PRINTQUOTE 4 facilitates the rapid generation of quotations by storing a database of all cost elements, labor, overhead, markups, etc. from which an estimator selects the components needed for the particular job. The database also stores standard combinations of components previously set up by estimators so the combinations can be quickly added to the quotation, avoiding the need to pick the individual items repetitively for each quotation. The database is accessible over a network so many estimators can work concurrently on their own quotations. This approach is adaptable to many other industries.
