Find more opportunities. Win more contracts. Cut the admin.
McGideon installs a complete business development system for construction and building services contractors. RADAR finds the opportunities - public tenders and frameworks, and the private subcontract packages behind every contract award - and our automation engages the people behind them, drafts the bids, and never lets a follow-up slip.
RADAR identifies relevant tenders, frameworks and newly awarded contracts before they're missed - and the subcontract packages every award creates.
Automate follow-ups, reminders and next steps so every worthwhile opportunity keeps moving.
Create stronger bids faster using reusable content, AI-assisted drafting and clearer go/no-go decisions.
See your opportunities, pipeline, bid progress and priorities in one clear system.
Use targeted outreach and credible content to stay in front of the clients and decision-makers that matter.
Automate repetitive work across prospecting, tendering, reporting and handovers.
Most contractors hear about tenders when everyone else does, and hear about awards when the winner's name is in the trade press. RADAR watches both. Live tenders and frameworks across public and social-housing procurement are flagged the moment they appear - and when a main contract is awarded, RADAR follows it: the winner, the packages they're likely to let, and the people worth talking to. Those packages are private opportunities that never appear on any portal, and they're where the least-contested work lives.
Then it does something no alert service does: it feeds every opportunity into your outreach, follow-up and bid engines, so nothing is spotted and then forgotten.
Book a callLive opportunities across public and social-housing procurement, filtered against your trade, geography, contract value and capacity - a shortlist worth your estimator's time.
The winners of main contracts, flagged early - with the subcontract packages they're likely to let and the supply-chain people who'll be letting them. Private work, sourced from public data.
Procurement, preconstruction, estimating and estates contacts mapped account by account - including the ones who aren't on LinkedIn.
Every opportunity feeds straight into engagement, follow-up and bid drafting - so you're in front of the buyer before your competitors know it exists.
We map your sales process, your best clients and where revenue leaks - unfollowed quotes, lapsing contracts, a pipeline that goes quiet when the diary fills up.
RADAR builds your market map: the tenders, project wins, buyers and takeover targets worth pursuing in your sectors and your patch.
Outreach, follow-up and content engines warm every buyer and relationship consistently, in your voice, week after week.
The bid engine turns opportunities into submissions - PQQs, proposals and tender responses.
A live dashboard tracks enquiries, bids submitted, win rates and pipeline won. We review it with you and sharpen the system every month.
“After the initial strategy session with Gavin, it was clear there was real value in continuing to work with him. We've been able to strengthen our business development, improve our marketing and use automation more effectively to win more of the right work.”
“McGideon has given our construction business a clear structure for growth. You've already got what most companies trying to scale don't - proven systems, great technology and a genuine understanding of our business.”
McGideon isn't an agency retainer or a software licence - it's both halves of one system, installed and run for you. Your engagement includes RADAR configured for your sectors and patch, the outreach and follow-up engines running in your name, AI-assisted bid and PQQ drafting built on your content library, and a live dashboard we review with you every month.
There are two ways in. RADAR intelligence on its own - tenders, frameworks, contract awards and the subcontract packages they create, plus the people behind them, delivered as reports and alerts - starts from £495 a month. The full system typically starts from £2,750 a month, scoped to your sectors and patch on the first call. For context: outreach agencies alone charge around £2,800 a month, and a single business development hire costs £5,000–£6,000 a month before they've found their first tender.
No headcount added. No long lock-in. The hard questions - how fast you'll see results, what we can and can't promise - are answered straight in the FAQs.
McGideon was founded by people with experience in the built environment and automation and AI. People who've spent careers understanding business and technology from the inside out. We know the pressures you face. We built McGideon to solve them.
RADAR finds the opportunities, the bid engine delivers first drafts and deadlines, and no follow-up ever slips - so your marketing, bid and account people spend their time where wins actually come from: pricing, technical quality and relationships.
