Top New Product Winner: Maxwell Systems Quest Machine Control integrates machine control systems directly with Maxwell Systems Quest Earthwork, earth-measuring software. It's ideal for contractors doing sitework, grading and excavation, heavy/highway, or any contractors measuring cut and fill.

Top Enhanced Product Winner: Maxwell Systems Estimation Logistics helps electrical, mechanical, plumbing, and HVAC contractors by automating the bidding process and lowering costs associated with bidding and winning jobs. The solution has been enhanced to deliver Digital Takeoff, which is far more accurate than traditional manual methods, thus helps contractors to bid more work and win more projects in less time and with increased profitability. Estimation Digital Takeoff allows contractors to generate takeoffs straight from digital plan files instead of paper blueprints. Users may download plans from an online plan room, scan in plans or upload them from a CD; there's no need for a digitizer board, stylus pen, or paper blueprints.
