Our quick estimating program is the easiest, fastest and most reliable construction estimating program on the market today. Even expensive programs, that cost hundreds of dollars, are not half as flexible and definitely not as easy to use as our simple estimate spread sheet. And the expensive estimating programs are a lot less accurate. Just enter in your job details. We have sections for job materials, labor, and extra expenses that are separated on our form for easy entry. Call suppliers for current market prices then enter this current information into the unit price column. Our estimate form starts calculating the bottom line instantly. You can even save sales tax, employee benefits, overhead, profits and commissions. What if a customer asks to bid a more expensive product for a comparison price? Just copy your original bid, and change the necessary line items on the saved copy. Comparison quotes take less than a minute and you have a record of both prices. Comparative prices and changes are as easy as changing a line item. Our Quick Estimate Sheet changes the bottom line at the speed of light. If you have ever used one of the more expensive estimating programs, you know that the time it takes to keep the data in the program current makes the whole process useless in real life. Prices for job materials, and labor change by the day, by the job, or by job size. With our Quick Estimate Sheet the changes are extremely easy to enter "On the Fly". Save the last estimate to make future estimates easier. If you are like me, many of the jobs I bid have details that are used over and over again. Past estimates help make future estimates easier. Sales tax, Employee Benefits, Overhead, Profit and Commissions are almost always the same from job to job. Our Quick Estimate Sheet makes it easy to compare past estimates in order to make the next estimate easier. It is also nice to file your estimates so you can get up to speed on old clients you thought you lost, but didn't. Ever have a customer call you back a year or two later? If you need to "sharpen your pencil" on a job it's a snap to enter new overhead, profit or commission percentages for competitive comparisons. It is no longer necessary to make a guess at what your actual mark-up is on your jobs because our Quick Estimate Sheet calculates new mark ups as you change data. Quick Estimate runs on Microsoft Excel 2000. You must have this program to run Quick Estimate. Just put the floppy disc in your ":A" drive and open the program in Excel. Give our Quick Estimate Sheet a try. |
