Know who else is bidding, before you spend the estimating hours.
A job with two firms on it and a job with twenty are different decisions — but the estimating costs the same either way. State DOTs publish exactly who has requested the plans, on the lettings that have not happened yet. It arrives as a 500-page PDF nobody reads in time. We turn it into an alert you can act on.
A sample report for the contracts you care about. No card, no trial clock.
Live right now — who has already picked up the plans
These lettings have not happened yet. Every firm counted here has already asked NYSDOT for the plans. The number climbs daily. Snapshot from the NYSDOT list published 10/16/2026.
