Bid Board
How to navigate the Bid Board page to manage the projects you and your team are bidding, plus access and follow up on the Bids you have submitted.
Your Bid Board is your central hub for managing every project you're actively pursuing. It keeps all your saved jobs organized, searchable, and easy to assign across your team. With real-time updates and notifications, you’ll never miss changes, deadlines, or key documents—and you can track general contractor activity on your bids directly in PlanHub. It’s built to help you stay in control, move faster, and submit stronger, on-time bids.
Some tools in the Bid board are available at all plan levels, and some tools are only available to Premier Plans.
How to Add Projects to your Bid Board
Step 1: Add a Project to the Bid Board

Step 3: Navigate Bid Board Tabs
Two main tabs keep your work organized: - Bid Pipeline for tracking project stages - Bids for viewing your submitted bids

Step 4: Understand Pipeline Stages
Monitor project progress using preset stages: - Saved - Estimating - Bidding - Submitted - Won - Lost

Step 5: Update Project Stages
Click and hold while you drag a project to a new stage column or use the three-dot icon to update its status.

Step 6: Make Bulk Updates
Select multiple projects—even across stages—for quick updates like assigning, removing, or changing status.

Step 7: View Team Assignments
Hover over your logos icons to see which teammate owns each project.

Step 8: Search and Filter Projects
Use the search bar to quickly locate specific projects by name.

Apply filters by team member, project source, or bid due date, then click Save to apply and update your board’s view.

Step 9: Open Project Details
Click any project name to jump to its detail page.
Return to the Bid Board anytime via the left navigation panel.

Step 10: Import Projects
You can import projects that are not in PlanHub to help keep all your company projects organized. Click on "Import Project".
You must give the project a name and upload at least one file; all other information is optional.

Step 11: Track Submitted Bids
In the Submitted column, use the Track Bid feature to monitor your submitted bids.
Click Track Bid to open the tracking panel displaying trades and amounts you bid, and the activity from the General Contractor.

You should use this to monitor your results to help improve your bidding strategy over time.

Step 12: Update Bid Values
Enter your bid value for any project using Bid Value, and view the grand total for each pipeline stage.

Step 13: Convert Won Projects to the Job Board
If you use the Job Board, move Won projects over by clicking Convert to Job. This action transfers all details and lets you assign team members, set milestones, and attach documents as needed.

Keep everything organized with PlanHub’s Field app, centralizing communication and documentation for every job.

Step 14: Review the Bids Tab
The Bids tab lists every bid submitted by your team, showing the project name, address, due date, and linked documents.
