Quantity Takeoff and CSI Cost Estimation project example

ESTIARCH project documentation and visual design

Most in-house teams are stretched thin during bid season, and most outside estimators only show up once, at the very end, with a fixed drawing set and no context on how the project actually got there.

We work differently. We estimate across the full project lifecycle — not just the final bid — so the numbers you're working with are accurate at every stage, not just the last one.

What's Included

  • Quantity Takeoff — Material quantities extracted trade by trade, straight from your drawings.
  • Cost Estimation — CSI-division-based pricing, built on current market rates.
  • Bid Preparation and Bidding Support — Numbers turned into a submittable, competitive bid package.
  • BOQ Preparation — Formal Bill of Quantities, client- and jurisdiction-ready.
  • Tender Management — Coordinating the documentation and submission process around a tender, not just the numbers behind it.
  • Pre-Construction Estimation — Early-stage budgets before drawings are finalized, for feasibility and planning.
  • Estimation Across the Project Lifecycle — From concept budget through schematic design, design development, and construction documents, to final bid.

Why Speed Matters

Waiting on an estimate is the one thing that stalls a bid you were otherwise ready to submit. A late or inaccurate takeoff doesn't just cost you time — it costs you the job to a competitor who priced faster, or eats your margin when the numbers were wrong to begin with.

Flexible Engagement

Whether you need a single trade estimate for one bid or ongoing estimating support across every project you run — we scale to what you need. No minimum, no fixed package required.
