Construction & Contractor Software Development
Estimating and quoting, a CRM for leads and bids, job costing, subcontractor and site tracking for contractors and builders, replacing the estimate spreadsheets and inbox follow-ups.
Where contractors lose time and margin
Most contractors run estimating in a spreadsheet that has grown for years, track leads and bids in an inbox, and find out whether a job made money weeks after it finished. Subcontractor quotes, change orders and site photos are scattered across email and phones.
Construction software does not have to be a large platform. Often the biggest win is turning the estimate spreadsheet into a quoting app with your own rates and assemblies, connected to a simple CRM and to job costing.
What we build
Estimating and quoting
Your rates, materials and assemblies in a quoting tool that produces branded proposals and tracks versions.
Construction CRM
Leads, bids, follow-ups and win rates by source and project type.
Job costing
Budget vs actual for labour, materials and subcontractors while the job is still running.
Subcontractor and supplier tracking
Quotes, insurance documents, assignments and payments in one place.
Site app
Daily logs, photos, checklists and change orders captured on site.
What it costs
DevGlim custom software projects start from $1,500, and a focused CRM typically starts from $1,500. Most contractors start with one module, usually estimating or the CRM, and add job costing and the site app later.
What you always get
- You own the source code, the data and the accounts the system runs on.
- A written scope with a price and timeline per phase before work starts.
- Working software to review at every milestone, not one reveal at the end.
- Documentation, so another team could maintain the system later.
Frequently asked questions
Can you turn our estimating spreadsheet into software?
Yes. We keep your rates, formulas and assemblies, then build a quoting tool with validation, versions and branded proposals.
Do we need a full construction management platform?
Not always. Packaged platforms suit many firms. A custom tool makes sense when your estimating method or workflow is specific, or when you only need a few pieces done well.
Can it connect to our accounting system?
Usually, yes. Costs, invoices and payments can sync with QuickBooks, Xero or your ERP.
Can site teams use it on their phones?
Yes. Daily logs, photos and checklists work on phones and tablets, including offline capture.
