Features of our Estimating Software:
No clutter! Seven big buttons divide the program into its seven primary screens:
- Customers Manager (to manage your customer database)
- Project Manager (to create and manage estimates for each project)
- Reports Manager (to produce proposals, cost update reports, and bid requests)
- Parts Tool (to manage your part library database. Completely customizable and easy to use. For real!)
- Templates Tool (to create templates that allow you to estimate speedily)
- Options Tool (to customize the program for your company)
- Update Tool (to automatically update part prices with your region of the United States, every quarter)
Estimate easily – the core of the program
- Add parts one by one, or a bunch at once using templates
- Arrange parts into separate groups using “components”
- Process alternates (a.k.a. ” change orders “) and track how they affect the project’s cost by defining statuses of Accepted , Undecided , or Declined
- Create multiple “projects” for a customer to define different phases . When you generate the proposal you can have each of them displayed individually then show a grand total at the bottom
