Without the headaches.
- 01
All trades, one workbook
Your concrete, steel, framing, drywall, sitework — every line item lives in the same Excel file. No exporting, no reconciling between tools.
- 02
Sub-bid leveling
Plug your in-house quantity into the bid sheet next to the sub's number. See the variance in real time. Catch the gap before you submit.
- 03
Plan revisions caught fast
Drawing Compare highlights every change between revisions. The new room. The shifted column. The added sheet you didn't notice.
- 04
Per-license, not per-seat
License the software you need; share installer access via the customer portal. No per-user dashboards to bolt on.
Estimating directly in Excel without leaving your workflow.
BidScreen XL is a Microsoft Excel add in. Open the drawing in the same workbook your bid lives in. Trace areas, count symbols, measure lengths. Quantities land as named formulas in cells. No second app, no copy-paste, no broken links.
- Real-time totals as you trace
- Color-coded layers for each trade
- Recalibrate scale, every cell updates
- Compatible with macros and conditional formatting

The Concurrent License Manager lets multiple estimators share a pool of seats, so 5 licenses can serve 8 or 10 people who don’t all bid simultaneously.
