From one-off tender takeoffs to a dedicated estimating specialist or a fully managed estimating pod — trained to Australian standards, backed by a registered builder with 12 years hands-on construction experience.
Instead of running the business, winning new work, or spending time with family, you're stuck doing manual takeoffs until midnight.
When too many tenders drop at once, your team gets bottlenecked. Quality drops, errors slip in, and stress levels run high.
You're forced to say 'no' to valuable builders and projects you want to win, simply because you don't have the estimating capacity to quote them.
Finding qualified estimators in Australia takes months. Salaries are high, and if the market softens, you are locked into permanent overhead.
Choose the model that fits your current business size, tender frequency, and management style.
Send us one tender at a time. Takeoff, BOQ and markups per job. No ongoing commitment.
A named specialist, recruited and trained by D&C, who works as part of your team and takes your direction day-to-day.
A D&C-managed estimating team. We run workflow, QA and delivery; you review output.
No black box. Here's exactly what happens from the moment your drawings land — to the moment you're ready to submit.
Your drawings hit our inbox or a monday.com notification fires. The job is logged automatically — no forms, no chasing, no "did you get my email?"

It lands on the board as a live job card. You can see exactly where it sits — and who owns it — at any time.
Your dedicated specialist checks the set against the drawings, confirms scope, and then splits it by line items. The same person every job.
Every quantity is measured using professional digital takeoff tools, generating layered, colour-coded markups. Verify any line item on the blueprints instantly with zero guessing. Your dedicated specialist also includes a clear list of clarifications and assumptions.
Your takeoff is structured into a clean, comprehensive BOQ spreadsheet. Every cell is mapped directly to our measurements with formulas and trade breakdowns.
Before delivery, a senior estimator cross-checks all measurements against project specifications, tender addenda, and scopes to ensure a completely waterproof set.
Receive a complete, client-ready package with the BOQ, markups, and a list of inclusions, exclusions, and assumptions—ready to submit or drop straight into your portal.
Discover how subcontractors and builders across Australia use D&C Estimate to scale their business and buy their time back.
“I just wanted to take a moment to personally thank you and your team at D&C Estimate for the incredible work and support you've provided. Nothing has ever been too hard, and you've always been there to help whenever needed. Your professionalism, reliability, and willingness to go above and beyond have made a huge difference on our projects. Honestly, if it wasn't for you and your team, I wouldn't have been able to complete some of these jobs the way we did. Your support has played a major part in our success, and I truly appreciate it. Looking forward to continuing to work together.”
