Looking for Quantity Takeoff/Estimating Software
Looking for Quantity Takeoff/Estimating Software
(OP)
Hey guys, first time poster here.
I am a road designer and I am looking for some new software that may help with doing quantity takeoffs and estimating.
Basically I'd like to be able to select a pay item, select a sheet number, and then be able to enter in multiple raw data obtained from CAD (like square footage) then have it convert to a quantity that will be bid on (like square yards) and then have it output a summary into a useful format (like excel). Seems like a relatively simple thing to do but gets very complicated in excel documents.
Any recommendations would be appreciated!
Thanks.

RE: Looking for Quantity Takeoff/Estimating Software
RoadRage - our company still measures and computes Take-Offs by hand. However, I did notice that the lates version of InRoads has a take off component. I am sure that ACAD has one as well; you may want to look into those.
