Steel estimation solution

Client

Steel estimation company with an idea for a new product

A leading developer of estimation solutions for steel construction companies, our client has been in the industry for over 40 years. Their first solution controlled about 8 percent of the market share. The client’s idea was to improve the product and enhance the efficiency and accuracy of estimations and bids for steel erection companies by leveraging the client’s deep industry knowledge.

Problem

Steel erection companies continue to use Excel for calculations

Steel construction companies traditionally perform estimations manually using simple tools like Excel spreadsheets or even paper, resulting in time-consuming and inconsistent processes. Despite our client’s previous system being an industry standard, there was a need for a more advanced solution to further streamline these processes and address the inefficiencies and inaccuracies inherent in manual estimations.

Solution

Application using 300+ formulas to instantly estimate construction costs

Syberry partnered with the client to develop a new web-based solution designed to optimize project estimation and management processes. This new system integrates the best practices from the client’s Excel-based system while introducing advanced features for real-time tracking, forecasting, and task assessment.

The system includes a company portal for managing company information, subscriptions, and notifications. The app’s estimating tool manages the entire bidding process, including labor and task configuration, equipment management, report generation, and project setup. The system also features a project management section with tracking tools, assignments, and a foreman interface for on-site work management.
