Bid more. Win more. Miss less scope.
The grind, in your words
Estimating is half reading and half deadline.
Spec books, drawings, addendums all need someone to dig through them — and by the time you’ve read everything, the bid’s due.
Scope hides in addendums.
A clause two addendums deep changes scope, a junior estimator misses it, and the bid lands without it.
Your seniors are the bottleneck.
You can hire more juniors, but every bid still routes through one or two seniors to be safe — so capacity scales linearly with their hours, not yours.
What changes when Pelles is on the project
DoubleCheck reads the bid set front-to-back so your team asks questions instead of skimming pages — every answer cited back to the source.
Compare flags every change between addendums automatically — no more missing scope buried two revisions deep.
Workflows runs your bid-review template across every package, generating a consistent first pass that your seniors then refine.
