Fast Track Estimating Software

The Fast Track Estimating software provides a fast, easy way to produce an accurate estimate and material purchase list.

The heart of the system is the list of typical residential construction tasks based on the unit costing model. The components of the job are estimated in units such as lineal feet or square feet or on a "per item" basis.

For example, 20 lineal feet of exterior load bearing wall, or 400 square feet of 4" concrete slab, or one 6'0" by 6'8" double door.

The estimating process is simple. Select items from the assembly list to include in the estimate. As assemblies are added, the standard cost for material, labor, sub-contractor and other cost is assumed. Each item can be adjusted if desired to reflect a non-standard cost.

You can build templates for common jobs, clone existing estimates, adjust assembly prices and markups as needed and enter several different tax codes. When you're done, a variety of reports are available, including Material purchase lists and labor reports. Help screens are available at every step.

The software is flexible, making it easy to deal with the variety of jobs common in construction. The software was designed by Michael Stone, a contractor who has taught estimating in 40 states and Canada. The investment is only $195.00 (USD), the benefit to your business is incalculable.

Steve -

The software you have is still current. Michael is building some quick video tutorials on using the Fast Track Estimating software - we'll let you know when those are posted online, or give me a call and I'll talk you through the software. It's really pretty easy once you understand how it "thinks".

Thank you!

Hi Devon and Michael, I have the estimating software from when you first put it out and was wondering if there were any updates to it. I never learned to use it so it sat in my drawer. I have it out and I am going to put in the time to try and figure it out. (not very fast at these kind of things). Thanks for your feedback. Steve Wittman (Past coaching client) :)
