The newest product from XBE, Giant Anchor, was recently featured in an article in Rock Products magazine. The intelligent pricing solution helps construction teams turn guesswork into profit by making the bidding process more accurate, collaborative, and reflective.
This is the second article of a three-part series written by XBE VP of Construction Materials Barry Hudson and Giant Anchor General Manager Brittany Blawn.
In Pricing Your Bids in a Smarter Way, the authors explore how companies can go from guessing to anchoring. Giant Anchor captures the instincts of everyone in the room, layers them with what each person knows and notices, and turns that mix into the strongest possible basis for your price.
The article dives into the backbone of the process: the inputs. Because even the best methodology will collapse if the data you feed it is incomplete, biased, or untimely.
Based on Giant Anchor’s tested methodology, the key inputs are The Hold, Three-Point Bearings, Dead Reckoning Index, the Multi-Line Fix and Chart Corrections.
When these inputs are structured, transparent, and tested against reality, they don’t just improve individual bids — they create an organizational muscle for making better, faster, more profitable decisions.
Giant Anchor showcases XBE’s most extensive AI tools to date. It delivers a disciplined, knowledge-compounding, AI-enhanced workflow that anchors the right price before construction begins.
Stay tuned for Part 3 of the series: Hudson and Blawn will turn to pricing Outputs and Outcomes, explaining how disciplined inputs translate into higher win rates, margin lift, and cultural change — and whether anchoring stands up in a downturn.
