Getting Started

PlanHub is the ideal project and bid management app for general contractors and subcontractors. This software is nationwide, meaning that a small construction team or vast conglomerate can easily use the app for any type of project.

PlanHub currently services all of the United States.

PlanHub is a cloud-based software and can be accessed from anywhere with an internet connection. This means all information is accessible from anywhere for your convenience. At PlanHub, we pride ourselves on the accessibility of our bid construction software.

PlanHub is explicitly designed for small and medium-sized construction professionals to easily learn to use our software. At PlanHub, we understand that general contractors and subcontractors need an easy-to-use bid management software so they can post and bid on construction projects as quickly as possible across the US.

Subcontractors

There are also many public and government projects available including schools, fire stations, parks, police stations, and libraries.
