Frequently asked.

A market-intelligence platform built specifically for construction trade-union locals. Officials enter job information, contractors, personnel and bid data. ODIN turns it into project tracking, a signatory database, a territory map, and analytics on win/loss ratios, Job Recovery Fund allocation, and where work is being won and lost.

No. ODIN is built for every local in the building trades — electrical, ironwork, plumbing and pipefitting, insulators, operators, labourers, roofers, glaziers, bricklayers, sheet metal, all of them. Bid scopes, rates, officials and territories are configured per local, so nothing in the platform is hard-wired to one craft. The founder came up through a sheet metal local and the demo tenant is a sheet metal local, because a demonstration has to be some trade — that is the only reason one appears more than another.

An official enters bid information from a phone or a laptop — no files, no folders, no spreadsheet to maintain. The platform does the aggregation. Leadership opens one screen and sees the jurisdiction. Daily industry reports import in bulk rather than being read by hand.

From your own collective bargaining agreement, not from ours. We take the published journeyman scale, add a 15% burden, and multiply by the hours your officials currently spend on work the platform automates. The calculator on this site does exactly that, in your browser, and prints the arithmetic under the answer. Every figure we quote can be recomputed by anyone holding a public document.

No. It runs entirely in your browser, stores nothing, and transmits nothing. If you want us to see your figures you press the email button, which opens your own mail program with the numbers written out — and you decide whether to send it.

It does not mean the reports stop mattering. It means an official stops spending an hour of every day manually reading and re-keying them. ODIN imports and processes the reports, then surfaces only what has changed and what is worth a call.

The local. Every local's intelligence lives in its own isolated tenant. You control access during and after any engagement, and you can take your data with you. It is not pooled, sold, or shown to another local.

A mandate from leadership that officials will use it, and two hours on Day 0. That is genuinely the list — no IT project, no procurement cycle, no hardware.

Those tools show you where the projects are, or handle your dues and grievances. Useful — and neither one records whether you won the job, what you lost it by, or where your share went. They map the jurisdiction. ODIN keeps the score.

The arithmetic is real and recomputable from a public CBA. The screens and recordings are captured from the live platform running a demo tenant, and the project data inside that tenant is simulated. We label it every time it appears, because a number you cannot check is worth nothing to you.
