Developed by industry professionals this easy-to-use, easy-to-learn system incorporates documents to the required method of measurement be it MMHW, CESSM or SMM7.

It is a powerful, yet easy to use tool. Microrate uses the latest Windows technology to provide flexible output and reporting facilities with links to Microsoft Office products.
