In Bid Board Pro - Adding in Grouping to the bulk actions drop down list.   Instead of searching for each bid to group together, can the check boxes on the left hand side be used to group projects together?   This would be done by checking the boxes on the left hand side then selecting "Bulk Actions" Then group.   Show More

When a subcontractor sends a message via building connected, the message is received as an email notification inside building connected and it does not specify what bid package they are assigned to. In addition, there is no way to filter by bid packages on the messages. Show More

We encountered unexpected behavior in BuildingConnected while archiving an opportunity. An estimator was reviewing and cleaning up previously accepted opportunities and attempted to archive one specific job that was approximately two weeks old. During this action, a system prompt appeared, and the estimator proceeded under the assumption that only the selected opportunity would be archived. After confirming the action, it became apparent that: Multiple opportunities dated into the following weeks Across multiple offices were archived as part of the same action. These opportunities were not intentionally selected and had to be manually un-archived afterward. Reason for reaching out From the user’s perspective, the archive action appeared to be applied to a single opportunity. The resulting behavior suggests that the archive function may be operating on a broader scope (such as a date range or global filter), but this was not clearly understood at the time of execution. We are looking to understand: Why archiving one opportunity resulted in multiple future opportunities being archived Whether this behavior is expected based on system logic or filtering at the time of action This clarification is important so we can ensure consistent internal workflows and avoid accidental changes during routine opportunity management.

There should be something offered (a discount perhaps) to Project Owners (municipalities, private owners, etc.) to incentivize them to post their solicitations for General Contractor bids on the Building Connected platform. There currently isn't a good single nationally recognized hub in existence where GCs can go to discover a vast array of potential bidding opportunities (whereas Subcontractors who are using Bid Board Pro do have this). From my experience, most GCs are finding their work from a variety of sources (Dodge reports, ISF, PlanHub, ConstructConnect, Demandstar, existing clients, word of mouth, etc.). I think it would be of great benefit to Autodesk and its users if these opportunities could be consolidated under BC Pro and an entire bid process (from Project Owner to Subcontractor) could be handled within the BC Pro platform. When Project Owners create Projects and solicit bids from GCs through Building Connected, the GC would also use Bid Board to submit their bid to the respective client. Show More

In the Bid Form supplier price certain materials and units in containers that are not in the Response Types. Due to this it causes conflictions to our Accounting Team and the Supplier's Estimating and Accounting Team when pricing a job. Can there be a function that allows the building connecting host to add additional response types? Show More

Idea Summary: As a large industrial painting contractor (FD Thomas), we often receive a high volume of painting bid invitations nationwide through Autodesk Construction Cloud and BuildingConnected. While we want to continue seeing large-scale industrial painting opportunities—such as infrastructure, manufacturing, or energy-related projects—we frequently receive invitations for commercial retail projects (e.g., Tractor Supply, Walmart, 24 Hour Fitness, AutoZone), which fall outside of our target market. Proposed Solution: We would like to request a filtering or categorization enhancement that allows us to distinguish industrial painting from commercial painting within the platform. This could be achieved through: A scope tag refinement (e.g., “Industrial Painting” vs. “Commercial Painting”) Trade classification subcategories Custom filtering options on the Bid Board or within project tags Benefit: This change would significantly improve the relevance of the opportunities we see, reduce bid board clutter, and help national contractors like us focus on scopes that align with our capabilities and interests. Thank you for considering this refinement to support the efficiency of large-scale specialty contractors. Best regards, Show More

Hello, my company performs a specialized task that does no appear in your list of tasks under the work performed section. I have been receiving requests and am not sure if they are really asking for our services or not as the only 2 tasks that I could select that would be relevant to us is Consultant and Inspections. Our company provides Accessibility Consulting services, which includes plan reviews and construction walks for compliance with applicable accessibility requirements, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). It would be great if we could have either Accessibility Consulting or ADA Consulting added, as that would help us direct our services to those who really need it. Thank you for your assistance!

I would like to be able to view uploaded proposals from within the bid leveling tab; currently when you click "View Proposal" it downloads the file, but when you click "Create Revision" it does provide a file viewer within the tab. This view window should be present when clicking "View Proposal" as that makes more sense. Additionally, I would like to be able to message subcontractors directly from the Bid Leveling tab; clicking the dropdown should give a "Message" option so that I can give feedback on the bid submission while viewing all the bids at once.

