ProfitDig
Bidding and job costing software built for excavation, grading, and underground utility contractors.
About ProfitDig
ProfitDig is a construction estimating and job-costing platform built specifically for excavation, grading, and underground utility contractors. General construction software often focuses on commercial builders, forcing earthmoving contractors to adapt awkward formulas or rely on brittle spreadsheets. ProfitDig solves this problem by structuring estimates around practical dirt work units such as cubic yards, linear feet, and equipment operating hours.
The platform enables estimators to assemble accurate bids by combining labor rates, machine costs, material allowances, and subcontractor expenses. As project bids develop, the software calculates break-even margins and profit targets automatically. Users can generate professional proposals for clients, submit itemized tenders, and reuse cost assemblies across future bidding opportunities.
Once a job is awarded, project managers can track real-time field performance against the original estimate. Field superintendents can use mobile devices to log daily site conditions, weather events, crew hours, and material deliveries. By comparing active field expenditures against planned cost milestones, contractors can detect cost overruns early and protect job profitability.
ProfitDig operates on a flat-rate monthly subscription of $149 with no contracts, user seat penalties, or per-project limits. Subscriptions include unlimited projects, bids, and daily field logs, supported by a thirty-day money-back guarantee. It provides an efficient and specialized operational tool for site contractors looking to modernize bid management.
