How it works

Three steps from plans to numbers

  1. 1

    Send your plans

    Share drawings, specs and the bid date through the form. A link to your plan room works fine.

  2. 2

    Get a scope review

    We review the documents, flag gaps and confirm scope and schedule before any estimating begins.

  3. 3

    Receive your numbers

    A clear, organized estimate or proposal on time, ready to put your name on and submit.

Technology

Latest technology. Including AI. Verified by experience.

We use modern estimating software and AI tools to work faster and catch more, then apply 40 years of judgment to every number before it goes out under your name.

AI-assisted plan and spec review

AI tools scan drawings and specifications to surface scope items, alternates, addenda changes and conflicts early, so fewer surprises reach bid day.

Digital takeoff

On-screen quantity takeoff for ductwork, piping, fixtures, equipment and devices: faster counts, cleaner measurements and an audit trail for every quantity.

BIM and model review

Where models exist, we use them to check coordination, quantities and constructability, the way modern design-build and IPD teams work.

AI-supported proposal writing

AI helps draft and tailor narratives, qualifications and scope letters to each Owner/GC. Inclusions, assumptions and exclusions are validated after a full project review, and every word is edited by a person who has run the work.

Cloud collaboration

Share plans by link, track RFIs and clarifications, and get deliverables in the formats your team already uses.

Data-driven training

Management training built on job-cost data, change-order history and productivity metrics, so improvements are measurable.

Technology speeds up the work. People are accountable for it: every estimate and proposal is reviewed by Michael before delivery.

Rush jobs welcome

Questions

Good to know

Do you use AI in your estimates and proposals?

Yes. We use AI and digital takeoff tools to review plans and specs, speed up quantities and draft proposal language. Every estimate and proposal is then checked and finalized by Michael, so you get the speed of modern tools with the judgment of 40+ years in MEP construction.

Who do you work with?

Small and midsize mechanical, electrical and plumbing contractors, and other specialty trades that want big-firm estimating capability without a full in-house department.

What do I need to send to get started?

Plans and specs (or a link to them), your bid due date, and any scope notes. If something is missing, the scope review will tell you what.

Can you work to my bid deadline?

Tell us the due date up front. The form has a bid date field so timing is part of the first conversation, not a surprise at the end.

Do you only estimate, or can you help with the proposal too?

Both. Many clients pair an estimate with a written proposal. Training is a separate engagement for teams that want better systems behind the numbers.
