Construction professionals are facing increasing pressure to deliver projects faster, with greater precision, and under tighter margins. Active Estimating addresses these challenges by introducing a platform that uses data-driven intelligence to eliminate repetitive manual tasks and dramatically improve the speed and accuracy of estimates. Designed specifically with the needs of commercial drywall and specialty contractors in mind, it offers a streamlined, intuitive experience that empowers estimators to do more with less effort.
At the heart of Active Estimating is a commitment to automating time-consuming estimating tasks. By minimizing manual data entry and streamlining plan management, estimators can significantly reduce the time spent on each project.
Estimators often spend up to 40% of their time organizing files and takeoffs. Active Estimating simplifies this process by intelligently managing naming conventions, sorting content, and providing intuitive plan navigation tools that cut this overhead significantly.
This platform was built from the ground up by estimators, for estimators. The result is an estimating environment that is both powerful and easy to use, incorporating features that support real-world workflows without unnecessary complexity.
Rather than relying on rigid templates or static libraries, Active Estimating learns from user behavior and applies data-driven rules that help streamline future projects. This reduces variability and supports scalable operations, especially valuable for growing teams.
Collaboration is a key differentiator in today’s competitive construction landscape. With Active Estimating, teams can more easily share estimates, track progress, and ensure alignment across roles and responsibilities.
Whether onboarding a new estimator or reviewing a large-scale bid, the platform enhances transparency and makes it easier to transfer knowledge and maintain consistency across departments and projects.
Active Estimating isn’t just a tool—it’s a strategic asset for companies looking to grow their estimating capacity without a proportional increase in overhead. From regional contractors to national specialty firms, the platform supports scalable success.
With data-driven intelligence embedded in every layer, estimators are equipped with smart suggestions and safeguards that lead to better outcomes with fewer surprises.
One of the standout advantages of Active Estimating is how it bridges the gap between raw plan data and actionable bid insights—allowing companies to bid more confidently and win more work.
Active Estimating is more than just estimating software; it’s part of a movement toward smarter, more agile preconstruction. By removing the friction of outdated workflows and replacing it with intelligent automation, the platform sets a new standard for what’s possible in commercial estimating.
As construction teams continue to look for ways to improve their efficiency and decision-making, Active Estimating is positioning itself as a central component of that evolution—driving measurable results from day one.
