Case Study: Geisinger achieves faster, more accurate pre-construction estimating and an 8% hit-rate increase with ProEst

How ProEst helped a healthcare giant improve pre-construction workflow

Geisinger’s in-house Workplace Design and Delivery team — a 75-person group within the 37,000-employee Geisinger Healthcare System that runs over $200 million in annual capital projects — faced an outdated, spreadsheet-based estimating process that couldn’t scale with planned expansion. Seeking faster, more consistent estimates and seamless integration with their existing ProCore platform, they selected ProEst’s cloud-based estimating solution.

ProEst implemented its web-based estimating platform (cost estimating, digital takeoffs and bid-day analysis) to normalize workflows, provide anytime/anywhere access, and shorten estimate turnaround. As a result, Geisinger cut estimating time dramatically (multi‑million-dollar facility estimates in about 90 minutes), increased their hit rate from 24% to 32% (an 8 percentage-point gain), and positioned the team to support projected growth of up to 300% and $200–$300 million in annual projects — outcomes directly attributed to ProEst.
