About ProfitDig
What is ProfitDig?
ProfitDig is cloud-based bidding and job costing software built specifically for excavation, grading, and underground utility contractors.
What ProfitDig does
The platform enables sitework contractors to build bids using units like cubic yards and linear feet with automated calculations for overhead, profit margin, tax, and bond rates. Contractors can upload plan PDFs to draw polygon shapes for area or line runs for pipes, automatically exporting measured quantities into the estimate. It allows users to create reusable material groups, build crew rosters with equipment, and assign acting foremen. Field teams can log labor hours, machine time, daily expenses, weather conditions, safety notes, and photos from phones, tablets, or laptops. ProfitDig updates job cost reports in real time, comparing field expenses against budgeted line items for equipment, labor, materials, and subcontractors. Users can also lock daily entries, collect crew sign-offs, and export signed Site Record PDFs.
Who ProfitDig is for
