Estimating, job costing and project control tools for construction and property

Margins in construction are won or lost in the estimate and the cost report.

Trusted by New Zealand organisations from national insurers to specialist manufacturers.

Estimators juggle rates, quantities, variations and supplier prices across workbooks that grow with every job. Off-the-shelf estimating software rarely fits how a specialist contractor actually prices work, so Excel stays at the centre.

We build estimating, quoting and job-costing tools around your pricing logic, from renovation costing apps to development feasibility models, so quotes are faster and consistent and actual costs track against budget as the job runs.

Challenges we see in construction & property

  • Quotes take too long and vary by estimator
  • Rates and supplier prices go stale across many workbooks
  • Variations and change orders aren't tracked against budget
  • Job cost reporting lags behind what's happening on site
  • Development feasibility models are fragile and hard to scenario-test

Where AI fits in construction

AI is useful at the messy edges of estimating.

  • Extract quantities and line items from supplier quotes and PDFs
  • Compare tendered prices against historical rates
  • Summarise site reports and variation notes

Frequently asked questions

Why not just buy estimating software?

Packaged tools suit standard work. If your pricing logic is specialised, a custom tool fits it better and costs less to change.

Can the estimator's existing workbook be the starting point?

Yes. We keep what works and rebuild the rest.

Can it produce a branded quote document?

Yes. Quotes can be generated to PDF or Word from the estimate.

Can actual costs feed back in?

Yes, from your accounting or job management system.

Quote faster and protect your margin
