Case Study: Westphal Electric achieves smooth implementation and accurate, efficient estimating with ConEst Software

Personalized Training Services Ensure Smooth Implementation

Westphal & Co., a family‑owned electrical contractor in Wisconsin, needed to replace a 30‑year‑old estimating system after its previous vendor stopped supporting the product. After evaluating options, CEO John Westphal selected ConEst’s IntelliBid, SureCount and Electrical Formulas for their accuracy and manufacturer‑level data and chose a train‑the‑trainer approach to minimize disruption.

ConEst delivered four days of customized training for the CEO and a project manager, who then ran small, consistent sessions for field estimators with ConEst on standby for technical support. The rollout went smoothly: everyone now uses IntelliBid, estimating processes are standardized across locations, and user satisfaction is high with full fluency expected within six to twelve months.
