  • Attention to Detail : Accuracy is vital; even minor errors can lead to significant financial impacts. Meticulous attention to detail ensures all factors and potential costs are considered, reducing the risk of omissions and mistakes.
  • Technical Knowledge : Familiarity with industry standards, construction practices, and specialized estimation software (e.g., Microsoft Project, Bluebeam, AutoCAD) is necessary for accurate forecasting and compliance.
