Got cost data from your active construction projects? Join us for an experience designed to demonstrate one of many ways to put it to work using Autodesk construction products. We have created for you in this hands-on lab a database of historic unit costs harvested from "your" Autodesk Construction Cloud Cost Management instance. Using ProEst, each attendee will be guided through use of the basic tools needed to build their first estimate. Lastly, each estimator will learn how their estimate can be sent over to Autodesk Construction Cloud Cost Management following award of their contract.

Last year, the class "Leveraging BuildingConnected to enhance your digital bid process" provided a detailed explanation of how digital bids are taking over the industry and a step-by-step guide on implementing BuildingConnected. After one full year and over 80 projects under our belt, a sequel is coming to share how to improve your process, develop new strategies, identify new uses, and learn tips and tricks. We will discuss project structure, communications, bid forms, analytics, reporting, streaming bid openings, and many more features.
Despite the world returning to face-to-face business, we've seen such success with BuildingConnected that we decided to go all-in with digital bids. No physical bids equal no more driving, no more paper, and owners and subcontractors are loving it. Jump in and let's continue fostering relationships with all stakeholders while minimizing risks for future projects.
