Why 850,000+ Contractors choose RedTeam

One platform purpose-built for the complexity of commercial construction,
not retrofitted from a residential or design-first product.

Built-in financial control

Job cost, WIP reporting, contracts, and change orders — native to the platform, not a bolt-on.

Weeks to implement, not months

Get up and running in weeks with guided onboarding — no 6-month rollout or consulting engagements.

Made for commercial GCs

Submittals, RFIs, multi-phase jobs, and compliance. Workflows designed for how commercial contractors actually build.

Predictable pricing

Transparent, predictable costs — not enterprise volume-based pricing that scales against you.

Configurable, not rigid

Adapt workflows to the way your team already works instead of bending your process to the software.

Full-lifecycle visibility

From bid to closeout — estimating, execution, and financials in one place, so nothing slips through the cracks.

RedTeam has completely transformed how we manage our projects.
The visibility into financials alone has saved us thousands.
