The Challenge
Emerald Insulation & Acoustical Inc. relied on manual takeoffs using PDF drawings and traditional tools before adopting Beam AI.
This made estimating time-consuming and limited the number of opportunities the team could realistically pursue. Takeoffs often stretched over hours or even days, depending on project size, leaving less time to review drawings, coordinate scope, and prepare competitive bids.\
Managing addenda was another challenge, since manually tracking them required extra effort and increased the risk of missing important changes.
Beam AI helps us complete takeoffs much faster, giving us more time to review project documents, coordinate scopes, and prepare more competitive bids.
