A professional cost estimating consulting company
With over 1,000 satisfied clients across the North American construction industry, our team of estimators and consultants is well-versed in current market conditions and different construction techniques, and holds a keen eye for detail. We stay committed through every phase of construction and design — from budget estimate to construction document estimate — advising on budgeting, filing proposals, choosing contractors, negotiations, value engineering and project closeout.
Able Estimating serves developers, general contractors, subcontractors, architects, home builders, owners and lenders across a diverse portfolio of commercial, residential and industrial projects. Our expert estimators digitally take off quantities using the latest takeoff software and a highly developed construction cost database that supplies location-based pricing for labor and material.
We follow the policies and guidelines of certified estimating organizations, including the American Association of Cost Engineers (AACE) and the Australian Institute of Quantity Surveyors (AIQS).
Services our estimating consultant provides
Our 15 years of experience and a thorough understanding of the AEC industry lets us help clients understand construction cost, run the right takeoffs, and foresee and manage their budget.
Feasibility Studies
For developers, investors and owners weighing whether a project is worth the time and budget, our preliminary estimates, feasibility studies and square-footage pricing inform decisions from economic, legal, scheduling and financial angles.
Preconstruction & Change Order Management
Accurate material takeoff, labor and man-hours matter. We give GCs, construction managers and owners reliable consultancy on procurement, value analysis, scheduling and labor — avoiding reordering, shortages and waste.
CPM Scheduling Services
Our CPM consultants work with your project teams to keep delivery on time — planning activities, measuring progress, quantifying results and updating for change across the entire project lifecycle to hit your milestones.
Bidding Assistance
Need help with the bidding process? Our estimators build an accurate bill of materials and your bids, then advise on bid filing, winning tactics and negotiation — and can manage your bidding network profiles.
Litigation Assistance
Facing a construction dispute — negligence, misrepresentation, deceptive trade practices or fraud? We supply accurate, independent cost data with our company stamp to support intervention, negotiation, testimony and trial.
Project Cost Management
We understand budget constraints. Our consultants engage from planning and design through construction and closeout to estimate, monitor and control costs so you reach your project goals.
