AEConcept™ Priced per project

Detailed estimates from minimal information

Generate line-item budgets in days instead of months. Build reusable assembly libraries that institutionalize your historical knowledge into permanent competitive advantage.

The Opportunity

What If Conceptual Estimates Had Real Detail?

Most organizations accept that early estimates must be shallow. They don't have to be. The same rigor that goes into final estimates can start from day one.

How It Usually Works

  • Weeks or months to produce an estimate
  • Single number with no visibility into cost drivers
  • Budget gets abandoned when design starts
  • Every similar project begins from scratch
  • Institutional knowledge stays in people's heads

With AEConcept™

  • Detailed estimates in hours, not weeks
  • Line-item visibility with traceable assumptions
  • Budget carries forward into design tracking
  • Reusable templates cover your project types
  • Historical data becomes organizational asset
The Solution

Rapid Conceptual Estimating

Parametric assemblies that generate detailed budgets from minimal inputs. Build once, use forever.

Decision Speed

Generate estimates fast enough to inform decisions. Evaluate alternatives. Respond to opportunities at the speed business requires.

Detail & Tracking

Every number has a traceable basis. When questions arise, you have answers. When scope changes, track exactly which assumptions to update.

Institutionalized Knowledge

Standardize your historical data into reusable assembly libraries. Every project makes the next one faster. Your knowledge becomes permanent advantage.

How It Works

From project parameters to detailed estimate

1 Build Assembly Library

Capture institutional knowledge as reusable parametric assemblies

2 Create Templates

Connect assemblies to project-type programming

3 Generate Estimates

Answer project questions, get line-item detail

4 Carry Forward

Assumptions flow into design-phase tracking
