Question 3

What ROI can I expect?

Accepted Answer

For a typical $10M-revenue contractor (12 office and 25 field users at $21,900/year), DesignFlow Build eliminates about 53 hours of manual work per week — roughly 1.4 full-time positions — across estimating takeoff, bid scope extraction, data entry, scheduling, and reporting. Valued at fully-loaded U.S. construction wages (base salary x 1.3 for taxes, benefits and overhead; e.g. the BLS median estimator at $77,070 is about $50/hour), that is roughly $120,600/year in labor savings, or about $98,700 net of subscription — a payback of about 2.2 months (~451% first-year return on software cost). These figures count hard labor savings only; additional gains from winning more bids and faster delivery are excluded.
