- Service Overview
Turn Your Numbers Into a Bid You Can Submit
We take your project’s takeoff and cost estimate and organize it into a bid-ready package, formatted the way GCs and owners expect to see it. That means less time reformatting spreadsheets and more time getting bids out the door before the deadline.

How are estimates delivered?
Estimates are delivered as organized Excel workbooks and PDF reports, broken down by trade and CSI division for easy review.
Are project files kept confidential?
Yes. Every plan set and project file is handled under strict confidentiality, and we’re glad to sign an NDA before you share drawings.
