01
Tell us what work you perform
Your trades, home ZIP code, travel radius, counties served, and the smallest and largest jobs you want to bid.
02
We monitor public opportunities
Federal, state, transportation, county, city, school, and utility district postings are collected every weekday.
03
AI filters and scores the projects
Each solicitation is read for trade, location, deadline, agency, value, pre-bid, bonding, and set-aside details, then scored 0-100 against your profile.
04
Relevant bids appear in your dashboard and email
Your matches land in the dashboard and in one weekday email. No portals to check, no work you'd never chase.

FAQ

Questions contractors ask first

Where do bids come from?: Public sources only — state procurement portals, TDOT lettings, county and city purchasing pages, school systems, utility districts, and other public agencies across Tennessee. We link you back to the official posting every time.
Do you guarantee I qualify?: No. We surface and score opportunities that look like a fit for your trades, area, and project size. Prequalification, licensing, bonding capacity, and set-aside eligibility are always determined by the awarding agency.
Do I still need to read the official documents?: Yes. Our summaries and match scores are a filter, not a substitute. Before bidding you should always read the full solicitation, plans, specifications, and addenda from the agency.
Can I cancel anytime?: Yes. Billing is self-service — cancel from your account page in two clicks. Access continues through the end of the period you already paid for.
Can I choose my service area?: You set a home ZIP code, a travel radius, and the specific counties you'll work in. Anything outside that range is filtered out before it ever reaches your inbox.
What types of contractors can use BuildLead Alerts?: Concrete, demolition, excavation, grading, utility, paving, hauling, and land clearing contractors — anyone who bids building, renovation, or site-work packages for public agencies.
