CSMI uses computerized estimating practices to evaluate systems, square footage, and component costs of a project. This technique is applied to new construction, remodeling, tenant improvement, and property reconstruction estimates. We use standardized computer programs to interface with popular off-the-shelf computer applications. This enables our clients to manage their costs without proprietary restrictions and expensive computerized systems.

expensive proprietary systems and retraining costs.
