What you do today
Keep how you bid. Hedjee covers the fuel.
Padding the bid
A fuel cushion makes your number higher. Sharper bids win the job.
Escalation clauses
Many jobs don’t have one. When they do, the owner pays more and it comes late.
Eating the overrun
Diesel jumps mid-project and it comes straight out of your margin.
+ Hedjee
Pays you when diesel jumps, so the fuel line holds. You bid tighter, and the owner gets a price that won’t creep.
The March 2026 spike, replayed
Diesel jumped $1.29. You’d get it back.


Hedjee pays the difference. After Apr 2, Hedjee pays you $1.29 on each protected gallon.

Questions
What contractors ask
Can this replace my fuel contingency?
That’s the idea. A small, known fee replaces a guess, and Hedjee pays you if diesel jumps.
What if the job starts late or I don’t win?
We set the protected months around your expected schedule and talk through what happens if dates move.
Does the project owner need to be involved?
No. Protection is between you and Hedjee; your contract and invoices stay the same.
