Description

An all-encompassing estimating solution suitable for any industry. Its adaptable nature stems from a versatile database, allowing users to modify estimate fields and cost basis categories as needed. You can organize your estimate items by various sections or locations, enabling the grouping of related labor and material components. Easily adjust the partitioning and grouping with a simple click of the mouse. Additionally, tailor your own nested sorting preferences for the reports generated from your estimates. You have the flexibility to personalize estimate fields, cost basis categories, and sorting options to meet your specific requirements. The tool also allows for the inclusion of working notes within the estimate and work order documents derived from the estimate. Furthermore, it enables the creation of formal bid and proposal documents, complete with tax calculations, markup, and shipping information, all formatted according to your company's branding or pre-printed templates. Finally, you can conveniently send your bid or proposal documents directly to clients via email through Estimate Master, streamlining the communication process significantly. This tool not only enhances efficiency but also improves accuracy in estimating across various business types.
