Case Study: JG Innovations boosts remote estimating speed and accuracy with Countfire

JG Innovations on the advantages of Countfire in a remote-working world

JG Innovations, a Wisconsin-based manufacturer of custom metal soffit enclosure systems, needed a better way to handle estimating as its team shifted to remote work. After estimator Kendra Tietz moved to a remote role, the company could no longer rely on large printed plans and manual takeoffs, so it turned to Countfire’s cloud-based automated estimating software.

With Countfire, JG Innovations was able to itemize wall-to-wall measurements, capture vertical lengths, mark fittings like end caps, and export takeoffs straight into Excel. Since adopting Countfire, Kendra completed more than 60 takeoffs in six months and saved hours of manual counting and highlighting, while also benefiting from faster support and cloud access.
