Case Study: Carolina Site Utilities increases bid volume and saves 1–2 weeks per takeoff with Beam AI

Carolina Site Utilities saves 1–2 weeks per takeoff with Beam AI

Carolina Site Utilities, a utility contractor specializing in site work across the Carolinas, faced a significant challenge as its estimators were spending one to two weeks on each manual takeoff using PlanSwift. This slow, manual process led to missed bid opportunities and constant rework due to plan revisions. To address this, the company turned to the automated takeoff solution from vendor Beam AI.

By implementing Beam AI's AI-based software, Carolina Site Utilities automated its takeoff process. The solution delivered substantial results, saving an estimated 24 to 48 hours per takeoff. This efficiency gain allowed the team to double its bid potential and increase potential revenue by 50%, unlocking $5 million in growth without needing to hire additional estimators. Beam AI was instrumental in helping the company increase both its bid volume and win rate.
