Overview
Our unique Smart Labor technology allows production to automatically adapt to change based on preset values you determine. This feature is invaluable for every trade. For example, youre a painting professional and typically paint 6 feet high walls and know your crew will be able to complete 10 feet in an hour. However, if that wall is 8 feet high, your team will need to move a ladder around, increasing the time required. The EDGE Smart Labor technology automatically calculates these adjustments for you, instantly saving you time estimating while ensuring that your estimate remains as accurate as possible.
