Over the years, Chesterfield Associates has even used B2W Estimate to develop several whole-estimate templates for recurring jobs. The capability shortens turnaround times considerably and it ensures that proposals are consistent in appearance and content, even when different estimators put them together. Grube says centralized data, importing and exporting features, and browser based reporting that provides visibility to estimates across the enterprise are additional benefits. "Between the templates, the databases and the many powerful features that make it easy to use them, B2W Estimate allows us to put out competitive, professional bids extremely quickly and with the least possible effort," Grube concludes. Support Chesterfield Associates has been impressed with continuous updates to B2W Estimate and has taken advantage of on-site training as well as training at B2W headquarters in New Hampshire. Grube says service and support have been strong points year after year. His team calls on B2W expertise primarily to make sure they maximize the capabilities and keep up with new features. He and his colleagues have also been regular attendees at annual B2W Users Conferences. "We find the conferences are helpful both with expanding our knowledge of the software and with networking and sharing best practices with other users," he adds.
