A Bit About Me
I was raised in Midland, TX and began my construction estimating journey in my undergraduate studies at Texas Tech in 1998 by taking various construction methods courses and eventually earning my MBA in construction management from ICMT. I have worked for several earthwork & utility subcontractors & waste management companies in the DFW metroplex in Texas since 2004. I have 15 years' experience with HCSS HeavyBid, AGTEK, BlueBeam & Planswift.
WHAT SEPARATES AZLYNN ESTIMATING FROM OUR COMPETITORS?
​
Over the last 12 years I have developed a proprietary software which we utilize to compile quantities and 64 cost constraints and synthesize this bid data into a final bid proposal for our clients. The feedback using this methodology has been unanimous and continues to grow in effectiveness. Our bids are not only competitive and considered to be "in the hunt" on 20% of our total submitted proposals (which is above target) but we maintain a valuable relationship with many of our general contractors which provide detailed feedback on many proposals which helps us continually evaluate our processes and modify our cost constraints to ensure we are not only covering our costs but maintaining our target profit margin and identifying potential hazards from historical bids which we track the actual costs against the projected costs to ensure our accuracy rating remains above 98%.

Allow Azlynn Estimating the opportunity to be your estimating team and partner and you will not be disappointed. Contact us today to see how we can help your business.
