Feature Focus - Production Rates:  
Benchmark’s Production Rate feature allows you to modify your productivity on a job to cater for differing site conditions.  When you do this Benchmark automatically recalculates the time it will take you to do the work and updates your estimated cost.  This saves time and eliminates errors in calculations.   Storing your standard Production Rates in Benchmark's Libraries also helps to reduce the impact of the skills shortage on your business.                                                                Read More
