Manually working on takeoffs with a slide rule and calculator is not only time consuming – it’s prone to mistakes. And mistakes cost more than just money.

Our On Screen TakeOff Software allows you to automatically have all of a job’s parts and materials listed, together with their quantities. This doesn’t just help you logistically – we also have a regularly updated database of parts and materials, meaning you get accurate, instant costings.

Our management software is so precise that every detail is rendered fully and is easy to see. In fact, you can zoom in and out on details from the takeoff, highlight separate details or project areas, and remove the layers to view the project piece by piece.

Then, when you’re finished, you can export the entire project to our Estimating Software for an instant estimate of all costs and materials. It certainly beats reams of paper and bunches of highlighter pens

You can never know what the future might hold, especially with construction. Yet, planning for each and every possibility is time consuming – although we have a solution for you.
