Why does estimation keep eating your schedule rework after design changes bidlig
1
Estimating eats your schedule because every design change forces a new takeoff by hand. You catch the change, then hunt through the model, the sheets, the quantities and the pricing.

<p>Estimating eats your schedule because every design change forces a new takeoff by hand. You catch the change, then hunt through the model, the sheets, the quantities and the pricing. That can cost a day or two each time.</p>
<p>BidLight removes that loop. Publish the updated Revit model and the estimate updates from it. Two AI models read the geometry and metadata to classify BOQ line items at 86% accuracy, then pull current pricing from a database that costs roughly $30,000 a year to maintain, plus Craftsman, 1Build and RSMeans. You get labor, equipment, material and time costs in minutes.</p>
<p>When the architect shifts a wall or the MEP layout moves, your numbers move with it. You never start from zero, and you always work from the current model.</p>
<p>You stop chasing scattered updates and get back the hours you spent re-measuring. You also bid with a number you can defend, because it comes from the geometry.</p>
