For the people who manufacture the building, not the people who assemble it on site. Span, height, loading, cladding, openings, finish and code requirements interact, and the price moves with all of them.
AltoLeap builds the quoting systems that replace those spreadsheets: around your product rules, not a generic template.
★★★★★5.0 across verified Clutch reviews · a steel buildings manufacturer quotes on a system we built ↗Most manufacturers quote this in a spreadsheet that one or two people fully understand. That makes quoting slow, makes it risky when those people are away, and makes onboarding a new salesperson a matter of months.
Span, loading, openings and finish all interact, and the price moves with each one
What is buildable lives in engineering's heads, not in the quoting tool
Takeoffs, coatings and freight get estimated from last quarter's spreadsheet
Proposals, schedules and specifications are assembled by hand after the fact
Non-standard jobs stall waiting for someone to notice they need sign-off
Quoting capacity is capped by the two people who know the rules

Steel buildings, modular units and kits configured per project.
Frames, joists, decking and assemblies priced by span and load.
Panels, roofing, glazing systems and finishes with coating options.
Made-to-order parts and assemblies sold into construction projects.
We do not build project scheduling, bid management or field software. If that is what you are after, we are the wrong firm and would rather say so here than on a call.

Quoting was slow and error-prone. We built a guided configurator, part and catalogue management, automated branded quote generation, and a multi-level approval workflow.
“They are very client-focused, completely professional, even while being very approachable and friendly.”
Four places where encoding the rules once changes what the quoting team can do.
Span and loading constraints, code requirements, and combinations your engineering team knows are impossible. Encoded once, applied on every quote, including the ones produced by whoever is covering on a Friday afternoon.
Material takeoffs, finish and coating options, freight by size and destination, and customer-specific terms. Priced from the configuration rather than from last quarter's spreadsheet.
Branded proposals with the drawings, schedules and specifications the customer needs, generated from the configuration rather than assembled by hand afterwards.
Discount thresholds and engineering exceptions routed rather than chased, so a non-standard job does not stall waiting for someone to notice it.
Tell us how you quote a building today; we confirm it's a fit.
A $2,000 fixed-price session that maps your rules, scope, risks, and a costed Phase 1, credited toward Phase 1.
Phase 1 scoped to one product family so it reaches production before the scope widens.
We support and evolve the system as your products, codes and pricing change.
The engine is the same; the rules are not. Construction products carry constraints general CPQ rarely models well: span and load relationships, code compliance, finish and coating systems, and freight that depends on physical size rather than weight alone. Those are the parts that decide whether a system fits.
Manufacturers. We build quoting, configuration and operations software for companies that make building products. We do not build project management, bid management or field software for contractors.
Yes, within limits. A configurator can price to a level of confidence that is good enough to win the job, using rules that describe what is buildable, and flag what still needs engineering sign-off. Where that line sits is a decision we make with your engineering team, not a setting in the software.
Where the product is rules-driven and your CAD system exposes an API, yes. That work is covered on our CAD drawing automation page. It is usually a second phase rather than part of the first.
Normally yes, and normally it should. Your ERP owns parts, costs, inventory and production; the quoting system consumes that and hands its output back. We have built ERP-integrated quoting in production, including a front end on Infor Baan.
Most first phases fall in the $50,000 to $100,000 range, depending on complexity, integrations and data. The AI Opportunity Blueprint is a $2,000 fixed-price way to scope it first, credited toward Phase 1 if you go ahead.
The Enrich platform was delivered in two phases. We scope Phase 1 to one product family so it reaches production before the scope widens, rather than building everything and launching nothing.
