The tender went out five weeks ago. It's probably still alive. The estimator who priced it has a feel for it, the relationship sits with someone who's been on site all week, and the last real update was a phone call nobody wrote down.
Multiply that by fourteen live opportunities and you have your forward pipeline: mostly accurate, entirely in people's heads, and impossible to hand to anyone else.
So when the question comes up about whether to put on another crew, or commit to the plant, or keep the estimator you're not quite busy enough to justify, you're deciding on instinct. Sometimes that's right. When it's wrong, it's expensive in both directions.
We architect HubSpot around the full project lifecycle, connecting enquiry, qualification, tender, quoting, handover and ongoing service work in one system your team can actually run.
