Q-1048 · branded PDF readyWhy it wins
Before a CRM can track the deal, someone has to find it, read it, quote it, and chase it.
FortressQuote does the upstream work your spreadsheet and CRM never touch: bid discovery, document review, fit scoring, quote generation, contact capture, phone follow-up, and progress tracking in one system.
Workflow
Every step between opportunity found and quote won
FortressQuote turns the messy front end of bidding into one visible operating timeline: discover, qualify, quote, call, follow up, and close the loop.

Texas-first sources + contacts
Connect the bid boards your team checks, then enrich every opportunity with people to call
Start in Texas with Amtek, CivCast, TxDOT lettings, city bid boards, and FortressQuote market data. FortressQuote is built to pull in the opportunity data and documents your account can access, then use its contact graph to turn good-fit work into a call-ready quote pipeline.
Connect your Amtek account
Pull in the Amtek projects, bid documents, updates, and account-accessible bid data your team would otherwise check manually.
Connect your CivCast account
Bring CivCast opportunities, project documents, followed work, and plan-holder context into the same quote-ready pipeline.
Start with Texas lettings and city boards
Use TxDOT lettings and municipal bid boards to find public work, benchmark opportunity size, and prioritize the jobs worth quoting.
Build the call list from market evidence
Use contacts from bid activity, plan holders, public registries, prequalified contractors, and supplier directories to find phone numbers, emails, and source evidence.
Texas comes first. The same source-ingestion pattern can add more bid boards, agency portals, public registries, plan-holder lists, and contact sources market by market as coverage expands.
Quote builder
Not a template. A controlled quote-building system.
FortressQuote turns the fit evidence into an editable quote: suggested scope lines from the bid docs, your price book, freight logic, margin guardrails, terms, rep info, branded PDF, and send-ready email.

First qualified quote out
Speed matters, but blind speed creates junk quotes. FortressQuote filters for fit first, then helps your team get a credible number out quickly.
Contact lists from market evidence
Bidder, plan-holder, public registry, and supplier-directory records become call-ready contacts: who to quote, who to call, phone numbers, email context, source evidence, and last-touch history.
Bid-doc intelligence layer
Specs, plans, addenda, bid tabs, and quantity clues are parsed into why-this-fits evidence so estimators can trust the shortlist.
A pipeline your sales meeting runs on
Track each opportunity from found to qualified, quoted, called, followed up, awarded, lost, or no-bid — with the next action visible.
Your price book and quoting logic
Unit prices, freight rules, quote presets, terms, and previous pricing turn fit into a quote without rebuilding spreadsheet formulas.
Prime and GC relationship memory
See what you quoted each prime, who responded, who awarded, and who needs a call before the next letting closes.
