Description

Piper serves as an AI operating system specifically designed for preconstruction, catering to the needs of general contractors' pursuit and estimating teams. By integrating drawings, specifications, addenda, quotes, estimates, and organizational knowledge, Piper enables teams to create detailed scopes, assess bids, and evaluate risks, with each insight traceable to its original drawing, specification clause, or addendum. Scope Generation allows teams to convert drawings, specifications, addenda, and company standards into backed trade scopes, ensuring clarity on what is expected from each trade. Bid Leveling facilitates the comparison of subcontractor bids against the defined scope, preventing the lowest price from overshadowing potential costly omissions. Final Bid Review provides a framework for assessing the estimate in relation to the actual project, allowing senior team members to focus on areas that require further evaluation. Survey functionality turns the company's accumulated experience into a consistent process, capturing valuable lessons learned from each project. It is important to note that Piper is not merely a takeoff or estimating calculator and does not substitute the critical judgment of estimators. This ensures that while Piper streamlines processes, it still values the expertise and insights provided by seasoned professionals.

Description

PriMus TAKEOFF offers an innovative solution for generating automatic construction estimates and Bills of Quantities (BoQs) from various formats such as DWG, DXF, PDF, JPG, and BMP. This quantity takeoff software enables users to swiftly and accurately derive cost estimates by extracting measurement information directly from their project files. The term "Quantity Take-Off" encompasses all the essential tasks that a quantity surveyor engages in to pull relevant metric data from a drawing, facilitating the preparation of a cost estimate based on the graphical representation of a project. It is a widely recognized international term that typically refers to software capable of obtaining measurements from drawings saved in numerous electronic formats, including DWG and DXF, or from raster images that have been vectorized. One of the standout features of PriMus TAKEOFF is its ability to integrate drawing information with corresponding cost estimate data within the DWG file, creating a seamless link between these two types of documents, a functionality that many other software solutions lack. This capability not only streamlines the workflow for quantity surveyors but also enhances accuracy and efficiency in the estimation process.
