Case Study: Walbridge achieves faster, more accurate estimating and clearer client communication with Beck Technology's DESTINI Estimator

Test-Driving DESTINI Estimator on Actual Projects

Walbridge, a $1.5 billion ENR Top 400 general contractor with about 60 estimators, faced slow, error-prone estimating workflows built on Excel spreadsheets and struggled to communicate scope and cost clearly to non‑construction clients. Senior Estimator Taimoor Khan piloted Beck Technology’s DESTINI® Estimator (and DESTINI Profiler) as a user-driven evaluation to replace manual takeoffs, reduce spreadsheet reconciliation, and improve internal and client-facing visualization.

Beck Technology delivered an integrated solution—DESTINI Estimator’s 2D/3D takeoff, assemblies, data manager, quick filtering, and estimate comparison—backed by responsive support during the pilot. The result: far faster, more reliable estimates (eliminating hours spent fixing spreadsheets and reducing multi‑step filters to a couple clicks), single-point quantity entry that auto-populates related line items, clearer change tracking for owners, and quicker budget approvals; based on the pilot, Walbridge’s leadership endorsed a broader rollout of Beck Technology’s DESTINI platform.
