The
ideal
alternative
to
hiring
an
outside
service
is
to
build
up
an
in-house
estimating
department.
Unfortunately,
doing
so
comes
with
a
series
of
significant
costs:
Full-time
estimators
need
to
be
paid,
even
when
their
services
aren't
being
used.
This
can
add
unnecessary
financial
strain
to
your
operations
Managing
your
estimating
team
takes
away
time
that
you
and
your
managers
should
be
spending
on
prospective
client
meetings
The
initial
investment
to
create
an
in-house
estimating
team
includes
expenses
like
software,
equipment,
training,
and
more
By
passing
your
estimating
requirements
to
Charter
Estimating,
you
not
only
bypass
these
costs.
You
reap
the
benefits
that
result
from
the
tried-and-true
processes
that
we've
developed
over
the
years:
accuracy,
customization,
and
a
competitive
advantage.
