Quoting & Estimating Systems
Quoting and estimating systems give your team one consistent place to price a job, handling materials, labour, margins, and approvals, so quotes go out faster and nothing slips through on price. They're built for manufacturers and fabricators whose quoting is slow, inconsistent, or stuck in one estimator's head.
What it is
Quoting is often the most important number your business produces, and the most fragile. The logic lives in a master spreadsheet, a senior estimator's experience, or both, which means quotes are slow, pricing drifts between people, and a single formula error can quietly erode a margin.
We build quoting tools that put your pricing logic in one place: materials, labour rates, overhead, and margin rules applied the same way every time, with approvals routed automatically and a clean, proposal-ready output at the end.
Who it's for
This is the right fit if:
- Quotes take too long, and the backlog costs you jobs.
- Pricing depends on one or two people who "just know" the numbers.
- The same job gets quoted differently depending on who does it.
- Margins slip because of manual errors no one catches until later.
- Approvals happen over email or in person, with no record of what was approved.
What you get
- ✓ One source of truth for pricing logic: materials, labour, overhead, and margin.
- ✓ Consistent quotes regardless of who builds them.
- ✓ Margin controls and validation that catch errors before the quote goes out.
- ✓ Approval routing, so nothing is sent without the right sign-off.
- ✓ Proposal-ready output your customer can read and your team can stand behind.
- ✓ Quote history and versioning, so you can see what changed and why.
What we build
Custom manufacturing quotes
Pricing built around your products, options, and rules, not a generic template.
Fabrication estimating
Material, cut, and labour calculations handled in one place.
Proposal-ready outputs
Clean documents generated straight from the quote, no re-keying.
How it works
We map how you quote today, including the judgment that lives in people's heads, and design the system with your estimators, and build in focused stages so the tool reflects how you actually price. Then we support adoption as the team moves real quotes through it.
