For estimators who demand more from estimating systems, Sage Timberline Estimating Extended Edition offers out most comprehensive package of cutting-edge estimating tools. The software combines key estimating capabilities with the latest Microsoft Windows technology to deliver a solution packed with innovations to increase efficiency.

Slash takeoff time.

Sage Timberline Estimating offers estimators three ways to take off estimates in less time. With quick takeoff, you simply drag individual or groups of items from the cost database directly into the onscreen spreadsheet. Enter dimensions, and the software calculates all quantities for you. Or, if you prefer, you can use item takeoff to work with items prior to pulling them into the spreadsheet.
For ultimate time-savings, Smart Assemblies takeoff is your tool, letting you take off all items in a wall, door, concrete slab or other building component in just one step.
A takeoff order audit trail is also included in Estimating Extended, so you can double-check your work at any time.

Automate Crew Pricing

Estimating Extended gives you the labour and equipment requirements needed to complete the job and automate all crew pricing. Crews can be built in your database or during takeoff.

Keep bids and quotes within reach

The software's subcontractor bid grid offers a simple way to store, analyse and select subcontractor bids and quotes by item. Log each subcontractors name, bid quantity, unit price, total bid amount and any notes in the popup grid. Then just "check" the bid you'd like yo use, and the estimate instantly calculates the item based on your decision. What if you change your mind? simply check a replacement bid, and the substitution is made instantly.

See it all from a new angle.

With Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) codes, you can organise estimates a variety of ways. By project phase, Drawing detail, Or location, Like floor1 or 2. Just define and assign your own WBS codes to any estimate item, either in the database or during takeoff. With the ability to attach up to 12 WBS codes to each item, your analysis and reporting possibilities are endless.
Not only can you work with an estimate in any order you choose, you can change the order instantly using the sequencing tabs at the bottom of the spreadsheet.

Easily make adjustments.

Whether it's during analysis or at the last minute, making adjustments to an estimate is a snap in Estimating Extended. The software's adjust column feature lets you revise all, or a portion of, the quantities, amounts and prices contained within a column at once. By a percentage; by multiplying or dividing an amount; by replacing an amount; or by spreading an amount proportionally over the selection.
On bid day, when time is everything, adjustments can be easily made through Estimating Extended's totals page. Log last-minute cuts& adds that affect many estimate areas once in the cuts & adds log to have the software automatically generate the change throughout the spreadsheet. Or use the adjust job totals feature to match a predefined job total or cost per unit, or to play with the final number.

Go global.

Estimating Extended makes it easy for you to take off an estimate in one system of measurement and deliver it in another. Estimates can automatically be converted from Imperial units to Metric units or vice versa.

Present your work with flair.

With so much riding on it, it's critical that the work you produce for clients and upper management be professional looking and easy to understand. Estimating Extended reports are just that, with the ability to include different type fonts and sizes, bolding, italics and colours, You can create custom headers and footers, including graphics, and use WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) reporting to quickly strip, add to and track an estimate just the way you want.
Estimating Extended also delivers a number of advanced reports to help in estimate analysis. Print the cost variance report to quickly see where costs and quantities have varied between two similar projects. Or view the cost comparison report to zero in on where unit costs have changed between conceptual, interim and final estimates on a project.
