glazing estimating and project management software

Price the bid.
Run the job that follows.

D8Pro is a web application that commercial glass and glazing contractors use to price a bid and run the job that follows — taking off drawings, costing each scope, sending vendor RFQs, issuing proposals and tracking the work through to closeout. Built for commercial glass and glazing contractors — curtain wall, window wall, storefront, railings and the glass that goes in them.

What D8Pro does

D8Pro is a private web application for estimating and delivering commercial glazing work. Estimators, project managers and field crews use it to take off drawings, price each scope, buy material and issue proposals. The general contractors and clients they work with sign in to the same application to review a proposal, approve a submittal or track a delivery.

It is not a free trial or a consumer product. An account always belongs to a company workspace — you either set your company up or join one you have been invited to — and each company only ever sees its own bids, pricing and documents.

  • 01

    Bids & estimates

    Every invitation to bid in one place — drawings, addenda, site address, bid due dates and which general contractors you are quoting.

  • 02

    Takeoff & elevations

    Draw each frame elevation, dimension it, and generate the aluminium and glass takeoff straight from the geometry.

  • 03

    Scope pricing

    Price glass, aluminium and purchased products per scope, with labour rates, burden, overhead, markup and sales tax applied automatically.

  • 04

    Vendor RFQs

    Send requests for quote to glass and aluminium suppliers, compare what comes back, and carry vendor minimums into the estimate.

  • 05

    Proposals

    Build the proposal PDF from the priced scopes in your own branding, email it to the general contractor, and track deliveries, revisions and follow-ups.

  • 06

    Procurement & closeout

    Purchase orders, delivery tracking, submittal packages and field reports through to warranty hand-off.

Signing in with Google

What D8Pro asks your Google account for

You can sign in with Google instead of a password. You see exactly which permissions are requested on Google's own consent screen, and D8Pro only asks for the two below.

  • We never read, download or store your email, contacts, calendar or Drive files.
  • We never sell Google account data, use it for advertising, or transfer it to anyone else — and no one operating D8Pro reads it.
  • Our use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
  • You can disconnect D8Pro from your Google account at any time, and ask us to delete the data we hold for you.
openid · email · profile

Confirms who you are so we can match your Google account to your existing user instead of asking for another password. We store your name, email address and profile image URL.

gmail.sendSend only

Lets you email a proposal PDF to a general contractor from your own Gmail address, so their reply comes back to you rather than to a no-reply mailbox. It is requested on the same consent screen as sign-in; you can decline it there — or revoke it later — and still use the app with an email address and password. This permission can only send a message you composed in the app: it cannot read, search, download, modify or delete anything in your mailbox.

What you can price in it

Every Division 08 scope, on one bid

Twenty-eight CSI Division 08 sections come seeded, and you can add your own. Each scope on a bid carries its own products, labour, markup and exclusions — so a curtain wall package and a mirror package are priced by their own rules, not one blended rate.

    Curtain Wall Systems

    CSI 08 44 13

    Stick-built, unitized and structural-sealant-glazed curtain wall — taken off elevation by elevation, with the aluminium and glass quantities coming straight off the geometry.

    UnitizedStick-builtStructural-sealant
  • 02

    Storefronts & Entrances

    CSI 08 43 13

    Ground-floor framing, automatic and manual entrances and vestibules, priced per opening with their own hardware and labour.

  • 03

    Windows & Window Wall

    CSI 08 51 13

    Slab-to-slab and punched openings across aluminium, wood, vinyl and fiberglass — each with its own supplier and lead time.

  • 04

    Glass Partitions & Railings

    CSI 08 81 00

    Frameless glass walls, railings and guards priced opening-first, with install labour derived from area rather than guessed at.

  • 05

    Doors & Hardware

    CSI 08 71 00

    Hollow metal, aluminium, wood and all-glass doors with their hardware sets — as their own scope, not buried in the framing line.

  • 06

    Purchased & Subcontracted Scopes

    Buy-out

    Anything you buy in and install, or hand to another trade — defined once in the product library, then reused with only size and quantity.

How a bid moves through it

From invitation to closeout

One record carries the job the whole way — the takeoff feeds the pricing, the pricing feeds the proposal, and the proposal feeds procurement.

  1. 01

    Invitation to bid

    Log the ITB with its drawings, addenda, site address and due date, and record every GC you are quoting.

  2. 02

    Takeoff

    Draw the elevations and let the geometry produce the aluminium and glass quantities.

  3. 03

    Pricing

    Cost each scope, then apply labour, burden, overhead, markup and sales tax automatically.

  4. 04

    Proposal

    Issue the PDF in your own branding, email it from your own address, and track follow-ups.

  5. 05

    Delivery

    Purchase orders, submittals, deliveries and field reports through to closeout.

One workspace per company

D8Pro is the tool. Your company is the one whose name goes on the work — on screen, and on every document it produces.

01

Your company, your workspace

Each company that uses the app gets its own workspace. Bids, pricing, vendors, clients and documents are visible only inside it — never to another company on the platform.

Isolated per company
02

Your identity on every document

Proposals, purchase orders and RFQs carry your company name, logo, address, colours and terms. Set them once in Company Settings and every document follows.

Per-company branding
03

Roles that match your team

Estimators, project managers, accounting and field crews each see only what their role opens — and you can invite the general contractors you quote to review a proposal without giving them anything else.

Custom roles & permissions

Estimators, project managers and field crews at the glazing contractor, plus the general contractors and clients invited to review a proposal or approve a submittal.
