Conceptual estimation is a process that insures a more exact estimation by first starting with a broad estimate based on the difficulty or feasibility of a project. Then, that estimate is refined through a well-designed process to come into line with the specific design and construction requirements for the project as they are developed. Conceptual estimating in Indiana provides a far more accurate estimate, and it is a process that refines itself overtime, as a company’s estimation procedures are further standardized, and as its estimation database is expanded. We’ll explain all that and more in this blog about the perks... View Article
