Why Contractors Lose Money on Bids
These estimating challenges cost contractors thousands every year. We solve all of them.
Losing Money on Bids
Inaccurate estimates lead to underbidding (losing money) or overbidding (losing the project). Either way, your bottom line suffers.
Missed Deadlines
Manual takeoffs and estimating bottlenecks cause your team to miss bid deadlines, handing opportunities to competitors.
High Overhead Costs
Hiring full-time estimators is expensive. Salaries, benefits, software licenses, and training add up fast, especially for small firms.
