Solving Customer Needs

How the BSE Estimator Meets CriticalCustomer Needs?

A home builder can be the best book keeper in the world, but can lose their shirt in a heart beat if they do not master the estimating side of their home building business. They can make a mistake on one project & that same mistake may have rippling effects on multiple projects if the builder can not efficiently strike the difference between actual costs and estimated costs on a given project. The BSE Estimator in unison with QuickBooks will help a builder to master the business side of their home building business.
