Invitations arrive from BuildingConnected, iSqFt and a hundred email threads. Preconstruction prices what it can reach, most of it is lost, and the reason is written down nowhere. Estimating is the most expensive business development function in the company and the only one nobody measures. PreconstructionBidsBacklogChange orders The problem ## The job was won at *preconstruction.* By the time a project goes out to bid, the contractor who spent six months with the owner and the architect has already shaped the scope. Everybody else is pricing somebody else's drawing. Those six months are the real sales cycle, and they are almost never in a system — they are in a business development lead's calendar and a preconstruction manager's inbox. ## Backlog is what you sold *last* year. Construction — pursuit and backlog What we build ## A pursuit that starts before the drawings. ### Pursuits tracked from the rumour Owners, developers, architects and program managers followed from the moment a project is spoken about: funding status, delivery method, estimated value, and the go or no-go decision recorded with the person who made it and the reason they gave. ### Bid invitations, triaged Invitations from BuildingConnected, iSqFt and email pulled into one queue, matched to the project and the relationship behind it, and scored against what you actually win. Estimating hours then go to the bids you have a reason to take. ### A hit rate that means something Win rate by owner, architect, delivery method, project type and estimator, with reason-lost captured at the bid rather than remembered at the debrief. The pattern inside what you lose is the cheapest business development a contractor owns. ### Prequalification before it lapses Bonding capacity, insurance certificates, safety statistics, trade licences and owner-specific packets held with their expiry dates, so a prequal is assembled from a record instead of chased across three departments the week it is due. ### Backlog joined to the pipeline Awarded value, expected start, duration and burn read from Procore, Sage 300 CRE or Viewpoint, so the revenue picture eighteen months out is a report someone runs rather than a workshop someone books. ### The subcontractor view For specialty trades, the same pipeline pointed the other way: which general contractors invite you, which ones you convert, and where your bid volume has quietly concentrated into two customers. How it runs ## One pursuit, walked end to end. 01 ### Walk one pursuit A single project traced from rumour to award with the business development lead, the estimator and the project executive in the same room, disagreeing in front of us about when it became real. 02 ### Define a pursuit When it starts, when it is dead, and what a go decision requires. Written before anything is built, because a pipeline whose stages nobody agreed on is a pipeline nobody will defend. 03 ### Build the queue and the backlog Invitation triage and hit-rate reporting first, since they change next month's estimating hours. The project-system integration and backlog reporting second. 04 ### Hand it to preconstruction The department that lives in it owns it, with the reporting the Monday go/no-go meeting is actually run from — not a dashboard built for a quarterly board slide. Where it usually breaks ## The go decision was never *written* down. Somebody decides on a Tuesday that the firm is chasing a ninety-million-dollar hospital in a market it has never built in, and eleven weeks of estimating disappear into it. There is no record of who decided, on what basis, or what the firm concluded the last three times it tried that market. A go decision with an owner, a date and three sentences of reasoning is what turns a habit into something a company can get better at.
