The Plumbing-Heating-Cooling Contractors – National Association has partnered with Harrison Publishing House’s CINX platform to offer a new cloud-based PHCC Labor Unit Database that can help contractors streamline the estimating process and prepare accurate bids.

The database includes more than 13,000 national average installation times, third-party verification of labor hours and cross-platform compatible data with a growing list of software vendors. Purchasers of the comprehensive database gain access to an in-depth material pricing format and options to create their own pricing workbook.

“This innovative cloud-based technology gives contractors an instant gateway to proven plumbing and piping installation times – anywhere, anytime – allowing them to become more efficient and more profitable,” says PHCC President Patrick Wallner. “It’s the latest addition to new products and services that PHCC is developing to help our members become the ‘contractor of choice’ in their markets.”

"We are proud to partner with PHCC to provide this new labor-unit service to its membership," said Harrison President David McPhaul. "PHCC members across the country will be able to prepare more accurate estimates and improve their project performance by accessing their labor unit costs through our industry-leading CINX platform."

The PHCC Labor Unit Database is exclusively available through the PHCC Online Store, either as a standalone product through CINX or as an add-on with several estimating software platforms.

For a limited time only, a free 30-day trial is available to experience the flexibility of the database, accessible from both desktops in the office or mobile devices on the road. Call 800-533-7694 for the free trial.
