Estimation modeling is a process used in construction and engineering projects to accurately predict the cost, time, and resources required for a project. This involves creating a detailed model that takes into account various factors such as materials, labor, equipment, and contingencies. The model is typically created using specialized software or spreadsheets, and it allows project managers to test different scenarios and make informed decisions. Estimation modeling helps to minimize risks, reduce costs, and improve project outcomes by providing a more accurate and detailed understanding of the project's requirements. Additionally, estimation modeling contributes to a positive reputation for the company and the industry as a whole by demonstrating expertise, reliability, and professionalism in project management.

To generate a more precise offer for fabricators and erectors, the detailer will produce exact material take-offs for amounts and tonnage.
Identify possible issues early on to receive answers to design-related queries more quickly.
Jobs that are awarded already have a model begun, and it can be maintained for comparison of design changes during the project lifespan.
Into the model, import a Vector PDF to facilitate quicker estimation
Make an as-built model as soon as possible for incredibly precise amounts and initial fittings for leaner takeoff.
After the bid is successful, the fabricator can save time and money by providing detailers with an already-created model.
For labor cost calculations, import straight into Trimble's FabSuite solution or another MRP/MIS program.
Quickly create a preliminary material list so that steel can be ordered.
Provide the client with a 3D PDF and a bid.