Regarding the recent update that altered the layout of a specific bid package, the page that displays the list of subcontractors and their bid status. The latest update introduced the Tradeapp qualification, listing that status next to each subcontractor's name in lieu of project specific notes.   While I appreciate the efforts to keep everything organized and streamlined, I believe it would be more beneficial to include these project-specific notes in the list rather than the qualification status. These notes could offer more context and relevant information directly related to our project, which I think would be incredibly useful.       Show More

Good morning.  I had put in a trouble ticket regarding work codes and they indicated that I needed to reach out here to get our problem potentially resolved.     We are a geotechnical specialty drilling company that performs micropile, anchor, tieback and pressure grouting work.  There is not a code of this specific work.  We have picked the code for drilling and shoring but we are not getting invites for the type of work we have listed.  Is there any way you can put a code for these?  I have spoken to a couple GCs that sent us requests for the codes we have picked even though they really don't apply to our type of drilling and they too agree there is no code specific to us and they would be helpful.   Thank you so much.

Current BuildingConnected (BC) Functionality: Each BC, BidBoard (BB) Company must be a separate entity. Domain name and email addresses cannot be duplicated between companies. This functionality keeps each company secure and protects their Intellectual Property. Opportunity for New Functionality Example:  Situation: Company A has a paper subsidiary or paper sister company, Company B. Company B exists in name only for accounting structure purposes. Company B has no employees. Company A is set-up in BuildingConnected, can be pre-qualified by General Contractors (GC) in TradeTapp (TT), and receive bid requests in BB. Company A's sales department can review and act on these within BuildingConnected. Company A wants to set-up Company B in BC-BB to be pre-qualified by GC's in TT and receive bid from GC's in BB. Company A employees need to see all of the information for both Company A and Company B. Difficulty: Company A employees cannot do this with the same email addresses. Company A must create a new domain, new infrastructure, duplicate BC-BB Offices, new emails, etc. for the same employees. When Company A employees want to review pre-qual. and bid requests in BC-BB/TT for Company B , they must logout of Company A and use their Company B credentials to log-in to BC-BB/TT. This duplication of infrastructure is not only cost prohibitive but is also inefficient for employees as they have to merge both data sets into a single set of orders for Manufacturing. New Functionality Idea: Allow companies to set-up another affiliated BC company with the same BC Office structure and employees as their original company. Allow company employees to review all TT pre-qual. requests and BB bid requests from both companies in the same BC queues. Show More

The current framework of the BuildingConnected site does not differentiate any permissions levels between users, which gives any single member of a company profile free reign to make changes to office locations, services offered, etc. Putting it bluntly, this creates an unmanaged and disorganized free-for-all.   In the specific case of my company, we maintain separate company profiles for our various regional brand identities. Without any restriction on editing permissions, users have created duplicate/overlapping offices and service areas between company profiles that create confusion for our end customers/GCs. Show More

After creating all my bid packages as the GC, I often find that the a contractor will be attached to multiple bid packages. When I create a note for that contractor it updates on all bid packages they are connected to, but when I change the status to bidding or not bidding, it only changes the status on that one bid package. Which means I have to go through multiple trades in order to make sure that single contractor connected to multiple bid packages is marked as not bidding or bidding across the board.   Contractors will often times state they are bidding one package and not another, so a setting giving the GC the option to allow bidding status' to update through all bid packages would allow ease of use for GC in both situations.

Only Bid Admins are able to unseal bids.  BuildingConnected requires the existing Bid Admin to appoint a new Bid Admin.  BC Customer Support does not have the ability to change Bid Admin.    Our Bid Admin was out of the office during a scheduled bid opening.  Our team was forced to push the bid opening for lack of ability to update Bid Admin and unseal bids.  Our team recommends Autodesk/ACC/BuildingConnected add ability for team members to change Bid Admin.  Show More

The Bid Leveling tool currently does not have any way to assign a "review" status to bids that are submitted.  In other words, if a vendor submits a bid there is no way to tell if someone on our team has actually reviewed that bid without running some kind of external tracking sheet.  This status tracking is an important part of the bid management workflow and would ideally be handled within BC.  This could be accomplished within Building Connected with adding these status options to the drop down menu next to each bidder's company name in the bid leveling tab: Bid Submitted - Not Reviewed (this would be the default status when a bid is submitted) Bid Submitted - Leveling In Progress Bid Submitted - Leveling Complete Additionally, adding the stats for each of the bid review statuses above to the bid packages summary page (next to the number of bids submitted for each package) would be a great feature.

We would like to see an exportable report that includes a list of all bids submitted on a project with the leveled / "with plugs" bid amount shown.  Currently we can only get a list showing all of the leveled "soft-awarded" bids but not the rest of the bids received.  There is an also a way to export a list showing all bidders but it only shows the initially submitted bid amount and not the leveled bid amount.
