Case Study: Gardner Builders boosts bid rate and cuts estimating time with Procore Estimating

Gardner Builders boosts bid submissions to 100% and cuts estimating time from 8 hours to 2 with Procore

Gardner Builders, a general contractor, faced challenges with its outdated, multi-platform self-performed work estimating process. The fragmented system led to errors, miscommunication, and missed bid opportunities. Seeking to enhance efficiency and quality, the company turned to vendor Procore and implemented its Procore Estimating solution.

By adopting Procore Estimating, Gardner Builders centralized its takeoffs, estimates, and bids. The results were significant: estimate creation time was cut by 75%, from eight hours to just two. This efficiency boost allowed them to increase their bid submission rate from 66% to 100% of all internal requests. Procore also provided more accurate, data-driven estimates that reduced budget overruns and improved field communication.
