A ProEst Case Study
Ironhide Construction, a Lincoln, Nebraska firm specializing in pre‑engineered metal buildings, faced growing estimating demands as it expanded into construction management, design‑build and preconstruction consulting. With seven full‑time estimators producing 400+ estimates a year, the company needed a more advanced, consistent estimating solution that would integrate with its Procore construction management system and Acumatica accounting software—so Ironhide moved from Excel to the cloud‑based ProEst estimating platform.
ProEst delivered a web‑based solution with digital takeoffs, bid‑day analysis and seamless integration to Procore (and compatibility with Acumatica), enabling quick "award and upload" migrations that “typically take only a few clicks.” The ProEst implementation reduced double data entry, improved estimate accuracy and transparency for negotiated bids, and sped workflows—helping Ironhide protect margins, present live cost breakdowns to clients, and scale its estimating process as the business grows.
