Abstract: Estimating systems play a pivotal role in the construction industry,
ensuring that projects are completed on time, within budget, and to the required quality.
International Estimating Systems (IES) facilitate this by providing standardized,
technology-driven solutions tailored to global construction needs. This article
examines the key components, benefits, and challenges of IES, highlighting their
impact on cost management, risk mitigation, and productivity enhancement. Case
studies and current trends underline the importance of integrating advanced
technologies such as AI, BIM, and cloud computing to revolutionize estimating
practices. Recommendations for adoption and future research are also provided.
