SmartBidNet Construction Bid Software Enters Partnership with Virtual Plan Room Network
College Station, Texas (PRWEB) May 17, 2016 -- JBKnowledge and the Virtual Plan Room Network (VPRN) have entered into a partnership to help contractors find, publish and bid more construction projects. As the preferred bid management software for the VPRN, SmartBidNet, a product of JBKnowledge, will help general contractors integrate project news and bidding through this two-way integration.
The Virtual Plan Room Network is a collaboration of builders’ exchanges that provide online plan distribution, construction news, and competitive bid reporting services for local contractors.
By taking advantage of this integration, SmartBidNet’s general contractor users can seamlessly push public projects to their local Builders Exchange for improved bid coverage and subcontractor selection. SmartBidNet users will also be able to search VPRN’s project list from within SmartBidNet, and have one click access to view project information (if they are a VPRN member) or purchase individual project access.
In addition, those who are paid VPRN subscribers, or have purchased a project, now have the ability to export project information from VPRN into SmartBidNet with one click for private bidding.
“Over the years, our users have requested more project news and broader forums to publish their public projects. The Virtual Plan Room Network is the best platform we’ve encountered for those tools so we are excited to share their capabilities with our users,” stated JBKnowledge CEO, James Benham.
