Project Estimating

Because of the requirement to provide accurate bids and proposals to prospective customers, one of the most critical requirements of any order-driven environment is the accurate estimating of all costs associated with an item or a contract. Jobscope's Estimating system provides functions that allow you to enter, update, and delete estimate information.

Estimating provides the capability to generate current quotations for existing bill-of-material structures, as well as items that have never before been created. Copy Estimates is a time-saving feature that allows a new estimate to be quickly created from an existing one, providing the ability to perform "same-as-except" estimating.
