Estimating Explorer offers you a better solution to efficiently organize, manage and analyze your estimates. Tracking down a specific estimate in bid logs that often contain hundreds of estimates can be a nightmare. And managing your estimates grows more complex with every bid you create.

The key to estimate control is organization. Estimating Explorer eliminates time-intensive searches by automatically creating an up-to-date master list and description of every estimate in your system. Within seconds you can sort your estimates by estimator, bid date, estimate number or a variety of other criteria to locate an estimate. Once you do, you’re just one click away from the estimate’s spreadsheet.

Estimating Explorer’s file management tools don’t end there. The software’s ability to compress and archive estimates and all their associated files, not only saves you disk space but also allows instant access to all your estimates—both new and old.

Estimating Explorer also helps you keep track of your bid schedules. Log important bid events, such as bid dates, pre-bid meetings, and site inspections. And, with built-in integration to Microsoft Outlook, you’ll be reminded of important Bid Due dates and times to ensure you don’t miss a deadline.

Managing your estimates also means understanding the big picture. Estimating Explorer not only organizes your estimates, but gives you the tools to stand back and analyze your work. Need to know what your estimating volume is by estimator?
Or your year-to-date estimate volume? You can find these and many other answers using Estimating Explorer’s management reports and graphs. Estimate information can also be exported directly to Microsoft Excel for further analysis or custom graphing.
