Create bid and pre-bid calendar events from new projects

Automatically watch for new project created events in Procore across Procore and Zapier Tables. Create estimating records and calendar events for bid and pre-bid dates so your team can invite the right estimator and track bids without manual coordination.

How this automation schedules bid events for the team

When new projects enter estimating without calendar setup, bid timelines slip and invites get missed. This automation captures project fields and filters qualifying work, then creates estimating records, finds estimator contacts, and schedules Outlook bid and pre-bid events—so your team can respond on time.

    Integrate Procore and project data tools to capture project fields for estimating, mapping project name and address into automation.
