Central to these next-generation solutions is the simplification and automation of the manual, math-heavy and paper-based tasks that have traditionally made up much of the estimating process. These sophisticated tools are not just enabling estimators to do their jobs more easily in a larger sense, they are driving the evolution of the profession. Recent years have seen the arrival of powerful tools designed specifically to help professional estimators. In a recent article in “The Contractor’s Compass,” a publication of the American Subcontractors Association, PlanSwift® President James Purpura examines how technology has reshaped the estimating profession over the years – and how the latest technology is helping estimators do their work more easily. This is my website where I sell some plugins that I have build to help improve my takeoffs efficiency.As technology continues to transform the construction industry, estimators increasingly have access to new tools to help them stay on the cutting edge. If someone is interested, I have a plugin that enables and disables the escale on multiple pages at once, which for this is another time saver, and also it implementes a way if having the count items not to calculate. Unlock codes are Scripts and Plugins 1.5.1 Third Party Plugins 1.5.1.1 Concrete for Budget Takeoff 1.5.1.2 Accurate Landscape Plugin 1.5.1.3 Painting. I know this is a very complicated way of doing it, but after your takeoff is done, believe me is a time saver. You may drag and drop material and labour aggregation into your takeoff, takeoff and make estimates with only a few clicks, and then export your project into Excel file formats with this software. If it’s coloured in, it’s counted PlanSwift can load scanned plans as well as import directly from. Drawback is that only the count takeoff items would still calculate. PlanSwift is an estimating software program that makes takeoffs a breeze. After my takeoff is done and I'm asked to provide a breakdown by Floor (by page), I would disable the scale on each page, this would cancel out the quantity calculation for the page, and just leave scale enabled in the I'm going to export, and do this for every page.
I workaround that I found to accomplish this when your takeoff is not separated as described above. As the construction bidding process becomes more competitive and increasingly complex, contractors are wondering how to produce fast and accurate estimates that can help them in closing more sales and wining more construction bid contracts.
It also all depens if you have your takeoff items with child items for your Materials, because if you don't have child items for your materials then you can just use the plugin that exports your takeoff by page, and do your materials calculations in excel. If you didn't separate the takeoff by folder for every page of your takeoff, or a separate takeoff item for every page, then the reports won't be able to different your materials for every page.
