Softhouse & ReBid – AI Simplifying Procurement Processes in the Construction Industry
Together with ReBid, Softhouse helped develop an initial MVP of an AI-driven platform that enables construction companies to identify and match relevant procurement opportunities faster, interpret complex documentation, and prioritize the right business opportunities.
About the Customer
ReBid is a startup company that has quickly established itself in the market. With experience in both construction and digitalization, they develop AI-powered solutions that simplify procurement processes and help companies make better decisions throughout the bidding process.
Challenge
Procurement processes within the construction industry are often extensive, complex, and highly information-driven, making it difficult and time-consuming to quickly determine which opportunities are worth pursuing. ReBid identified a clear need to use AI to create a smarter first-level analysis where large amounts of information can be processed faster, more structurally, and with greater precision.
Solution
ReBid chose to partner with Softhouse based on its expertise in software development and AI to develop an initial MVP focused on usability, scalability, and business value.
“The most important thing for us was finding a partner capable of building a platform that is scalable, secure, and innovative — allowing us to continue developing it ourselves,” says founder Håkan Hagerum.
Together, ReBid and Softhouse rapidly transformed business needs into an innovative AI solution, with continuous feedback and a strong focus on customer value throughout the process.
Results
The collaboration resulted in an initial version that immediately attracted customers interested in testing and helping shape the future development of ReBid. The solution provides construction companies with smarter, more data-driven decision support early in the procurement process, making it easier to focus on relevant business opportunities and use time more efficiently.
The Collaboration
The project was characterized by strong customer focus, structured collaboration, and a shared ambition to quickly transform ideas, technology, and AI into tangible customer value.
