What’s on the agenda?

Classes, workshops and 1:1s

In this class, you’ll learn how to create and use Cost Codes, and why Catalog Items and Cost Groups are key to building an accurate estimate.

Dive a bit deeper into Estimates in this lesson and learn how to create and manage Bids and Selections – as well as how they impact your estimate, pre- and post-signing.

Round out your Estimate training by learning how to format and release the contract, and how the approval process works in Buildertrend.

Understand the impact of Bills on your Budget and how you can use the Cost Inbox from your mobile app to keep on top of expense management.

Get your clients involved with Buildertrend for better communication and clearer financials. We’re sharing best practices for using Owner Invoices and Change orders, as well as how to get your clients using these tools in their Customer Portal.

Get on the fast track to accurate estimates with our digital takeoff tools. We’ll show you how to get connected, view and edit data and understand the core principles of assemblies and parts.

Learn how to improve profitability with Bills and Purchase Orders. We’re diving deep into job costing best practices so you can save money and increase profit margins.

Use your Buildertrend data to see where your company is doing well and where it’s falling short. These insights can help you make smarter decisions and achieve the results you deserve. We’ll explore Buildertrend Business Insights, one of our Additional Services, to show you the impact data can have on your business.

This roundtable-style workshop will give you insight into how to get buy-in from your team, engage your clients and use our additional resources to ensure profitability and success.
