What Changes for General Contractors

How It Usually Works
  • Design changes pile up faster than your team can price them
  • Tight deadlines force estimates based on incomplete information
  • Change order disputes require hours of documentation
  • Trade coordination gaps surface during construction
  • Bidding requires padding for uncertainty or accepting margin risk
With AEConnect
  • Update estimates quickly when design changes
  • Model-based estimating with automated data conditioning
  • Every assumption tracked, every change logged for disputes
  • Coordinate trade scopes with shared quantity data
  • Bid with confidence, not excessive contingency

Answer owner cost questions the same week.

Not next month. Every assumption tracked, every change logged, every number defensible.
