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
HeavyBid's construction estimating software allows you to create activities and bid items on the fly. You can also copy them from an estimate or a list of standard activities of work. Import bid items directly from DOT websites in order to reduce the time spent on building estimates.
HCSS inputs your bid items and quantity data from external takeoff software into HeavyBid in order to produce an accurate cost estimate.
HeavyBid has been used by estimators in 4,000+ companies including 44 of ENR's top 50 heavy civil contractors. Estimators can easily repeat the conditions for estimating, while estimate reviewers can easily access checklists and review instruments that make it easier to verify costs and prices.
