The iBidElectric Podcast is built for electrical contractors, estimators, and project managers who want to bid smarter, win better work, and protect their margins. Each episode delivers clear, practical guidance drawn from real-world electrical construction experience—not theory, not fluff.
Hosted by industry professionals with decades in the field, the podcast breaks down the art and science of electrical estimating in a way that is easy to understand and immediately useful. Topics include takeoffs, labor units, material pricing, risk management, design-build estimating, change orders, value engineering, and how estimating decisions impact project profitability long after the bid is submitted.
You will also hear honest discussions about common estimating mistakes, how to avoid underbidding, and how to build repeatable systems that lead to consistent results. Whether you are estimating small commercial jobs, large institutional projects, or design-build work, the iBidElectric Podcast helps you think like a business owner—not just a bidder.
This podcast is ideal for contractors who want to move from “winning jobs” to winning profitable projects. If your goal is better bids, fewer surprises, and stronger financial outcomes, this show is designed for you.

How to Become an Electrical Estimator with a Construction Management Degree
A construction management degree gives graduates a broad understanding of how projects are planned, priced, and built. But many graduates are unsure how to translate that degree into a specific role—especially one that offers long-term stability, strong compensation, and professional growth. Electrical estimating is one of the most direct and rewarding paths available, yet it is rarely explained clearly in college programs.
This article explains how construction management graduates can intentionally position themselves to become electrical estimators and avoid the trial-and-error path that slows many early careers.
