TL:DR – The Bridgit Bench and Airtable integration allows contractors to pull project information from Airtable directly into their workforce intelligence solution. That means key notes and vital project information is automatically synced with Bridgit Bench to optimize your project and resource pipeline.
Airtable is one of the leading project and task tracking tools being used by the construction industry today. Using Airtable, contractors are able to track active projects, upcoming won projects, and projects still in pursuit and estimating. Airtable also helps to track key data points for all projects. It can even be used to track the opportunity win percentage for projects in pursuit.
Airtable is a great tool for contractors looking to track how their projects are progressing from pursuit to completion. However, it becomes exponentially more powerful as a foundational tool if it’s integrated with the existing tools in your tech stack.
Well-integrated systems allow for a seamless flow of data between your construction software and help make data-driven decisions faster. Bridgit Bench, the leading workforce intelligence solution for contractors, understands the importance of automated workflows.

A look at the Bridgit Bench and Airtable integration
The Bridgit Bench and Airtable integration allows contractors to pull project information from Airtable directly into their workforce intelligence solution. That means key notes and vital project information is automatically synced with Bridgit Bench to optimize your project and resource pipeline.
Airtable allows contractors to track current and historical projects, as well as all project bids and pursuits. For example, if you have a project in pursuit and want to understand the impact it will have on your workforce strategy. However, you only want that project data in Bridgit Bench once it’s a 25% likelihood the project will be won.
Bridgit Bench customers can create a custom integration that only pulls project information once an opportunity has reached that 25% mark. You can also leverage the Bridgit Bench and Airtable integration to build more robust project profiles. These profiles help to track any custom data fields relevant to your business. The best part is, you don’t need a development team or API key to connect Airtable. We utilize Bridgit Sync, our automation platform, to do all the heavy lifting for you.
