The Challenge
What we solved
General contractors were losing bids because their in-house estimating teams couldn't keep up with project volume. Outsourcing to traditional estimation firms meant unpredictable hourly billing, week-long turnarounds and estimates that came back in formats that didn't match their bidding workflows. They needed a service that felt like an extension of their own team.
The Solution
How we built it
We designed and developed a conversion-focused website with a frictionless project submission flow — no lengthy intake forms, just upload plans and get a scope confirmation within hours. The site features transparent flat-rate pricing across three service tiers, a free one-division sample to build trust before commitment, and a clear four-step process that sets expectations from first contact to delivered workbook.
