Designed to make estimating easy for tradies
If you’re an experienced demolition contractor, you probably know how long it would typically take to do a take-off from drawings without the assistance of specialised software. It often takes hours and hours of work until you’re even in a position to put a quote together.
Perhaps you’ve often thought to yourself that there must be a simpler way.
Here’s where RapidBid comes to the rescue. Perfect for demolition estimating, our software can help you quickly process drawings and launch straight into your take-off on your computer screen. There’s no longer any need for time-consuming (and frankly boring) take-offs done with paper, rulers and pens.
“I have a mate who is an electrical contractor and he was telling me that he spent three weeks pricing a $200,000 job by hand. I told him that with my estimating and PDF take off software, I started a $700,000 job yesterday and finished it today!”
“As much as I would hate to help any of my competitors, I have to completely endorse RapidBid in all that it offers for a business. Our quotation rate has increased from 50 to over 200 quotations per month.”
“RapidBid is a lifesaver. It’s so easy to use, I just open the drawings and within minutes I have scaled, marked and priced up all my materials and labour. It has increased the speed that we can win work four times over, at least.”
“At last, take-offs for the 21st century! After years spent marking up drawings with highlighters and producing takeoff sheets, this is a revolution in estimating. Just can’t live without it – I now takeoff five projects in the time it used to take to do just one.”
“RapidBid easily saves me 90% of my takeoff time, so it’s extremely useful for projects that need a quick turnaround. Brilliant software that is so easy to use.”
“Now, overall from top to bottom, RapidBid’s software saves me about 70% of my time, and that makes an amazing difference. Quotes that took me five days before now take me less than two days, and I’ve only been estimating since January.”
“I work as an estimator Monday-to-Friday, 9-to-5, and your software and support is first class. I can takeoff and price well over 10 drawings in less than an hour, this used to take me half a day before! I just love how simple it is.”
We used to do takeoffs with a scale ruler and a pencil which was very time consuming, and now we have a much quicker takeoff time. We only spend around 1 or 2 hours doing takeoffs with RapidBid’s software and before it used to take us about 5 or 6 hours.
“We used to have a three or four-process estimate which was over-complicated, but now we have a simple, one-process estimate. We definitely recommend!”
“Time saving is the biggest advantage for us by far. RapidBid saved us about 80% of our time and increased our productivity 50%.”
RapidBid has been specifically designed for simplicity. We don’t expect you to be highly trained in any kind of software to get the benefits of using our system. After all, it’s about making your job simpler, not more complicated.
All you need is fast and easy access to the tools you need to get the job done. That’s what you get with RapidBid, starting from Contractor level. Alternatively, Professional licences unlock additional, powerful features to speed up your bidding process even more.
Here’s an overview of what your demolition estimating process could look like if you decide to start using RapidBid.
#1: Review your files in record time, easily select the ones you require and import them from a folder on your computer into the software.
#2: Remove any unnecessary clutter on the drawing with our built-in digital tools. Backgrounds and irrelevant layers can be switched off at the click of a button.
#3: Easily control and manipulate drawings however you like to get a clearer view. Zoom in or out, rotate and focus on the areas you need to, working your way across the drawing at lightning speed.
#4: Measure, count and calculate all the relevant lengths, areas and angles you need to create your list of required labour and materials.
#5: With all of our plans you can automatically generate an estimate as you go along. This makes creating and submitting your final bid a piece of cake.
So RapidBid can shorten and simplify your estimating process massively at almost every stage, making it quicker and easier than ever to work out what resources will be required for a job, and therefore how much money you stand to make. This is invaluable to contractors because of the greater accuracy and huge time savings.
If you think you might benefit from spending less time on each bid – while also being more confident that your figures are correct – the next step is very simple, and doesn’t cost you anything other than about 20 seconds of your time.
