Description

Estimating Link is a complete bidding and estimating software. It can be used for lump sum and unit price bidding. It is ideal for users who need an efficient and fast way to bid heavy highway, environmental and bridges projects. Estimating Link consists of three components that work together to make it easier to develop winning proposals. You can store and reuse estimates, items rates, crews, crews, crews, templates, catalogs vendors, customers, etc. Reuse task data from one job to another and scale it. The quantity of work will adjust, and the labor and equipment costs will automatically increase according to the time required. Small jobs can be assembled quickly without the need for special setup. You can use bid items from other jobs and print the proposal. You can enter bid prices manually without having to do any cost workups. A small job can be bid in minutes.

Description

PreConstruct AI is an online application designed for construction takeoff and estimating, catering specifically to subcontractors engaged in bidding for interior finishes, concrete, and wood framing projects based on PDF drawing sets. It efficiently interprets drawing scales and utilizes plan notes, schedules, and partition legends to assist in pinpointing and measuring quantities for walls, ceilings, and concrete. Currently in beta, the AI-driven wall suggestions are subject to review and modification by the estimator before final approval. Once quantities are sanctioned, they are transformed into detailed material lists that include items such as studs, boards, insulation, tape, compound, paint, concrete, and rebar, complete with calculations and references to the relevant drawing sheets. Estimators have the flexibility to input their own material prices, generate proposal PDFs, and export the data into Excel or CSV formats. Additionally, the application accommodates projects using imperial, metric, or mixed units. It also streamlines estimating workflows, allowing estimators to meticulously review measurements and quantities prior to bid submission, ensuring accuracy and completeness in their proposals. This functionality supports a broader range of project requirements, enhancing the overall efficiency of the estimating process.
