Greater accuracy with less effort
Building an accurate, professional estimate has never been faster - even for complex jobs involving dozens of subtrades. Design using the integrated Explorer CADD module, then do price takeoffs directly from the 2-D or 3-D CADD drawings. Instantly add or remove parts and assemblies for easier comparisons. Pull up to date cost data from such industry standard databases as R.S. Means Cost Data, Richardson Engineering Services, ALPRISER and Trade Services. Explorer TrackPoint's pre-compiled cost databases get your estimate started immediately, with item lists, pre-built formulas, assemblies and headings.
Multiple user system lets your estimating team work together
With Explorer TrackPoint, everyone can work on the same database - even the same screen - simultaneously. Everyone can input and edit their information at the same time. Subtrade quotes are quickly compared - the built-in intelligence of the Bid Target option stacks up the various factors and instantly determines the low bid.
Work breakdown structures add flexibility
Once the estimate is prepared, use the Work Breakdown Structure to view or print the estimate in the order, and with the level of detail, that you require. There are ten categories, each with an unlimited number of codes.
Include graphics and photos in your estimate
For a professional touch, you can even embed photographs or CADD drawings in reports.
