Dirt Simple Stories

AGTEK – Easy to Use, Easy to Adopt, Easy to Stay in Control

AGTEK has been around for almost 40 years – that’s longer than cell phones, longer than the internet, and longer than GPS has been an everyday technology. But what is more impressive, is that many of our customers today are the same as when we first invented digital earthwork takeoff in the ‘80s. They know that we have been on the forefront of innovation for four decades and continue to be today by utilizing UAVs, smart mobile apps, and tracking sensors to monitor the progress of the job from takeoff to signoff.

Backed by Hexagon, AGTEK has access to the latest technology platforms while working with a wide range of industry partners to make sure our solutions are compatible with all major providers. We stay current with the most sophisticated outputs, while keeping our products optimized for the Dirt.Simple. construction our customers rely on AGTEK to do.

AGTEK is Easy to Use:

AGTEK has a proven track record of helping customers utilize technology to win more work while minimizing risk and maximizing profit. Our software is used by construction operations professionals, takeoff technicians, GPS model builders, drone pilots, and project estimators. You don’t need to be a specialist or have a University degree to master AGTEK software. We have created simple routines and built-in takeoff guides to walk you through your project from start to finish. We make it easy to quickly complete multiple bid takeoffs and then pick projects back up to model and track production upon receiving the award.

Our training courses are taught by experienced industry professionals and tailored to all construction personnel – both on the jobsite and in the office. Trainings are focused around one of your real projects to make sure the technology is strategically embedded into your workflow and specific business need. These competency-based programs ensure better decision-making and improved bid accuracy while providing transparency to field operations.

Support you can rely on:

At AGTEK, we understand that the nature of support is unplanned and generally requires a specific response in a short time. Our technical support team is made up of industry professionals with decades of experience, both in construction and using AGTEK products. Our response rate is 100% and our average response time is under 15 minutes. The support team is available by phone or email and will personally work with you until your issue is resolved. We have an extensive catalogue of training videos , regular webinars, and thorough how-to instructions built into the software, but we know that nothing beats talking through a problem with a knowledgeable professional.

AGTEK is Easy to Adopt:

Time is likely your scarcest resource and is often a costly part of new product adoption. At AGTEK, we differentiate ourselves with tailored implementations, personalized training that is centered around your project data, and interactive support to help you build competency and confidence with the software.

AGTEK trainings are done using data from one of your upcoming jobs to make sure you put your software to work from day 1. We let you run the software yourself while we guide you via web conference to maximize your learning and retention. We also make sure that the person who sold you the software is the person that does your training to create accountability and a streamlined workflow.

In the initial training, we walk you through the takeoff procedure step by step. AGTEK can import all major file types, but most commonly you will start by importing the PDFs or CAD files for the project. We know CAD data can be intimidating, so we built a CAD reader into the software so that you don’t have to have an AutoCAD license or even know how to use AutoCAD to be able to utilize the CAD data in AGTEK. You will often want to use data from both your PDFs and CAD files so we will show you how to align both data sets to verify accuracy and add detail. Our technical support team also maintains licenses to all major design software used in civil construction so they will gladly help with data conversion or untangling problematic files.
