Construction Estimating Software Features - Comparing Estimates Side-By-Side
On occasion, an estimator may need to analyze multiple estimates side-by-side. For
example, design-build firms may compare cost estimates based on the preliminary
design versus the final design. Homebuilders may have template estimates for all
their models. If one of these model estimates is copied for a particular lot/customer
and is updated, the estimator may want to compare the original template estimate
with the most recent price update. Comparing estimates is also valuable for firms
that do value-engineering.
With Corecon, comparing 2, 3, or 4 estimates side-by-side can be done with a click
of a button. This comparison is performed at the work breakdown structure level
and for the entire estimate. This would be very difficult to do with a spreadsheet
based system and most competing estimating software packages on the market and is
another differentiator of Corecon!
