Whether you’re bidding on a residential, commercial, industrial, or government project, our expert estimators use industry-leading tools like RSMeans, PlanSwift, Bluebeam, and Sage Estimating to deliver fast, reliable, and cost-effective construction estimating and bidding services tailored to your project’s unique scope and requirements.

What is a Bid Preparation Estimate?

A Bid Preparation Estimate is a detailed projection of all costs associated with a construction project. This estimate forms the foundation of your bid and outlines both direct and indirect expenses, helping you present a transparent, professional, and profitable proposal to project owners or general contractors.

Our bid estimates typically include:

  • Material Costs: Quantities and pricing for every construction material

  • Labor Costs: Skilled and unskilled workforce estimation based on scope and timeline

  • Equipment Costs: Required machinery, tools, and usage rates

  • Overhead: Office, insurance, permits, and other indirect costs

  • Profit Margins: Competitive markups that maintain profitability

We use industry-standard estimating tools like RSMeans, PlanSwift, Bluebeam, and Sage Estimating to ensure highly accurate and reliable bid estimates.
