At Evolve Construction, we believe in fair and flexible pricing that grows with your business. Unlike other software providers that charge monthly or per user, we charge on a per-job basis. This means you only pay when your projects are released to construction, ensuring you're never overpaying for unused licenses. Whether you're managing a few jobs or hundreds, our model scales effortlessly with your business, offering a cost-effective solution that aligns with your actual workload. Stay competitive, control costs, and enjoy the freedom to grow without limitations.

With Evolve Construction, you’re in control from day one. Our software is so intuitive and user-friendly that there’s no need for costly consultants or external experts to get your system up and running. Unlike complex legacy systems that require specialised support and weeks of setup, Evolve is designed to be simple and straightforward, allowing you to manage the entire setup process in-house. You can customise the platform to suit your needs without any technical barriers. This means faster implementation, lower costs, and a solution that’s ready to go when you are—no waiting, no hassle.

Work with the freedom of one or multiple screens. Our software adapts to your setup, making complex estimating tasks easier and more organised.

No need to waste time manually entering data. Import or export data via CSV, ensuring compatibility with other systems and simplifying data management.

Data migration from legacy systems has also been optimised to ensure a rapid and hassle-free transition.

Accelerate your estimating process with Evolve’s intuitive formula system. Our simple yet powerful formulas enable you to create detailed and accurate estimates in record time.

Gain full control over your project's costs with Evolve's Snapshot capability. Capture key moments in your estimating process by taking snapshots of your Bill of Quantities (BOQ) at various stages, such as after sales estimating or before major revisions. This powerful feature allows you to freeze and compare different versions of your estimates, making it easy to track changes, identify cost variations, and manage budgets effectively. Stay on top of every detail and make informed decisions with a clear view of your project's financial landscape.

Easily compare, import, export, and update vendor and/or item pricing. Our software empowers you to handle large-scale pricing updates with ease, saving you hours of manual work.

Attach contract, sales pricing, and estimator notes directly to items and assemblies, ensuring all essential information is in one place for easy access, reference and to auto populate PO's.

Make more informed decisions with Evolve’s Job Comparison Reporting feature. Instantly compare different jobs side by side, including detailed snapshots of costs, materials, and assemblies. Identify discrepancies, highlight cost variations, and track changes over time, providing you with full visibility into how each project measures up. Whether you're analysing similar jobs or reviewing changes within a single project, our comparison reporting ensures you stay informed and in control, optimising every job for profitability and efficiency.

Manage permissions at a granular level, ensuring your team only has access to the parts of the system they need, increasing both security and efficiency.
