The CIT estimating solutions suite encompasses all functionality required to describe, quantify and price work whatever the route to project procurement. The system has been designed with all practical functions to support both traditional and design and build tendering, complete with all levels of detailed measurement and pricing capabilities.
Supporting and integral to the core estimating application is a detailed package management module, enabling sub-contract and materials packages to be compared, analysed, selected and used. This module itself is supported by an integral vendor database, that speeds up the production of pre & post contract enquiries against your QA approved sub-contractors and suppliers.
All expected estimating functionality have been carefully engineered into the system harnessing the latest Windows™ technologies to speed up the tendering process without compromising audit and control. Traditional keyboard control is now supported by 'drag and drop', familiar Windows Explorer™ and Excel™ spreadsheet views and dynamic links to common Office applications.
