The Challenge
Before adopting Beam AI, Petticoat-Schmitt Civil Contractors relied on manual takeoff tools like Planswift, which stretched takeoff cycles to 2–3 days per project. This significantly slowed down their estimating process, leaving little time to refine bids or respond quickly to changes.
As a result, the team had to pass on opportunities simply due to bandwidth, limiting bids/week, and reducing client and subcontractor engagement. Manual workflows also made handling addenda and spec changes tedious. Find out how Beam AI helped them cut takeoff time and bid more without growing the team.
With Beam AI, we've slashed bidding time by days, and the team could send out significantly more bids, increasing our opportunity pipeline.
