The one tool in the set that isn't a calculator — it's a scope-builder.
Where FlexiQ, RigidIQ, and HeliPlanIQ solve an engineering equation, Proposal Estimator solves a different problem: turning a project's design stages and drawing list into man-hours, a schedule, and a fee — configured per department, exported straight into Excel and Word.
Every number on the page rolls up into hours, sheets, and a schedule.
Design stages configured per department
Company Configuration defines the departments and the stage catalog once — Concept Design, Preliminary Design, Detailed Design and so on — and every proposal picks from that shared catalog instead of retyping it.
Drawings and tasks build the stage total
Each stage holds a table of sheet titles with size, scale, sheet count, and man-hours per sheet — plus stage tasks for effort that doesn't map to a drawing. Stage totals for sheets and hours update as line items are added.
Complementary tasks stay linked to their stage
A complementary task is tied to the stage it belongs to, so it is included automatically in that stage's exported scope of work — nothing has to be cross-referenced by hand.
A built-in rate-consistency check
A later stage should never cost the same or more hours per sheet than the stage before it — Proposal Estimator flags any stage that breaks that rule before the proposal goes out.
The delivery timeline builds itself
Project duration and each stage's own duration generate a week-by-week Gantt view automatically, down to the individual drawing group inside a stage.
Subconsultants and exclusions, ready for the document
Subconsultant scopes and stated exclusions are entered once and carried straight into the exported scope of work.
Three exports, one source of truth.
Stages, tasks, subconsultants, and exclusions live in one project. Three buttons turn that project into the documents a proposal actually needs.
