Quotify
The starting point
The customer wanted to turn renovation drawings into an estimate they could assess against their own pricing experience. The session also exposed file-handling errors, so the first task was to work through the inputs with support.
A familiar roof package offered a concrete comparison: the customer had previously priced it at £18,000.
How Quotify was used
Quotify processed the proposed roofing information during the demonstration. The discussion separated the approximate £19,000 base cost from adjustable margin and contingency settings.
The customer was asked whether the base cost was in the right region. They confirmed that their previous price was £18,000. The session also covered workspace settings and plans for further training and benchmarking.
“Yes. I was going to say our price was 18.”

What came out of the review
The approximate £19,000 base estimate was £1,000 above the customer’s £18,000 comparator. Using £18,000 as the denominator, that is a difference of about 5.6%.
The comparison gave the customer a useful starting point for reviewing pricing settings and trying further project information.
Read the result in context
A supported test on one roof package
This was a comparison with the customer’s previous price, not an independently audited final project cost. The original estimate reports were not available to reconcile every line, exclusion or tax assumption.
The session included upload errors and planned follow-up training. It does not establish that the customer completed an uninterrupted, self-service quote-and-report workflow.
What another builder can take from it
Compare equivalent pricing bases. Check whether each number includes margin, contingency, VAT and the same scope before drawing conclusions from a small difference.
