Estimation & Project Software for Construction Companies
Contractors and estimators live in spreadsheets: rate sheets, bills of quantities, take-offs and quotes that take days to produce and break when one cell changes. We have built estimation platforms for Tameer Estimations, Author Estimation and Ashlar, and turn that experience into tools that quote faster and track projects without paperwork.

The problems we see in construction & estimation businesses
Quotes take days and still contain errors
Estimators rebuild the same BOQ in Excel for every tender. Rates are copied from old jobs, formulas break, and a single wrong quantity can cost the margin on a whole project.
Rate libraries are scattered and outdated
Material and labour rates live in personal spreadsheets. When supplier prices change, half the team keeps quoting with last year's numbers.
No single view of project cost vs. estimate
Once a job is won, actual costs are tracked in a different file from the estimate. Overruns are discovered at the end, not while they can still be fixed.
Site and office are disconnected
Daily reports, material requests and progress photos arrive over WhatsApp and are re-typed into spreadsheets, if they are recorded at all.

Common questions
Construction & Estimation software FAQs
How much does custom construction estimation software cost?
A quoting and BOQ platform for a single company — rate library, take-off entry, PDF quotes and user accounts — typically costs $2,000 to $6,000 and takes 6 to 10 weeks. Full project cost tracking, site apps and client portals are usually added as later fixed-price phases.
Can you import our existing Excel estimating templates?
Yes. We start every estimation project by auditing your current templates, preserving the calculation logic you trust, and importing your rate libraries and historical quotes so estimators are productive from day one.
Do you build estimation tools for specific trades?
Yes. We have built tools for general contracting, MEP-style trades and finishing works, and the item libraries, units and build-up rules are configured for your trade rather than forced into a generic template.
Can the software work on site with poor connectivity?
Site apps are built to work on phones and tablets with offline entry for daily logs and photos, syncing when a connection returns.
