BRDA Electric — Customer Experience

A three-day estimate. Completed in an afternoon.

BRDA Electric reported completing a $1 million electrical estimate in one afternoon using Xkey AiE—a process that previously required three days.

Actual results depend on project complexity, estimating practices, and workload.

Your workload. Your assumptions.

What could more estimating capacity mean for your business?

Explore the value of reducing eligible repetitive estimating work. Adjust the assumptions to reflect your projects, time, and workflow.

Illustrative task-efficiency assumptions, not measured typical customer results. Customer and founder examples describe particular estimating work. Adjust workload, eligible-task share, productive use, and labor cost to your business.

Eligible tasks are repetitive drawing takeoff and counting that AiE can assist with. Exclude meetings, information seeking, scope interpretation, risk evaluation and bid strategy. The reduction applies only to the eligible share, not all working hours.

One-seat reference prices are shown above; both have a 12-month term. For multiple seats, enter your quoted total annual cost or your own clearly identified estimate. No automatic seat-price or discount assumption is applied.

Illustrative capacity-based ROI—

Recovered capacity is time made available. Capacity value is its modeled economic value when productively used. Neither is realized cash savings, incremental profit, or additional revenue.

View the assumptions and methodology

Annual team working hours: —. Eligible repetitive task hours: —.

Eligible hours = estimators × annual working hours × eligible-task share. Recovered hours = eligible hours × task-time reduction. Productively redeployed hours = recovered hours × productive-use share. Capacity value = redeployed hours × fully loaded hourly labor cost. Net capacity value = capacity value − annual subscription cost. Capacity-based ROI = net value ÷ annual subscription cost × 100; a zero subscription cost has no defined percentage ROI.

For monthly payments, enter the full annual total. The annual-upfront reference is $2,899, not $299 × 12. Cash savings require an actual reduction in expenditure; incremental profit requires separate business results.

The details behind the total

Better visibility into the numbers behind your bid.

An estimate is more than a material count. Xkey AiE connects quantities with material assemblies, labor units, and pricing so you can review the details before submitting your bid.

  • Material and labor pricingReview the costs behind your estimate.
  • Built-in assembliesConnect quantities with material components and labor units.
  • Detailed estimate breakoutsExamine the details behind the bid total.
  • Estimator review and controlApply your judgment before you submit.

Questions worth asking before you switch.
