We’ve made it easier for subbies to control their profile contacts and help builders connect with the right people for every tender invitation.
🔧 What’s New?
  • Subbies can now hide contacts that aren’t essential for tendering or procurement (e.g., admin or accounts staff)
  • Hidden contacts won’t appear in builder Address Books, reducing clutter and making it easier to find the right person
  • Set primary contacts so invitations go to the right team members every time
💡
What This Means for You
For Subcontractors
  • Fewer misdirected invites:
    Ensure builders connect with the right team members, improving response times
  • A cleaner, more direct profile:
    Make it easy for builders to find key details fast while keeping your contact list professional and relevant
For Builders
As part of our continuous uplift of the E1 Network, we’re focused on making it easier to find and connect with the right contacts when issuing RFQs, removing the guesswork and ensuring invitations reach the right people. You’ll start to notice the following changes as subbies update primary contacts across their accounts, helping you manage a smarter, more connected Address Book.
  • Less Address Book clutter:
    Only see key and relevant contacts when connecting with new subbies
  • Faster, more effective invites:
    Get your tenders in front of the right people every time
  • Improved response times:
    Fewer misdirected invitations mean quicker replies from the right decision-makers
This update helps everyone save time, reduce confusion, and connect faster - because finding the right contact should be simple and stress-free.

Say Hello to E1!

We’re excited to announce that EstimateOne is now E1!
E1_with_padding
This rebrand represents our commitment to evolving alongside the construction industry, while staying true to our core mission: connecting builders, subcontractors, and suppliers to make tendering smarter and more efficient.
What’s changing?
  • Our name: From EstimateOne to E1
  • Our logo and visual identity
What’s staying the same?
  • The tools and features you rely on every day
  • Our dedication to fostering connections across the construction industry
This rebrand is a new chapter, but our goal remains the same—to strengthen connections and help you work smarter together. Thank you for being part of this journey with us.
We’re proud of our journey so far and can’t wait to continue supporting your success under the E1 banner. Thank you for being part of our story.
Welcome to E1—Connecting the Industry. Building the Future
We’re excited to announce a major improvement to our Connection Suggestions feature, designed to enhance the number of suggestions you'll see when using the feature.
Connecting companies from the E1 Network with those already in your Address Book ensures you always have the most up-to-date information and contacts.
What’s new?
Previously, the Connection Suggestions page may only have returned a few suggestions when searching for potential matches among the top 100 companies in your Address Book, without surfacing less active matches.
With this update, the feature will now actively search for up to 100 matches every time you access Connection Suggestions.
You’ll now consistently see more connection suggestions if they’re available.
If there are 100 potential matches, you’ll see all 100, no more bottlenecks!
This change ensures a smoother, more efficient experience, helping you build connections faster and more effectively.
Try it out and enjoy the improved results!

Project visibility options have been updated on the New Project Wizard. Note that the functionality is the same, however the wording has changed.
E1 Network: Publish as [builder name]
This option will publish your project to the E1 Network with your company name visible to all subcontractors and suppliers with access to E1.
Private: Invite Only
Your project is not discoverable by the E1 Network as it isn't published on the tender noticeboard. Subcontractors and suppliers only gain access to the project details when you send them an invitation.
Screenshot 2024-10-29 at 9
You can change a project from Private to available to the E1 Network at any time via your Project Details.
