Description
Demotek is a specialized software for estimating and takeoff designed for contractors involved in demolition and asbestos abatement. This innovative platform consolidates the entire bidding process—covering plan measurement, pricing, crew organization, waste disposal, and proposal generation—into a single cohesive tool, effectively replacing the traditional combination of Bluebeam, spreadsheets, and various disconnected applications.
Users can easily upload plans in formats such as PDF, PNG, or TIFF, which are equipped with searchable pages and instant thumbnail previews, allowing for straightforward area, length, and count takeoffs directly on the drawings, thanks to automatic scale calibration. Each scope can be priced using customized rates for materials, transport, and disposal, and users can leverage "scope circuits" that link materials, sawcuts, and disposal methods into pre-formulated unit costs, making it possible to encode a bid once and reuse it indefinitely. The crew planning feature efficiently allocates foremen, laborers, operators, and drivers, integrating burdened cost calculations into the process. Additionally, the software includes road-based disposal routing, which factors in haul cycles and tipping fees for an accurate bid, while salvage tracking helps to reduce costs by accounting for the value of recoverable materials. This comprehensive tool ultimately enhances efficiency and accuracy in bidding for complex projects.
