From a 10-second equipment lookup to a complete AACE estimate, to a live marketplace of real vendor prices — Kpex delivers the right tool at every stage of capital cost intelligence.
Three different questions. Three different answers. All from the same ecosystem.
Procurement check, prefeasibility conversation, field estimate. One item, three numbers, done.
Full WBS, equipment list, Z.4 location factor, CAI escalation, PDRI score and BOE report — all in one session.
Send an RFQ to verified vendors, compare offers, and pull the winning price directly into your Kpex 2G estimate.
Each product is independent — but the three together create a closed loop from quick lookup to full estimate to real market validation.
