US: Two premier general contractors in North America, DPR Construction and Mortenson Construction, have selected Trimble GCEstimator Suite as their standard cost estimating solution for commercial building construction projects. The GCEstimator is an integrated solution that speeds the process of creating estimates for complex, deadline-intensive construction projects. The solution incorporates best-of-breed software from the Trimble Buildings portfolio of Design-Build-Operate (DBO) technologies, which enable general contractors and construction managers to increase efficiency and improve productivity on building construction projects. The Suite unifies Quantity Takeoff, Cost Estimating and Knowledge Management for contractors working with 2D plan sets, 3D BIM models or any combination of the two.
