Great Estimators know that to be competitive and competent in the current market, their companies must continually be in search of an ‘edge.’  “How can we approach this project differently than our competition?”

This open forum discussion led by a panel of experienced construction estimators explores advanced elements of construction estimating. Experienced Estimators will be challenged to evaluate their own systems within the framework of current trends and models. Every topic will be discussed from various perspectives to allow Estimators from across the spectrum to benefit.

Topics include:

• Cost / price analysis
• Pricing project constraints
• How to build flexibility into your system
• Optimum time to complete
• Escalation
• Managing risk within the estimate
• Danger zones to avoid
