\nThis bootcamp offers practical\, industry-proven techniques and best practices designed to help estimators improve their bidding process and win more work. Participants will explore key topics such as interpreting construction documents\, identifying work scopes\, pre-qualifying trade partners\, performing quantity take-offs\, pricing strategies\, bid tabulations\, estimating general conditions\, and calculating indirect costs.
\n
\nSession Learner Objectives:
\nIdentify the Qualities of a Good Estimator
\nLearners will understand the key traits and skills required to become an effective estimator\, including accuracy\, attention to detail\, and strong analytical capabilities.
\n
\nApply Productivity Best Practices to Enhance Bidding Success
\nLearners will understand how to implement productivity strategies that optimize efficiency and competitiveness in the bidding process\, enabling them to secure more projects.
\n
\nAnalyzing Construction Documents to Identify Scopes of Work
\nDevelop the ability to thoroughly review\, visualize\, and interpret construction documents to ensure that scopes of work are identified. This process minimizes the opportunity to miss scopes of work that could lead to losing money.
\n
\nUnderstand the Prequalification Process and Invitations to Bid
\nGain insight into the process of prequalifying contractors\, sending out invitations to bid\, and matching scopes to the most suitable trades. This process leads to securing more work for the right price.
\n
\nPerform Quantity Take-offs for Self-performance or Subcontractor Scope Verification
\nAcquire skills to conduct accurate quantity take-offs for both self-performed and subcontractor scopes of work\, ensuring completeness and cost accuracy.
\n
\nUtilize Bid Tabs and Leveling Sheets for Scope Pricing Accuracy
\nUnderstand how to use bid tabs or leveling sheets to compare and analyze bids\, ensuring that the right cost is assigned to the correct scope of work.
\n
\nEstimate General Conditions and Indirect Costs Effectively
\nLearners will gain an understanding of how to estimate general conditions and indirect costs\, contributing to a more comprehensive and accurate overall project estimate.
\n \;
\n
\nEngaging Hands-on Activities:
\nScenario Based Work Sessions are utilized so each learner can practice the techniques and best practices covered in the Estimating Boot Camp. Scenarios will include work sessions for visualizing and interpreting construction documents\, scope identification processes\, self-performance quantity take-offs\, bid tabulation exercises\, and indirect costs including bond cost calculations.  \;
