We will soon unveil an internet e-learning based course on the principles behind Lula Build. This online training course will provide easy access to an in-depth course on how the tendering process works and how to use our software, complete with relevant industry examples. Lula Build is a modern software suite that takes care of all tender and estimation needs of a contractor. It has been designed to make both the estimator and on-site contractor more efficient in doing their job. It not only simplifies the pricing of bill items, but it also assists contractors with cost control during project execution. Lula’s flexible approach to process modelling makes it the preferred choice for both emerging and established contractors from various spheres within the construction industry. Resources are the basic building blocks of all construction projects, and should therefore take center stage in any serious estimating software package. Users can define an unlimited list of resources tailored to the requirements of their specific projects. These clusters can be reused from one project to the next, and together with resources form the basic building blocks of the Lula Build model. Estimators can therefore start pricing a project within minutes after tender opening. Building worksheets with resources Worksheets document the scope of work of bill items. Resources and clusters, along with applicable production rates, can be embedded in these worksheets to build up the net rates of bill items. Subcontractor adjudication Lula Build simplifies the management of subcontractors by providing a module to compare, import and approve rates provided by subcontractors. Lula Build’s usefulness is not limited to the tendering phase of a project, and can play a vital role in the continuous management of any construction project. This functionality allows site agents to capture the progress of bill items on a continuous basis, as well as generating important reports such as monthly client certificates. Lula Build can provide all of this information at the touch of a button. Detailed reports can be generated for several different project dimensions throughout the lifecycle of a contract. Lula Build encourages and simplifies reuse of previously created information. Users can leverage the import capabilities of Lula to build custom tender templates for any type of project. This will strengthen standardisation within an organisation and improve the overall quality of work. Ease of use was one of the primary design goals of Lula Build, and required the use of cutting edge technologies. All user interfaces have therefore been designed with the brand new JavaFX framework, which gives Lula Build its unmatched modern look and feel. Lula Build has been successfully used to price and manage a wide variety of different projects. Our current user base includes civil, geotechnical, building, specialist and mechanical contractors. Combining our experienced engineering team with our dynamic client base enables us to meet the exact needs of the industry.
