Introduction Bid Express: New Roads
Bid Express: New Roads is the collective name of a series of major updates we will be rolling out to Bid Express at Bidx.com over the next several years. The goal of these updates is simple: make it easier for contractors to find work. We’re not changing the core of our service or functionality - think of it more like a lane expansion or repaving project. Though these changes will ultimately be around to stay, users will have ample opportunity to opt in, test new features, and provide feedback to shape our New Roads journey.
Modernized Layout and Minor Changes
In order to support other enhancements, we’ve created a new login page for Bid Express. Once logged in, you will notice the option to opt in to the new look - you will be able to revert at any time.
The Lettings Page
We’ve redesigned the Lettings page and introduced a quick search and advanced filter. These new features enable contractors to search through descriptions, item information, and location to find new opportunities.
The Proposal Page
The new Proposals page simplifies the process of accessing files, resources, plans, and additional information about lettings by adding easy-access tabs to the top of the page. Everything you are used to grabbing is still available on the right-hand side of the page.
Store your preferences to help better identify opportunities of interest. Workspace is your personalized dashboard for all the information you care about. If you want to follow specific agencies or proposals, you can do so in Workspace. New lettings will populate in the calendar, so you can always be ready for what’s coming down the pipe. Build your Workspace dashboard for an instant look at your current and upcoming bidding activities.
New Roads adds the ability to “favorite” the agencies you work with the most frequently. When these agencies schedule a Letting, it will appear on the calendar in your Workspace! Follow your favorite agencies to avoid missing opportunities and prepare for future work.
