Enjoy Total Bid Flexibility

Instantly make changes, correct errors, process addenda, do change orders, and substitute materials and specs for powerful value engineering what-if scenarios.

Comprehensive Reporting
See the data your way with AutoBid's flexible reporting capabilities. Choose from a variety of predefined report formats.

Value Engineering
Quickly make changes to your specifications to generate value engineering options. Change pressure classes, construction methods, liner types, and spin-ins to create cost-savings proposals for your clients.

Labor Adjustment Worksheet
You've taken the job off, but is that really how you'll bid it? Use the Labor Adjustment Worksheet to look at the project your way (by scopes or material specs) and then easily adjust the labor without modifying takeoff.

Global Search & Replace
Mistakes happen, and people change their minds - AutoBid-s flexible search & replace function lets you quickly change everything from item settings to scale to material types on an entire drawing or any portion you select.

User-Defined Scopes
This powerful tool allows you to break out your project any way you want with user-definable scope fields such as floor, area, or which pieces of equipment items are attached to. You can then filter TakeOff by your scope fields to generate focused reports or create alternates.

Multiple-User Estimating
Several users can work on a single bid simultaneously.

Multiple Labor Books

Labor any way you want - per piece, linear foot, weight, or any combination you prefer - and easily compare different labor methods with up to three customizable labor books.

Multiple TakeOff Methods
Whatever takeoff method you need, we've got it: graphical digitized, standard digitized, on-screen, Smart Menu, keyboard, and mouse.

Mobile TakeOff
We know you can't always work from your office.  Check out a license and do TakeOff On Screen or Audit Trail TakeOff.  Take your bid with you to the jobsite, owner meetings, or anywhere you need it.

Customer Testimonials:

"AutoBid is easy to use and corrections or modifications can be made easily. Just fast and easy."

Robert A. Metz, Estimator
Nagelbush Mechanical Inc., Ft Lauderdale, FL

"The most intriguing part of the program to us is still the fact that we can do a generic take off and then change the material to suit the application and budget."

Hermann Koechl & Marcel Zastre
Estimating Consultant & President
GM:L Ltd (GML Mechanical), Delta, BC

"One of the greatest features of your software is the ability to substitute different types of materials for costing comparisons. We had a large job recently that had a rather significant budget problem which required us to provide approximately 100 value engineering scenarios in a matter of a few days. Of course not all the items dealt with piping but at least 15 of them did. Needless to say, without AutoBid this endeavor would have been next to impossible to complete in such a short time frame. Thanks in part to QuickPen we gave the owner the required information and have been awarded this multi-million dollar project. Thanks again, QuickPen!"

Bob Howell, Estimator
