Goldenseal is an estimation program for Macintosh or Windows. It gives fast, accurate project cost estimation for construction contractors, or any business that needs to prepare bids, quotations or cost estimates.

Goldenseal helps you with every part of the estimation process:

  • Project measurements-- With "smart dimensions" you can enter a few basic measurements, and have Goldenseal calculate quantities for every item of work.
  • Project specifications-- Use a template to start with your "usual" project specs, then change anything that is different for this job.
  • Tweaks and adjustments-- You can add "one of a kind" items, add percentage "soft cost" line items, or adjust the overall project cost.
  • Customer reports-- Use the Print Forms command to print a customer estimate with any of several formats. You can even "hide" your overhead and soft costs on the customer reports, but still see them in your own reports.
  • Project management-- After you make an estimate, Goldenseal uses that info to create a bill of materials, a tool list, a labor breakdown and a simple project schedule.
  • Job cost tracking-- When you enter expenses, The Goldenseal program tracks them on an "estimate vs actual" basis, using the category breakdown that you used in the estimate.

Goldenseal also includes integrated accounting, scheduling, contract writing and project management.
