There really wasn’t any specific software for comprehensively price-estimating apartment complex renovations. So we wrote our own and called it ACE (Accurate Cost Estimating tool). Once we’ve got the Scope of Work and our Revenue Engineering, we negotiate with the general contractor to challenge both labor hours and rates. And we strategically source all materials taking pricing, availability, freight, warranties and any other issues into account. Then we let ACE show you where you come out, with a variety of outcomes based on different input scenarios. It even compares lowest price versus true value via Revenue Engineering. ACE is a very useful tool. And, in the renovation business, you know we respect the value of a good tool.
