Builders — estimating, drafting and contract administration capacity
We add the seats a builder's estimating, drawing and contracts office needs: estimating, drafting, contract administration and accounts — in your systems, on your hours, under your registered practitioner. Your frame and truss plant supplies the shop drawings with the frame; we do not duplicate them.

Capacity for the estimating, drawing and contracts office
Every home is priced, documented and administered before it is built, and that load sits with a builder's estimating, drawing and contracts teams. We give those teams named, managed capacity: quantities in your template, working drawings in your Revit standards, claims prepared to the statutory dates.
Payday Super began on 1 July 2026 and Victoria's Security of Payment reforms started on 15 April 2026 — payroll processing and claims administration are both heavier than they were, and both can be run offshore under your direction.
What you are probably dealing with
- Tender backlog. Estimators pricing what they can, tenders slipping, margin decisions made too late.
- Documentation bottleneck. Working drawings and permit sets waiting on one draftsperson.
- Claims dates. Under Victoria's reformed Act, a missed 10-business-day payment schedule makes the claim payable.
- Payroll load. Superannuation every payday since 1 July 2026 — more processing, tighter cash timing.
- Empty seats. Estimating and drafting roles that stay open for months.

ServiceA price in writing
A managed offshore seat costs materially less than a fully loaded Australian hire — typically a saving of 50–60% of total employment cost for the same role, once superannuation, payroll tax, WorkCover, leave loading, recruitment, software and floor space are counted. We put the seat price in writing after the scoping call.

Your questions
Can you detail our frames and trusses?
Frame and truss detailing is provided to plants, which supply the shop drawings with the frame in their own software. For builders we provide estimating, drafting, contract administration and back office.
How do we start?
A pilot on one tender. You send the set and your template; we return quantities, supplier-ready, with a query register, at a fixed fee. Compare them to your own estimator's numbers and decide.
Can you work in our estimating and project systems?
Yes — Cubit, CostX, Buildxact, PlanSwift, Procore, Jobpac and others, on a virtual desktop inside your environment.
Which states do you serve?
All of them. Western Australia gets near-full timezone overlap; our Victorian origin means NCC 2025 and the Victorian variations are second nature.
Pilot on one tender.
Send one drawing set and your take-off template. Fixed fee, agreed turnaround, quantities you can compare line by line to your own.
