WinEst

WinEst from Trimble is a powerful estimating software used in commercial and large residential projects. Builders can create detailed cost breakdowns, item databases, and assemblies for quick estimate building. A “modeling” feature tests scenarios (e.g., bigger floor plans, upgraded finishes). Integration with project scheduling tools ensures consistent resource planning. WinEst’s cost library can sync with RSMeans or custom data. A robust reporting engine reveals summaries, cost trends, and markup details. While more advanced, it’s well-suited for home builders needing enterprise-grade estimating precision.
