Contractors and estimating teams
Bid preparation, quantity checks and document revisions create ongoing work.
DEDICATED PEOPLE. YOUR WAY OF WORKING.
Build Your Construction, CAD & Estimating Team
Recruit remote support for takeoffs, drawing updates and project documentation. Your estimating, design or project lead supplies standards and reviews work before it informs bids or construction.
Discuss my team ↗Start with one role. You interview and choose.
WHEN DEDICATED STAFFING FITS
Build around a recurring need.
Design and engineering practices
Drafting and model/document coordination need production support under qualified supervision.
Each seat needs enough recurring work, an available manager and a sustainable monthly budget. A one-off task or occasional workload may suit a project or hourly arrangement better.
Define what good work looks like.
| Workflow | Work to delegate | What your team provides |
|---|---|---|
| Estimating support | Takeoff worksheets, quote comparisons and revision notes. | Scope, measurement rules, local costs and bid approval. |
| CAD and model production | Marked-up drawings, model updates and issue lists. | Design instructions, standards and qualified review. |
| Project administration | Submittal registers, document tracking and follow-up logs. | Contract requirements and project-manager direction. |

An estimator and CAD technician can support takeoffs and drawing revisions when those needs recur. Recruit against the specific trade and software rather than a generic engineering title.
An example role combination to discuss, subject to recruitment feasibility. Start with one role if there is not enough work for two full-time people.
Get my team quote ↗What is included?
Recruitment, screening, managed workspace, standard hardware, IT, HR, payroll, attendance, leave and replacement support. Your team directs the work.
Review all inclusions and commercial terms ↗What can cost extra?
Special hardware or software, night shifts or heavy US-hours overlap, client-specific training, specialized security requirements or a dedicated manager. Confirm these along with payment, notice and replacement terms.
The current offer is a paid one-week trial, credited toward the first month if you continue. Agree the trial price and scope before starting.
Your team leads the work.
- Your licensed professionals retain design, engineering and code-related decisions. Your team approves final estimates and bids; remote preparation is not local site inspection or professional sign-off.
- Work priorities, access permissions, review and final approvals.
We handle staffing operations.
Your Remote Staff recruits against your brief, supports interviews, and arranges office and employment operations. You select the candidates, set priorities and review output.
Confirm access controls, confidentiality, IP terms and any regulated-work requirements during scoping.
Discuss security and access requirements ↗Recruit for your actual workflow.
Specify AutoCAD, Revit, Bluebeam, estimating software or your chosen tools. Include discipline, units, drawing conventions, project type and software/hardware requirements.
Make candidate assessment practical.
Use a bounded sample drawing or takeoff. Review assumptions, measurement accuracy, revision control and how candidates flag incomplete information.
Recruitment timing depends on the skills, seniority, hours and candidate availability. We discuss a realistic shortlist timeline after reviewing your brief.
A PRACTICAL START
Add capacity in stages.
Define the first role
Identify the recurring queue, expected output, manager and budget. Share tools and working hours so we can scope the hire.
Interview and onboard
Assess shortlisted candidates, agree terms and prepare access. Start with a bounded assignment your team can review.
Review before expanding
Check workload, quality and handovers. Add another role when it has clear ownership and enough continuing work.
People in your team. Support in Pune.
Your Remote Staff is operated by Salt Technologies, which has served global clients since 2012. Staff work from our managed office in Pune, India.
About the business behind your team ↗Choose the right working relationship.
A dedicated team fits work you want to manage internally. If you need a supplier to own project delivery or a complete business service, compare that requirement with a managed-service engagement.
Compare staffing and outsourcing models ↗BEFORE YOU DECIDE
Questions about your team.
Will remote estimators know our local construction costs?
Provide local cost sources, vendor quotes and estimating assumptions. Assess relevant experience, and retain final pricing and bid approval with your estimating lead.
Can a remote CAD hire sign or stamp drawings?
This page offers production support under your direction. Any licensed professional responsibility must be separately established; it is not implied by a staffing role.
Can we hire for one isolated takeoff?
Dedicated staffing suits continuing work. A single bounded takeoff may be better scoped as a project rather than a full-time monthly seat.
Can the team work US business hours?
Agree the US time zone, live overlap and shift coverage for each role before hiring. Heavy US-hours coverage or night shifts may add cost. One person does not provide round-the-clock coverage.
Bring the workload. We’ll discuss the roles.
- Trade/discipline, project types, recurring bid volume and review standards
- Required tools, experience and any specialist credentials
- Named manager, monthly budget and preferred start date
- US time zone, live overlap and data-access requirements
What happens after you enquire?
We review your requirements and discuss role fit, costs and hiring next steps. You can ask about one role or a proposed team; a larger team is not a prerequisite.
