About HeavyBid
Activities and bid items can be built on the fly, copied from any previous estimate, or pulled from a list of standardized activities of work with HeavyBid construction estimating software. Directly import bid items from DOT websites to significantly reduce the time spent building estimates.
HCSS takes your produced bid items and quantity information created from external takeoff programs and inputs that data in HeavyBid to accurately produce a cost estimate.
HeavyBid is used by estimators across 4,000+ companies, including 44 of the ENR top 50 heavy civil contractors. Estimators benefit from easily repeatable estimate conditions while estimate reviewers benefit from easily accessible checklists and review tools that make it easy to verify the costs and prices.
