- Labor Analysis: Calculate labor hours and crew requirements based on project scope, timelines, and prevailing wage rates.
- Proposal Generation: Draft clear, detailed bid proposals and present them to management or clients for review.
- Risk Assessment: Identify potential project risks, such as schedule constraints or complex installations, and factor contingency costs into estimates.
