Hands down the best construction cradle to grave platform.

Because I've used several other platforms, and they suck when it comes to drilling down. Once we have the controls platform in full usage with 100% of the projects this will improve the rating to a 10.

Been using this with remote workers for years. It's excellent, and the changes are traceable. One of the challenges is bring new people into the organization and having them understand the differences between resource items and cost items. While Kiewit may have at one point purchased InEight (HardDollar) they failed to keep the resource and cost items as materials vs subcontracts resulting in misinformed individuals preaching this is the "Kiewit way". Sorry, that is the wrong way, you tag cost items in the CBS as such clearly identifying the unique scope of the subcontract. A resource is often a multiple usage item and can be used in many areas therefore anything used in the Unique register should be limited to strictly and unit price of Labor and Equipment such as outside rental dump trucks, concrete pumps, testing services, sweeping, traffic control and so on. Please beat this into the Kiewit estimating team. I've been using this platform since 2000, they have not.

In the past excellent, the training online and via help videos takes away the user experience and quite frankly sucks. I've known Richard Moore for 28 years and he is one of the InEight representatives that helps JWF and I would rather utilize an onsite trainer than help videos. People make the difference not the screen with how to videos. That only works for car shows with humor, this is real world work, no humor to help this.

InEight is an excellent platform for large and small projects. The difficulty comes when bidding work based on the department of transportation specifications to the CSI divisions 0-46. There is no one size fits all, so you find a butting of heads in working with a transportation estimator and industrial estimator. Both see the other as useless divisions, often resulting in a tangled mess of a bid if a senior individual is not running lead. As for the size of projects, the system is excellent for thousand-dollar change orders to billion-dollar projects. The outputs can be as detailed or rolled up as necessary so as not to overwhelm clients or management.
