Overall Satisfaction with Trimble Accubid

The product is used to estimate in a systematic manner new construction and larger remodel projects for our organization. It also allows us to manage the job, post construction by having detailed budgets for our projects that are broken out in bite size pieces for us to handle. The main use case is for new construction however.
  • Material estimating
  • Labor estimating
  • Aggregating vendor quotes
  • Budgeting estimated Gross Margin for a job
  • The user interface for adding assemblies to a job
  • Material database management
  • Doesn't integrate well with any other platforms other than their own.
  • reduced estimating cost vs pen and paper
  • because it's a widely used platform it's easy to recruit estimators to the platform
  • works well in a multi estimator environment

We use Trimble Accubid to do detailed cost estimates for larger jobs. If a job has a set of blueprints, the software is designed to go through each page systematically to aggregate a bid. Where it is less appropriate are for smaller service jobs. It takes a lot of setup for a new job there are other solutions better suited for service work.
