Perhaps the most difficult thing about the cabinet industry (besides finding good help) is knowing that your price is where it should be. Did I leave any money on the table? Or, did I price it too high because I lost money on the last project? And once you do get the job how long is it going to take to build it. How long does it REALLY take to build those doors? Or better yet, how many hours is it going to take to build the vanities, get them finished, and installed. You THINK you'll have them done by the end of the week, but they just seem to take longer than they should and, once again, you work through the weekend. CabinetBidPro was designed specifically to address scheduling problems in a mid-size cabinet shop doing high-end custom work in the Sun Valley, Idaho and Jackson Hole, Wyoming areas. It was written by a systems engineer who spent two years gathering times and analyzing production flow through four seperate shops. Realizing that the production manager needed accurate times for scheduling as soon as the job was landed (not waiting until it was drawn and ready for production) he set out to create software to address the problem. After ten years of development and real life testing in a variety of cabinet shops, the result is CabinetBidPro.
It's intuitive interface and well thought-out format make it by far the fastest estimating program around. But don't let the speed fool you. It is extremely accurate. Based on seperate databases for labor and materials, CabinetBidPro doesn't require you to put together an extensive library before you start bidding. Pre-loaded with data from several small to mid-sized cabinet shops you can be confident that your bid will accurately reflect the market rate. Once you start using CabinetBidPro you won't look at time the same again. CabinetBidPro helps you to focus on actual times so your bids are precise and your schedule is reliable. No more guessing.
