Revcon, Inc., a prominent leader in specialized commercial concrete, earthwork, and utilities, has delivered top-tier construction services across the Rocky Mountain region since its founding in 1989. Headquartered in Aurora, Colorado, Revcon is known for tackling some of the most complex and high-stakes infrastructure projects in the area. To stay ahead in an increasingly competitive landscape, Revcon needed a solution to streamline its estimating process, enhancing both speed and accuracy without sacrificing flexibility or precision. Estimating Link emerged as the perfect partner, offering an intuitive and adaptable platform that meets the rigorous demands of Revcon's high-profile projects and enables the team to deliver precise, timely bids.
For RevCon, Inc., estimating projects had historically been an archaic process, relying on pen and paper. With complex projects involving multiple machines, labor crews, and fluctuating material costs, manually creating estimates often led to inaccuracies. Estimating for a project required significant time, and Cody acknowledged that he couldn’t capture all variables effectively without a comprehensive solution.
Cody explained the challenges of his old method:
"The old way was very archaic... writing down rough estimates in the field, and hoping you got it right."
Despite his experience, he recognized that this approach was no longer sufficient, particularly as the complexity of projects grew. Without a way to efficiently manage all the project variables, he risked inaccurate estimates and missed deadlines.
Seeking a solution that could handle the intricacies of civil construction projects, Cody's company turned to Estimating Link® early in their business journey. Estimating Link® provided a seamless transition into a modern approach that improved accuracy, efficiency, and confidence in bidding processes.
Implementing Estimating Link® resulted in a significant improvement in both efficiency and profitability for Cody's Earthworks. By using the software, they saw a marked increase in the accuracy of their bids, which in turn allowed them to win more competitive contracts. Additionally, Cody noted how the software’s efficiency helped him maintain a better work-life balance.
"Being able to trust in my accuracy and get bids out quickly helps me get home on time and be present for family activities like soccer practice."
Cody praised the TCLI support team for their responsiveness, noting that they quickly solved any issues, like his request to run multiple projects simultaneously across two screens.
"Your support team is fantastic—they helped me out quickly, and it made my job much easier."
RevCon has used Estimating Link® for years and cannot imagine running their business without it. With time-saving features, high accuracy, and exceptional customer support, the software has become a critical tool for the company’s success. When asked if he would recommend Estimating Link®, Cody didn’t hesitate:
"If you can run Excel, you can run Estimating Link®. It’s so easy to use—I love this program."
