# How to order an Estimate in SiteRecon?

## With SiteRecon’s unified workflow, you can now order both takeoffs and estimates in one step. Our team delivers not just measurements, but a complete, line-item estimate tied directly to the map—complete with service items, production rates, and proposal-ready outputs. This guide explains when to order an estimate, how to place your order, and what happens after delivery.

SiteRecon now allows you to order **takeoffs and estimates in one unified workflow,** saving time, reducing handoffs, and giving you ready-to-use bids straight from the map.

Note: Estimation ordering is available to users on the Partner Plan or higher. Contact your SiteRecon Account Manager if you don’t see the option in your workspace.

### What Happens When You Order an Estimate?

When you order an estimate, SiteRecon’s team does more than just measure the site, we also generate a complete, **line-item estimate** tied directly to the map.

Here’s what you receive:

| Included in Delivery | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Completed Takeoff** | With all relevant service layers (turf, beds, edges, etc.) |
| **Mapped Service Items** | Layers broken down into estimating-ready services (e.g., mower types) |
| **Applied Production Rates** | Industry-standard or customer-provided, depending on your workspace setup |
| **Line-Item Estimate** | Including quantities, units, unit rates, and total price |
| **Proposal-Ready Output** | You can export this as a PDF or send to your CRM |

This eliminates the need to convert measurements into spreadsheet formulas or plug numbers into estimating software manually. It’s all done for you.

### When Should You Order an Estimate?

Order an estimate when you:

- Want a **fully priced bid** for a property (not just measurements)
- Need to **move fast on a proposal** and don’t have time for manual estimating
- Are training new estimators and want to set a benchmark

If you just want measurements and plan to estimate manually, you can order a takeoff only.

### How Long Does It Take?

Your estimate will be delivered within the timeline committed in your plan.

- **Partner Plan (Standard Delivery)**: Within 24 hours
- **Express Orders (if enabled)**: Faster delivery at additional credit cost
