Hi, I’m Vince Hughes—owner of Steel Estimating Solutions.
I have been in this industry since I was 17 years old, so needless to say it’s in my blood. I’ve gone from apprentice to journeyman to foreman to general foreman, to running up to 160 ironworkers and doing 8 to 15 million (labor & Equipment only) in annual sales.
In 1999, after 15 years in the field, I was brought into the office and started estimating. Soon I was running that portion of the company. But there was one thing that always bothered me. Why did estimating have to be so… old-school? I knew there had to be a better way, so I started digging. I found a takeoff program I liked pretty quickly called On Screen Take Off, today there are many digital takeoff programs, and I would be happy to match you up with one that would be a good fit for your company. (The ease and quickness that these digital takeoff programs provides for doing takeoffs is unmatched.)

Metal Building Bid Wizard is an Excel-based solution that takes the guesswork out for your estimators. Similar to SEBW, it’s designed to simplify estimation at all stages of your construction project. But unlike it, MBBW is used for pre-engineered metal buildings.
