Description
Carlson Takeoff is a program designed for calculating cut and fill volumes and preparing data for layout or machine control, capable of estimating projects by digitizing paper plans, utilizing PDFs, or working with electronic CAD files. It is offered in two versions: Takeoff OEM and Takeoff Suite. The Takeoff OEM version includes a built-in AutoCAD® engine and has all the features of the Takeoff Suite, which requires a separately purchased AutoCAD® or comes with built-in IntelliCAD®. The Takeoff Suite consists of various modules such as Carlson CADnet, Carlson Trench, and Carlson GeoTech, along with Carlson Construction, all of which are seamlessly integrated with Carlson Civil and Hydrology to cater to diverse customer requirements. Uniquely, Carlson Takeoff stands out as the sole estimating software that operates on either the AutoCAD or IntelliCAD engine. By functioning natively within the DWG environment, Carlson Takeoff provides users with a significant "CAD Advantage" when estimating based on electronic files from engineers, enhancing both accuracy and efficiency in the estimation process. This integration simplifies workflows and improves collaboration among stakeholders involved in construction projects.
Description
Simplifying the estimation process for software, you can now choose from hundreds of extensions, templates for new builds, loft conversions, and renovations—all equipped with necessary materials and trades. All that EstimatorXpress requires from you are a few dimensions along with any specification adjustments you wish to make. Once that’s done, let the intelligent administrative tool handle the pricing in mere minutes. You'll be able to view project costs and profitability through convenient reports and graphs, all generated automatically! Furthermore, the details of your estimates can seamlessly integrate with our other software solutions, facilitating the prompt creation of Building Contracts, Health & Safety documents, and Project Management tools. The process of take-offs and drawings is equally simple. Ensure your charges are precise with our 100% accurate calculators that cover every aspect, leaving nothing overlooked. Provide your clients with comprehensive quotes and detailed cost breakdowns, complemented by impressive graphics. Additionally, you have access to an extensive selection of regularly updated materials, giving you the flexibility to choose without being tied to any single supplier. This approach not only enhances the quality of your proposals but also elevates your overall service delivery.
