Version 2024.1 was released last week. I always like updates. This one is a significant one with some cool features, but I am still figuring them out. The major features are:

  • Takeoff Integration
  • Preparations to Sunset Classic ETA
  • Improve Import Quote Prices:
  • Word Bid Proposal Update
  • Estimate History Sync Automation:
  • Speed Improvements for SQL
  • Quote System Improvements
  • Maintenance Items

Also PreCon has a new feature which I just tried out yesterday. You can now see materials used in your estimate. Here is a sample below.

I can see this helpful for a purchasing agent who needs a quantity but doesn’t have access to HeavyBid. You can also search for materials. Pretty cool.

I will be doing more detail blogs and hopefully a video on this release. If you don’t know how to update your HeavyBid version give Tech Support a call and they will walk you through the steps.
