What is Fast Track Estimating?

Fast Track Estimating software provides precise estimates and a comprehensive list of materials needed for purchasing. At its core, this construction estimating tool features a compilation of common tasks in residential construction, which are based on established unit costs. To create an estimate, users can simply pick items from the assembly list, whereby the software automatically incorporates standard costs associated with labor, materials, and other expenses. Users also have the option to modify these standard costs if necessary. Designed with flexibility in mind, this software was developed by a contractor, making it user-friendly for managing various construction projects efficiently. Additionally, it allows for the creation of templates for frequently performed tasks, the ability to duplicate estimates, and the option to adjust pricing and markups, as well as input multiple tax rates. Once the estimating process is completed, a range of reports is available for review, and users can access helpful screens to assist them throughout their experience. This ensures that you have all the necessary tools at your disposal for effective project management.

What is CostMate?

CostMate helps New Zealand residential builders, from sole traders to small crews, price a job and then run it. It covers 17 job types such as decks, fences, bathrooms, kitchens, reclads and additions. For each one it lists the materials with quantities, the labour hours by stage, and the assumptions and exclusions your client should see. Prices are taken from Dayle ITM or PlaceMakers trade pricing, or from your own uploaded supplier pricing, on every plan. The figures are calculated by a rules engine, not by AI; AI only writes the wording. Once the quote is accepted, the same job carries on with variations, purchase orders, progress claims and crew hours that count only after you approve them. Built in Auckland by a qualified carpenter. Free plan available, plus 30 days of full access for new accounts, no card needed.
