A Vision InfoSoft Case Study
Ordes Electric, Inc., led by estimator/project manager Ricky Boudoin, faced time‑consuming, error‑prone manual takeoffs and the need for precise counts and rapid revisions on medium‑to‑large electrical bids. To address these challenges they adopted Vision InfoSoft’s On‑Screen Takeoff with integration into Electrical Bid Manager to automate digital takeoff, improve scale accuracy, and streamline bid creation.
Vision InfoSoft’s solution—On‑Screen Takeoff plus Electrical Bid Manager—enabled overlaying revisions, quick edits, and direct import to estimating, which cut a recent 230,000 sq. ft. school takeoff from an expected 2–3 weeks to about a week and a half (roughly a 50% time savings). The tools improved measurement accuracy, sped bidding cycles, strengthened office‑to‑field communication, and made changes (e.g., removing fixtures on the Mellow Mushroom job) fast and simple, helping Ordes Electric produce more competitive, reliable bids.
