    I am a construction estimator and project manager. I have 8+ years of experience in commercial and residential construction and engineering industries. I have extensive knowledge of how to correctly read and analyze a set of plans and specifications for both project estimating and project management purposes. My software of choice for all my construction management activities is Bluebeam Revu Extreme and Planswift which I have used for quantity take offs, RFIs, submittals, redlines/as-builts, batch-linking drawings, and much more. I am both efficient and accurate when using this software and am able to bring a lot to the project by fully utilizing my skill set. Some of the few key ways I can help your construction company or project succeed: - I can accurately review the plans and specifications given to you to estimate an entire job or a specific scope, trade, or division of the project (e.g. all of the carpet for the job, all of the flooring for the job, or all of the division 9, etc). All I would need from you is your unit pricing, and I will get to work. I can also use either my own spreadsheets that I can customize for your job, or your own spreadsheets/tools if you have a preference. -I can help streamline the project management process. When issues arise in the field, I can comprehend messages from on-site workers to develop RFIs complete with sketches and pictures relating to the drawings to explain why there is a conflict/issue. -I can help your company maintain an up-to-date, accurate set of electronic as-builts. As drawings are reissued or require changes due to owner changes, architect changes, RFIs, or any other reason, I can redline the electronic as-builts so that the project team has the most up-to-date drawings at all times. -I can help review and send submittals to the design team for their review. I will review these against the drawings and project specifications to ensure the right products are being submitted, all the required documentation per the specifications is being submitted, and that all shop drawings are accurate. -I can help develop a procurement schedule to prioritize submittals by on-site delivery dates and lead times. I will develop this by reviewing the project schedule to see what dates certain materials are needed on the job site. From there, I can find out lead times and determine due dates for submittals to ensure all products arrive on-site when they are supposed to so that delays can be avoided. I have many more skills applicable to the construction industry and my talents are translatable between commercial, civil, and residential construction. If you have any questions about my abilities or if I can do a certain task, just ask! I am open to developing a system to make everything more efficient and can help you with any of your needs.

Of these three steps, your project description is where you will determine your scope of work and the specific type of construction estimating freelancer you need to complete your project. 

How much does it cost to hire a construction estimating freelancer?

Rates can vary due to many factors, including expertise and experience, location, and market conditions.
