Protect the margin. Win the bid.
You don't lose jobs to the competition — you lose them to a 2% estimating error and a schedule nobody caught slipping until it was three weeks gone. Every thin bid, every change order that never gets signed, every float that vanishes before anyone flags it is profit walking off the site. RIG puts governed AI where it protects margin — and only where your crews will actually use it on Monday morning.
02 · how you make money
Three places the money actually moves.
An AI check on every estimate before it goes out — historical-cost deviation, scope gaps, margin floor. A small miss on a fixed-price job no longer swallows the whole profit.
Scope creep gets caught and routed to a signed CO instead of disappearing. Work that used to get done and never billed turns back into revenue.
Float-burn and schedule-risk signals reach the PM by text — not a dashboard nobody opens. You catch the slip before liquidated damages and overtime catch you.
We don't hand you a pilot and leave. The system gets built out job over job — more of your estimating and field ops governed, each PM running more jobs with the same crew, a moat your competitors can't copy fast.
03 · the play
Same sequence, every time.
No science project. The exact audit → ship → install sequence that protects bid margin across a mid-market contractor's last 20 jobs.
Audit
We map the margin leaks across your last 20 jobs — where AI protects profit and where it's just noise. A scored opportunity list, signed off — not a slide deck.
Ship one engine
One governed engine — bid guard on every estimate, or schedule-slip signals to the PM — live in production in 90 days, measured against a real job, not a demo.
Install the discipline
Governance, the operating model, and the field training stay behind — so the gains hold, the crews keep using it, and the next engine ships faster.
04 · the receipt
One estimating line, rebuilt as a guardrail.

Let's find your margin leak.
Tell me what you build and where the margin's leaking — thin bids, change orders, schedule slips. It goes straight to my inbox and I answer it — no funnel, no scheduling links.
