Bedrock finds the work, digests the plans, and chases the quotes for exactly one sitework company per state. Virginia is open.
Virginia sitework firms are running estimator openings for months at a time, because the person who finds the bids, digests the plans, and chases the vendor quotes is the hardest seat in the industry to fill. Bedrock delivers the desk share of that job, remotely, every week. Your senior people keep the site visits and the final number.

Fit grades are scored against a client profile (bonding line, radius, crew capacity). Sources this week: eVA (136 open construction solicitations statewide), VDOT CABB letting board, Loudoun, Henrico, and Richmond procurement portals, regional water authorities. In your packet, grades are tuned to your firm in week one.
Illustrative scoring shown against a sample client profile (mid-size sitework contractor, Fredericksburg radius). Your brief is scored against your real bonding line, crew calendar, and bid history, integrated in week one.
The geotech report is the most important document in the package and the one most skimmed. Our digest reads the boring logs first. Quantity takeoffs are produced per engagement, aligned to your bid schedule line items.

before you ever call us
Bedrock is already tracking Virginia's public layer: eVA, VDOT lettings, county procurement portals, water authorities, and the DEQ permit feed. The sample packet above is the proof. Everything in it is verifiable at the source.
onboarding, week one
You forward your invitation-to-bid inbox, share plan-room access, bid history, and your vendor list. From that week the desk sees everything you see, plus everything public you don't.
exclusively, in your region
One client per state. Your packet compounds: your bonding line, your radius, your unit costs, your vendors. A desk that knows your business this well is not something we can offer your competitor. So we won't.
The offer
The desk only works if it's yours alone. When a company claims its state, we stop taking calls from its competitors. Growth for us means new states, never a second client in yours.
OPEN, taking claims
Full corridor coverage today: Fredericksburg, Richmond, Northern Virginia, Hampton Roads.

Public-layer mapping begins once Virginia is claimed.

What it costs: less than the loaded cost of the estimator seat you're advertising for, on a monthly engagement with a paid pilot first. Exact terms depend on your bid volume and territory. We'll put a number on the table in the first conversation.
Because the seat has been empty for months and the work is piling up on your senior people. The desk handles the hours of hunting, reading, and chasing. Every judgment call, and every number, stays in your shop. You can stop any month; your data comes with you.
They stay yours. We work inside your systems and your domain where possible, and everything we build from your data is deliverable back to you. Exclusivity cuts both ways: we never carry your information to a competitor, because we never work for one.
Yes. The public layer is how we prove ourselves before you sign. After week-one onboarding, your invitation-to-bid inbox and plan-room feeds flow into the same desk, so private work gets the same digestion, briefs, and quote chasing as public work.
Areas, lengths, and counts, yes, aligned to your bid schedule. Full 3D cut-and-fill models are produced with specialist earthwork partners inside your packet while we build that capability in-house, and we'll always tell you which is which. We'd rather be honest about this than impressive.
Bedrock is an independent Virginia-focused desk, built by an operator who uses AI tooling to do the reading, watching, and chasing at a pace one hire never could. The first conversation is a walkthrough of a real packet for your territory, so you can judge the work, not the pitch.
A paid pilot: week one is onboarding and data integration, then weekly packets on live opportunities in your territory. At the end of the month you'll have real briefs on real bids and can decide with evidence. If it's not working, you keep the packets and we part cleanly.
The first conversation is a walkthrough of a sample packet built for your territory. If the fit isn't there, you'll still leave knowing exactly what's bidding in your counties this month.
