EazyCA is a simple time [cost] saving solution provider for construction administration (CA). We have automated the CA process to reduce the time required to process a single submittal significantly. It currently takes a person approximately thirty (30) minutes on average to complete the full cycle from start to finish when all the actual time worked is combined [the process usual span over several days/weeks]. When EazyCA is used to Manage, Log and Report on this process, the time is significantly reduced [to about 3-5 minutes per submittal].

Building from nothing to this scale requires a founder that can go from telling you a compelling story about her market at 50,000 feet to asking whether a radio component in the hardware should be moved 3 microns to the right. If you ask me what kind of founders I gravitate to, they’re the ones who can run up and down the stack like this. You often see this quality in the best CEOs.
Who are the CEOs that gravitate to me as a partner? The ones who know and appreciate that I’m very direct. I’ll always tell you what I think. When you pitch me your idea, I’ll challenge your assumptions. When you leave a meeting, you’ll know exactly where you stand. My happiest moments in this job have always come at the end of meetings when we’ve had a conversation that really moved the needle for a company.
As a VC, it’s easy to think the biggest impact you can have is writing a check. But the best parts aren’t about the money (I know you’ve probably heard this before — but I really mean it). It’s the service you can offer. One of the big reasons I think First Round is so unique is that our partnership is really a partnership — we’re not a loosely-joined group of lone wolves. We share responsibility and decision-making, and it’s always for the benefit of founders. If a great opportunity comes my way but I’m not the one to help build it, I’ll pass it to the best person on our team. And my partners do the same.. That’s a win for the entrepreneur. And I think it’s why we’re so good at seed stage in particular.
Before First Round, I was Omidyar Network’s first venture investor and eventually led all of their technology investing. I worked at Palm, where I product managed Palm OS during the company’s heyday (that’s right, when the Palm V was cool), and started its corporate venture fund. Prior to all of that, I got my MBA from Columbia and BA from Berkeley (Go Bears!).
Construction contractors usually prepare bids or tenders to compete for a contract award for a project. To prepare the bid, first a cost estimate is prepared to determine the costs and then establish the price(s).
This involves reviewing the project's plans and specifications to produce a take off or quantity survey, which is a listing of all the materials and items of work required for a construction project by the construction documents. Together with prices for these components, the measured quantities are the basis for calculation of the direct cost. Indirect costs and profit are added to arrive at a total amount.[
Surveying or land surveying is the technique, profession, and science of determining the terrestrial or three-dimensional positions of points and the distances and angles between them. A land surveying professional is called a land surveyor. These points are usually on the surface of the Earth, and they are often used to establish maps and boundaries for ownership, locations, such as building corners or the surface location of subsurface features, or other purposes required by government or civil law, such as property sales.
Surveyors work with elements of geometry, trigonometry, regression analysis, physics, engineering, metrology, programming languages, and the law. They use equipment, such as total stations, robotic total stations, GPS receivers, retroreflectors, 3D scanners, radios, handheld tablets, digital levels, subsurface locators, drones, GIS, and surveying software.
Surveying has been an element in the development of the human environment since the beginning of recorded history. The planning and execution of most forms of construction require it. It is also used in transport, communications, mapping, and the definition of legal boundaries for land ownership. It is an important tool for research in many other scientific disciplines.

The procurement stage is when labor, materials and equipment needed to complete the project are purchased. This can be done by the general contractor if the company does all their own construction work. If the contractor does not do their own work, they obtain it through subcontractors. Subcontractors are contractors who specialize in one particular aspect of the construction work such as concrete, welding, glass, or carpentry. Subcontractors are hired the same way a general contractor would be, which is through the bidding process. Purchase orders are also part of the procurement stage
When construction vehicles are driving around a site or moving earth, a lot of dust is created, especially during the dryer months. This may cause disruption for surrounding businesses or homes. A popular method of dust control is to have a water truck driving through the site spraying water on the dry dirt to minimize the movement of dust within and out of the construction site. When water is introduced mud is created. This mud sticks to the tires of the construction vehicles and is often lead out to the surrounding roads. A street sweeper may clean the roads to reduce dirty road conditions.
Construction Management education comes in a variety of formats: formal degree programs (Two-year associate degree; four-year baccalaureate degree, masters degree, project management, operations management engineer degree, doctor of philosophy degree, postdoctoral researcher); on-the-job-training; and continuing education and professional development. Information on degree programs is available from ABET, the American Council for Construction Education (ACCE), the Construction Management Association of America (CMAA) or the Associated Schools of Construction (ASC).
According to the American Council for Construction Education (one of the academic accreditation agencies responsible for accrediting construction management programs in the U.S.), the academic field of construction management encompasses a wide range of topics. These range from general management skills, through management skills specifically related to construction, to technical knowledge of construction methods and practices. There are many schools offering Construction Management programs, including some offering a master's degree.[7][8]
Cost estimators used columnar sheets of paper to organize the take off and the estimate itself into rows of items and columns containing the description, quantity and the pricing components. Some of these were similar to accounting ledger paper. They became known as green sheets or spreadsheets.
With the advent of computers in business, estimators began using spreadsheet applications like VisiCalc, Lotus 1-2-3, and Microsoft Excel to duplicate the traditional tabular format, while automating redundant mathematical formulas
As cost estimators came to rely heavily on spreadsheets, and the formulas within the spreadsheets became more complex, spreadsheet errors became more frequent.[4] These were typically formula errors and cell-reference errors which would often lead to cost overruns. As a result, commercial cost estimating software applications were originally created to overcome these errors by using hard-coded formulas and data structures. Other benefits include the use of reference databases for costs and other data, predictable and professional looking reports, speed, accuracy, and overall process standardization.[5]
As cost estimating programs became more and more popular over the years, more advanced features, such as saving data for reuse and trade-specific calculations, have become available.[6] For example, programs that are designed for building construction, include libraries and program features for traditional builders. In sharp contrast, programs that are designed for civil construction, include libraries and program features for roadway, utility, and bridge builders.
