BOYNTON BEACH, FL / ACCESS Newswire / May 6, 2026 / Estimating Edge, developer of the leading estimating software The EDGE® and a Foundation Software company, has published a new resource on why training - and not just software alone - determines how much value estimating teams get from construction bidding software.

Many estimating teams implement bidding software but continue to navigate manual workarounds - because without structured training, inconsistent workflows and early-stage errors can undermine the software's potential.

The article covers a range of training considerations for teams adopting or refining their use of estimating software, including:

• What effective training looks like, from onboarding to role-specific sessions

• Why shared training standards reduce friction across estimating teams

• How well-trained teams handle deadline pressure and scope changes

Structured training is often what separates teams that have estimating software from teams that get results from it.

Estimating teams ready to close that gap can explore what effective training looks like at each stage by reading the full article here.
