Overview and Functionality
STACK Construction Performance Software is one of the innovative construction preconstruction platforms built using cloud technology for the efficient and accurate digital plan takeoffs, material quantity markups, and bids estimating by general contractors, subcontractors, and construction managers. Transitioning from the conventional blueprints and spreadsheets to the advanced digital environment, STACK helps construction firms expedite their bid process, improve accuracy and streamline their estimation process.Preconstruction Workflows
First of all, the main feature of the software lies in quick visualization of plan management, allowing general contractors to make accurate linear, area, volume and count measurements. Pre-defined trade assemblies or material libraries, labor units and equipment cost items are also available.Labor Estimating, Time Tracking and Payroll Management
As a pre-construction and take-off program, STACK enables users to make realistic labor estimates as well as determine burden rates and craft rates. When the project becomes operational, the initial labor estimates provide the basis of data entry for time tracking, scheduling, and HR systems. Integrations with payroll management applications enable general contractors to match estimated labor hours with actual field time to conduct labor budgeting, comply with union rules, prepare certified payrolls, and enforce local labor laws.Integrations
