Estimate · track · schedule — one file

Bid like you've done it a thousand times.

Estimating templates that auto-roll CSI cost codes, track cost live, and lay out a 52-week schedule — all in one file. Quote in 30 minutes, protect your margin, and stop rebuilding the same bid across three documents.

The difference

Built to survive a real bid — not just look good in a screenshot.

Every formula, every cost code, every column earns its place — wired to win work, hold a margin, and get you through a buyout. No bloat, no filler, nothing you'll open once and never touch again.

No subscriptions. No login. One file you own, that opens in Excel and does the job.

// What makes it different
  • ONE FILEEstimate, track, and schedule without juggling three separate documents.
  • CSICost codes roll up automatically as you build the bid — Div 01 to 48.
  • MARGINEstimated, Projected, and Actual tracked side by side, live.
  • TESTEDEvery formula verified in real Excel before it ships.
  • YOURSBuy once, keep it. No subscription, no login, no expiry.
The flagship

The Estimating Workbook

One workbook that takes you from line-item bid to live cost control — without juggling separate files for the estimate, the tracker, and the schedule.

Estimating Workbook

Build the bid once. Cost codes roll up automatically, the tracker watches your margin in real time, and the schedule fills itself in. Everything's wired together so a number you change once changes everywhere it should.

Questions

Before you buy

Will it work in Excel, Google Sheets, or Numbers?

Built and tested in real Excel, where every feature works. It opens in Google Sheets too, with a print-ready proposal summary made to survive the jump. Apple Numbers handles the core sheets; a few advanced formatting touches are Excel-first. If you live in Numbers, message me before buying and I'll tell you straight.

Is this a subscription?

No. You buy the file once and it's yours. No login, no monthly fee, no account to manage. Every purchase includes a year of free updates, but nothing stops working when the year's up.

How do I get the file after I pay?

Instant download the moment payment clears, plus an email with the file. No waiting, no "I'll send it over." You're working with it in minutes.

What's your refund policy on a digital file?

Because it downloads instantly, all sales are final — same as every honest digital-template shop. That's exactly why there's a free calculator: try the build quality before you spend a dollar.

I'm a one-person shop. Is the full system overkill?

If you only need one piece, grab a single tracker for $19 — no reason to buy what you won't use. But the Complete Suite saves the most exactly when you're wearing every hat: estimating, purchasing, selections, RFIs, and start-up all in sync, for less than the five bought separately.

Can I put it on every estimator's machine?

Every purchase is a single-user license. Need it on every estimator's machine? Hit "Get a quote" and I'll set you up with a multi-seat office license — five seats, a setup call, and priority support — sized to your team. Want it branded with your logo? Same place.
