Case Study: Webcor Builders achieves faster, more accurate conceptual estimates with Trimble's Modelogix

Webcor Builders - Customer Case Study

Webcor Builders, a major California general contractor known for large, complex projects and innovative construction practices, faced a problem: decades of valuable project cost data were scattered, inconsistent, and hard to access, preventing accurate conceptual estimates and cross‑team collaboration. The company needed a single platform to set informed system‑level target values early in design and to identify high‑variance cost systems that posed the greatest budget risk.

Webcor implemented Modelogix to centralize and normalize historical costs, tag projects by key cost drivers, and run live, data‑driven conceptual estimates in client meetings. Within five months they cut time and effort on 40+ initial estimates, used Modelogix in 100% of client presentations, achieved benchmarking validation for over 75% of estimates, rolled the tool out to all new projects, and gained a competitive advantage in setting realistic early cost expectations and reducing budget risk.
