Fast Track Construction Estimating Software on CD-ROM Overview
The heart of the system is the database of typical residential construction tasks based on the unit costing model. In this estimating method, the components of the job are estimated in units such as lineal feet or square feet or on a "per item" basis.
For example, 20 lineal feet of exterior load bearing wall, or 400 square feet of 4" concrete slab, or one 6'0" by 6'8" double door.
The estimating process is simple. Select items from the assembly database to include in the estimate. As assemblies are added, the standard cost for material, labor, sub-contractor and other cost is assumed. Each item can be adjusted if desired to reflect a non-standard cost.
You can build templates for common jobs, clone existing estimates, adjust assembly prices and markups as needed and enter several different tax codes. When you're done, a variety of reports are available, including Material purchase lists and labor reports. Help screens are available at every step.
