Challenges Before Beam AI
Before implementing Beam AI, Rocky Mountain Steel, Inc. faced multiple challenges in its takeoff bidding processes:
- Manual takeoffs took 2-3 days for standard projects and up to 5 days for large-scale ones.
- Limited bid capacity, restricting the number of projects they could take on.
- Time-consuming takeoff processes diverted attention from project management and strategic growth.
- While bids were accurate, they weren’t as fast and efficient enough to drive an increase in revenue.
“With Beam AI, we’re saving up to 2 days on takeoffs, and it has become a part of our growth plans.”
