Case Study: EcoGreen Energy Solutions achieves streamlined takeoffs and faster, more accurate estimates with Countfire

EcoGreen Energy Solutions on streamlining takeoffs

EcoGreen Energy Solutions, a Knoxville-based energy savings company that specializes in new construction and retrofit lighting projects for hotels, was burdened by slow, error-prone manual takeoffs done in Excel that made estimating and post‑bid checks tedious. To solve this, they adopted Countfire to automate takeoff counting and manage plan markups from the start of each project.

Countfire’s automated symbol recognition and live takeoff tracking let EcoGreen upload plans, highlight a symbol once and have counts applied across drawings, improving accuracy and making revisions and architect queries far easier to resolve. With Countfire’s support they accelerated bid preparation (moving complex takeoffs that once could take days into hours), improved accuracy for project follow‑ups, and reached their annual revenue quota in seven months.
