Earthwork Cost Estimating Software

Estimating Software with Your Earthwork Takeoff Data

HeavyBid is designed to bid estimated costs and produce proposals that span across all civil industries including earthwork. Estimators commonly use our earthwork cost estimating software because it makes the estimating process easier, more accurate, and more efficient. HeavyBid’s versatility allows estimators to break complex earthwork problems into solvable pieces that accurately reflect the costs.
Earthwork takeoff is modelling how the materials will be moved and the data entry and analysis of volume and area calculations. HCSS takes your produced bid items and quantity information created from external takeoff programs and inputs that data in HCSS HeavyBid software to accurately produce an earthwork cost estimate.
Then, send your earthwork estimate data to HeavyJob to easily track your project and gather real excavation production history for future bids. Our earthwork excavation estimating and bidding software is scalable to fit your company’s needs and helps streamline your entire construction estimating process so you can get accurate bids out the door in significantly less time.

Earthwork & Excavation Software Features
Time Cards & Project Management
Everything the field and office needs to get the job done.
In 10 minutes or less a day, foremen can easily send in daily time cards, daily logs, photos, quantities, and know whether they made or lost money at the end of the day compared to the budget.
Once the field information is submitted, project managers can approve time cards, analyze production and cost performance, track RFI’s and Submittals, create T&M bills, and produce professional pay applications in minutes.




Digital Plan Management
Avoid rework by keeping everyone in sync
Instantly provide the field with everything they need to build the project including updated plans and revisions, outdated plan versions, contact directories, SWPPP reports, dig permits, specs sections, and other important information in the cloud.
Streamline communication by sending updated quantities to HeavyJob and record as-built information for owner documentation.
Plan work efficiently using earthwork specific calculators for excavation, dirt average end area, and more.
Production Planner
Turn every job into a profitable job.
Hit budget and find profit by using your current time card data with Production Planner to simulate different what-if scenarios.
Adjust your crews, hours, and production rates to quickly find the ideal plan to match or exceed expected production.
Send a completed plan to foremen so they know exactly what to do when they start their day.




Aerial Drone Support
Optimize project execution and profitability with drone mapping and reporting.
Streamline data collection and eliminate material estimating mistakes with drone mapping that captures earthwork volume measurements, progress analytics, visual inspections, and more.
Documentation and reports are generated in hours, not weeks allowing you to make data-driven project decisions and keep customers in the loop.
