Sage Timberline Office News & Tips
Sage Estimating Extended Customers Enjoy Free Model Estimating

Two years ago, Sage made the decision to “bundle” Model Estimating into the Estimating product. For new customers, this provided added capabilities as well as productivity and analysis tools.

So, what does that mean to you today? It’s simple. Free software! If you’re an Estimating Extended customer you will now receive (free of charge) one copy of Model Estimating for each core Estimating use you own.

So just what is Model Estimating?
Model Estimating helps you generate detailed conceptual estimates by answering a series of basic questions about a project. You simply respond to an on-screen survey and let Model Estimating tap into the first-of-a-kind Knowledgebase of Sage Timberline Office estimating software, Electrical, Commercial or Residential, to produce fast, precise estimates. Backed by extensive detail, everything you need to support your bid, concept, or estimate is there in black and white - costs, quantities, crews, hours, and waste factors.

And with Model Estimating, you can easily modify and monitor your estimate as changes are made to the design or project plan. You'll know exactly how those changes impact your estimate, before they add up to a budget issue,

Here are just a few of the benefits for this powerful module:

• Answers to conceptual questions feed hundreds of variables for items and assemblies automatically generating a conceptual estimate in seconds.
• Create specialized models to fit your specific business processes.
• Easily perform what-if scenarios for instant side-by-side comparisons.
