We have a tried-and-true process, based upon years of experience, to custom-fit the eCaliper solution to our clients' unique requirements.
		We learn how a client performs takeoffs and estimates, then incorporate that knowledge into the installation process.
		Once this analytical phase is complete, we develop a very specific implementation plan to develop the custom-fit conversion, training, software, or reports for your construction company.

Customization Process - For our competitors, the development of custom-fit applications is simply not a part of their core business or technical competency.

		We have developed processes to properly track customization from the beginning to end. This includes tracking each request for customization in our automated customer tracking system. The request is then analyzed and a functional specification and cost estimate is developed by eCaliper for approval by the eCaliper user.
		This document becomes our road map for success. Before any programming can occur on more complex customization, we develop a more detailed level of specifications so that we know exactly where we are going before we depart.
		Once complete, the custom modification is tested thoroughly and documented, both internally and for the client. When the customization passes our rigorous testing, it is installed on the client's system and incorporated into their business processes successfully.

Benefits of a Custom Fit Application - Whether it is the training plan, the conversion or the software itself, a custom-fit approach to your business needs will enhance the overall success of your software installation process. Today's computer installations typically involve the displacement of existing technology.

		Without a custom-fit approach, it becomes difficult to utilize existing data, train users properly, or replicate processes and reports critical to daily operations in the estimating department. This can create productivity robbing business disruptions.
		This is why eCaliper is built upon a custom-fit foundation. We expect nothing less than a successful implementation of eCaliper at your business.

Customized Reports - No matter how you created your estimate, the end result is the critical factor. Normally, your reports determine the acceptance of a bid and the success of a project.

With eCaliper, you can create the documents that you are accustomed to working with and the reports that you always wanted to have.

Enhancements and New Releases - We listen to user feedback in order continually improve our products. We also track what is going on in the industry and with technology in general to identify innovative new ways to improve the estimating process.

		Our criteria include efficiency, supportability, and connectivity.
		If a new feature will benefit our clients, we will add that feature to our list of scheduled enhancements.
		eCaliper will set the bar by which all other systems will be compared. As new features are released, we will note those on our web site under a "What's New" tab.
