Estimating Principles and Application
8
hours
Great Estimators know that
to be competitive and competent in the current market, their companies must
continually be in search of an edge. “How can we approach this project
differently than our competition?” This virtual interactive training workshop
is scheduled in two half-day sessions.
Track 1 - The Estimating
Principles Behind Every Bid:
This open forum discussion
led by a panel of experienced construction estimators explores advanced
elements of construction estimating. Experienced estimators will be challenged
to evaluate their own systems within the framework of current trends and models
with an emphasis on Bluebeam. Every topic will be discussed from various
perspectives to allow Estimators from across the spectrum to benefit.
Learning Objectives:
- Cost/Price
analysis

project constraints
- How
to build flexibility into your system
- Optimum
time to complete
- Escalation
- Managing
risk within the estimate
Track 2 - How Technology Can
Produce Faster, More Accurate Estimates:
Oftentimes simply being more
visual in your bid scope can put you ahead of the competition by showing you
truly understand the project. Each day we’ll spend some time demonstrating how
technology can not only replace your highlighters, scales, and calculator, but fluid
company standards for you and your team. With an emphasis on Bluebeam Revu,
these digital tools and workflows will produce clear, visual markups that are
accurate, predictable, and consistent no matter who on the team uses
them.
Learning Objectives:
