TRANSITION PERIOD

When your new estimator is being oriented to your company, he or she may be tied up with training and not yet ready to take on the bidding process.

TYPE OF JOB

A project comes up that your company is capable of completing, but your estimating staff might not be confident or have the right experience for that type of work. Please ask us about our specialties in industrial and commercial construction.

SIZE OF JOB

We can take on a large and complex estimate that would tie up your estimator. This expands your estimator’s capabilities to complete additional projects and change order estimates for existing work.
