Construction companies are under constant pressure to produce faster, more accurate bids while dealing with labor shortages, rising costs, and outdated estimating processes. Many teams still rely on spreadsheets, manual takeoffs, and the knowledge of a single experienced estimator, creating bottlenecks that slow business growth and reduce win rates. In this episode of The Construction Show, host Rory Bamford sits down with Michael Ding, CEO of Bobyard, to explore how AI is transforming pre-construction estimating and helping contractors bid more projects with greater speed and confidence.
