Chief Estimator

Harddollar Image_"To meet the company growth expectations, we need a consistent way to estimate projects and capture the experience of our senior estimators so we can spend more time understanding pricing strategies and cash flow."

Hard Dollar understands the challenges you face as you grow the business. Look below for the challenges you face on a daily basis, and see how Hard Dollar can help.

  • Our estimators can’t be efficient with all of the last-minute changes to bids.
  • We start from scratch on every bid, and it takes way too long.
  • Younger estimators need access to the valuable knowledge of our more experienced estimators.
  • Demanding clients ask us to create customized bids that are very time-consuming to create.

The Challenges

"In our business, things are always changing right up to the last minute before the bid is due. Whoever handles those changes the most effectively usually wins the work."

"My estimators love working with Hard Dollar because it allows them to truly build a “model” of a project’s costs. That means we can handle last-minute sub quotes, changes to project quantities, and even try vastly different pricing strategies right up until bid time."

"We have as many estimating formats as we have estimators.  Every bid is presented differently and I feel like I am always starting over."

"Hard Dollar standardizes estimating formats across my entire team. This ensures a consistent estimating approach and makes our bid reviews much faster."

"My estimators are growing older and years of knowledge are retiring with them. We can’t find qualified estimators to replace them."

"Unlike spreadsheets, Hard Dollar stores and categorizes all of our estimating work so it can be leveraged on future projects - by current and future estimators."

"The bidding requirements keep getting more demanding and complex. We need a simple way to manage more information."

"Hard Dollar’s flexibility is amazing – it allow us to 'slice and dice' estimates and bids in all the different ways our most demanding customers come up with – and get results in seconds."
