Customizable forward and reverse auction platform designed for procurement leaders, auction houses, and construction pros
OVERVIEW
Construction bidding is the process where contractors, subcontractors, or suppliers submit proposals to win work on a project. It’s a competitive method used by project owners, general contractors, and procurement teams to find the best partner at the right price.
Most often, this is done through a reverse auction platform for construction, where vendors compete to offer the lowest price for materials, services, or subcontracted work. This approach helps reduce procurement costs while increasing transparency and efficiency.
In some cases, construction bidding can also be managed with forward auction software — especially when selling surplus assets such as equipment, tools, or leftover building materials. Here, buyers compete to offer the highest bid, allowing sellers to recover value quickly.
Briskon Auction supports both models in a single, SaaS-based construction bidding platform. Whether you’re sourcing from multiple vendors or selling unused inventory, Briskon provides a modern, secure, and customizable solution for running competitive auctions tailored to your workflow.
WHY USE
Traditional bidding is broken for today’s demands: For decades, the construction industry has relied on manual, fragmented bidding processes, spreadsheets, email chains, and phone calls. While that may have worked once, today it leads to:
These inefficiencies are more than frustrating; they’re expensive. Every missed bid or overpriced contract impacts your margins and project delivery.
Briskon Auction’s construction bidding software brings speed, structure, and strategy to your process. It’s not just a digitized form of traditional bidding, it’s a fundamentally better way to work.
