Why Manual Cost Estimation is Risky

Budget Overruns

Underestimating the amount of steel, cement, or labour required leads to projects stalling due to lack of funds.

Lack of Transparency

Clients want to see a clear breakdown of where their money is going, which is hard to do with simple paper estimates.
