Real-time Estimating

---

Estimating project budgets can be a tricky task. You don't want your estimate to be lower than the lowest bidder, but you don't want to be too high either. CCMS facilitates preparing budgets for contracts from a database that stores and maintains historical average prices of standard items from previous contracts, assisting engineers in developing accurate estimates for their projects.

Let CCMS help you ensure your estimates are consistently in the contract price range and you are always 'On Budget'

• Create standard bid items which can be used to easily retrieve historical average bid prices
• Retrieve historical prices based on similar quantity range and times of year for increased accuracy
• Remove imbalanced bid items for calculating accurate average item prices by letting the system eliminate outliers
• Review and analyze details of how each average price is calculated, and adjust to reflect current material price index changes
