Description
In the United States, a significant 80% of construction activities revolve around design-build or negotiated contracts, which necessitate heightened collaboration at the project's outset. As a result, estimators are tasked with the challenge of producing comprehensive cost analyses with limited initial information. It is essential to deliver a thorough understanding of expenses, incorporating context and various options for exploration. The process should be streamlined from the initial concept phase to the actual commencement of the build. With Ediphi, users can create detailed estimates while requiring minimal project inputs, leveraging a vast cloud database filled with scope and historical cost information. Furthermore, Ediphi simplifies the allocation of estimated costs by asset class, aiding in the establishment of a historical cost database for future reference. This tool not only enhances the funding process for diverse projects, such as parking facilities, retail spaces, or residential apartments, but also empowers users to develop estimates that are adaptable to evolving project specifications. Should a change be needed, such as adding an extra floor or adjusting the height of a floor, Ediphi can promptly recalibrate the entire estimate to reflect those alterations effectively. Ultimately, this capability allows for a more dynamic approach to construction estimation, ensuring that all stakeholders are kept informed and agile in their decision-making processes.
