<p>The savings come from four places you already track on your P&amp;L. Here is what catching a change before the field actually returns.</p> <p>First, idle field labor. Every week a clash sits unresolved, the work behind it stops. That is $15K to $50K in field labor standing idle, every week, per the BidLight site. Three weeks of that and you have spent more than a BidLight plan costs for the year.</p> <p>Second, the takeoff rerun. Chasing which file is current across Teams, email, and Bluebeam burns your estimating hours. BidLight publishes straight from the model in Revit and Navisworks, versions every export, and diffs it element by element, so the update lands in minutes instead of another afternoon.</p> <p>Third, the coordination meeting itself. Two hours spent finding out who moved a duct and when. Issues by 6am and a daily digest of what you own settle those questions before the room meets.</p> <p>Fourth, the estimate you give away. Turn early numbers into a service you can bill for, priced off current data from Craftsman, 1Build, and RSMeans, with BOQ classification at 86% accuracy.</p> <p>Add them up and the number stops looking like magic.</p>
