Sweco, Europe’s leading architecture and engineering consultancy, needed a more consistent and scalable approach to cost estimation across its Industry and Energy Division in Finland.
Reliance on scattered, spreadsheet-based workflows created alignment issues between estimators and required extensive manual reviews, especially in projects where clearly defined process areas were essential for accurate results.
By adopting Aspen Capital Cost Estimator™ (ACCE), Sweco standardized its estimating practices with a systematic, volumetric methodology that supports fast, reliable early‑stage estimates. The solution improved collaboration, aligned estimates with real project data, enhancing reliability—cutting estimate development time by 50–75% and reducing costs by 40–60%.
