Estimator Workflow
Service Delivery Workflow Across Trades
Every service line follows the same control path: drawings are checked, scope boundaries are mapped, quantities are measured, pricing assumptions are validated, and the final deliverable is packaged with clarifications instead of hidden risk.-
Drawing QA
Confirm addenda, schedules, risers, one-lines, equipment tags, architectural backgrounds, and specification sections before takeoff.
Drawing QA log -
Trade Scope Split
Separate HVAC, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, controls, commissioning, and owner-furnished equipment responsibilities.
Scope matrix -
Quantity Takeoff
Measure duct, pipe, conduit, cable, fixtures, devices, equipment, supports, and alternates by floor, area, and CSI division.
Trade workbook -
Pricing Validation
Apply labor units, market pricing, local wage assumptions, long-lead equipment checks, and jurisdiction-specific code allowances.
Priced estimate -
Coordination Review

Cross-Trade Estimate Structure
A service hub should show how trade estimates are actually structured. This sample demonstrates the type of line-item organization used across HVAC, electrical, plumbing, BIM, and quantity takeoff projects.| CSI Div. | System | Sample line item | Quantity | Unit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 23 | HVAC | Rectangular duct with fittings and insulation Measured by pressure class and floor area. | 18,400 | LB |
| 26 | Electrical | EMT branch conduit with copper conductors Separated by feeder, branch, and low-voltage systems. | 32,000 | LF |
| 22 | Plumbing | Domestic water distribution with insulation Fixture-unit assumptions attached to the workbook. | 6,800 | LF |
| 00/01 | Bid support | Assumptions, exclusions, and scope clarification log Included with final deliverable so risk is visible. | 1 | SET |
- The service pages link into state hubs because local code and labor assumptions change the estimate.
- Resource pages support the workflow with checklists, BEP examples, and clash-resolution methods.
