Gordian’s RSMeans data has been synonymous with accurate construction material, labor and equipment costs since the 1940s. Today, the construction cost database has gone digital with RSMeans Data Online.

Any Cost. Anytime. Anywhere.

RSMeans Data Online provides cloud-based access to more than 85,000 unit line items—from bricks to Bobcats to boilermakers—researched and validated for accuracy by a team of cost engineers. And the information in RSMeans Data Online is not limited to a national average; subscribers have access to costs for more than 970 locations across North America. Labor availability, market activity and basic supply and demand economics vary from place to place, influencing costs. The cost engineers behind RSMeans data account for such variability and produce verified, locally-relevant costs so subscribers can create accurate estimates.

The costs contained in RSMeans Data Online are available at several levels of detail. Estimators building line-by-line project estimates can access the precise material, labor and equipment costs they need.
