Simon Young

Leveraging my expertise and training in InSite Earth Takeoff Software and my education from the Construction Estimating Institute of Florida, alongside my drone certification, I have enhanced project precision by thoroughly examining specifications, drawings, and related documents. My proficiency with software like MONDAY for generating Invitations to Bid (ITB) and HeavyBid for estimates and proposals has streamlined the estimation process, allowing for quicker response times. I have facilitated improved interdepartmental communication by supplying detailed cost analyses and justifications for project proposals.

By adopting new software tools, I have minimized the time dedicated to manual data entry through an efficient system that archives historical pricing data. My analysis of blueprints and technical specifications enables the preparation of detailed estimates for civil engineering projects, ensuring accuracy and reliability. My strong rapport with subcontractors has been instrumental in maintaining fluid communication during the bidding phase.

My skills with InSite have been pivotal in producing precise earth takeoffs and quantities. Utilizing a DJI drone, I have captured critical stages of projects, both pre-bid and during execution, providing valuable insights and oversight. My proficiency with Bluebeam and MONDAY software has further bolstered my project management capabilities, ensuring seamless communication across different departments.
