Case Study: RTI Construction achieves 50% faster estimating and wins bigger bids with On Center Software (On-Screen Takeoff & Quick Bid)

RTI Construction beats out the big boys with On-Screen Takeoff® and Quick Bid

RTI Construction faced the common contractor challenge of repetitive data entry and slow, manual takeoffs that ate into profits and prevented fast, accurate bidding in a tight market. To overcome this, RTI turned to On Center Software, using On-Screen Takeoff® and Quick Bid to eliminate redundant work, build reusable estimating conditions, and speed up the bidding process.

Using On Center Software’s On-Screen Takeoff and Quick Bid—plus a custom, color-coded submittal database and addendum overlay workflow—RTI cut estimating time by about 50%, doubled its estimating capacity, and sped change orders while reducing risk. The company successfully bid projects like the $350,000 Arlington Public Library, began winning jobs against larger firms, and has grown roughly $1 million annually for the past five years as a direct result of the On Center Software solution.
