About Us

From a father's innovation to transforming construction estimation

Origin Story

In the heart of every great solution lies a real problem waiting to be solved.

For BidBow, it began with a construction engineer who, frustrated with inefficient estimation processes and lack of adequate solutions, taught himself to code and built his own solution. This engineer's determination to solve real-world challenges would later inspire something much bigger.

His daughter Hadeel witnessed firsthand how this solution transformed not just his work, but his entire life - bringing efficiency, accuracy, and precious time back to his days. When he shared his solution with his industry peers, the impact was powerful. This wasn't just about making one engineer's life better - it was about solving a problem that had been holding back the entire industry. This real-world impact sparked Hadeel's interest in technology, not from a purely technical standpoint, but from seeing its power to improve people's lives.

Vision Meets Opportunity

Hadeel went on to specialize in software and spend 15 years building her career at multinational software corporations and startups. The more she grew in her career, the more she recognized the exceptional value in her father's creation and the potential impact of channeling her growing experience toward it. This realization led her to start BidBow, with a vision to evolve this battle-tested solution into something greater.

The missing piece fell into place when Hadeel met Ashwin, a talented technical leader searching for a problem with clarity, impact, and proven traction. Together, they transformed the original desktop application into a sophisticated cloud platform, combining decades of industry experience with modern technology.

Today, BidBow stands as a testament to the power of purpose-driven innovation. But our greatest reward? Hearing our customers tell us they "sleep better at night," "get home early to their families," and "come to work with smiles on their faces."

The Name

It's called BidBow because, just like a bow, our platform is fast, accurate, and flexible - exactly what you need in the bidding process. Also like a bow, the platform is intuitive to use, helping you tackle estimation with ease.

BidBow isn't just software - it's a solution born from real experience, refined through decades of industry knowledge, and designed to give construction professionals both their time back and the confidence to bid projects at the right price - competitive enough to win, profitable enough to succeed.
