2025-06-27 9:38:41 The Benefits of Using HVAC On-Screen Takeoff Software Takeoffs are an essential part of any bid. While performing a Mecahnical Estimate ductwork takeoff is necessary, it can also be time consuming, and errors can be costly. Consider importing a digital PDF drawing file and complete a bid with Mechanical Estimating Software and On Screen Takeoff to save hours of labor and provide a paperless transfer of information. Update information and track projects, change orders and transfer information to the field digitally.

2025-06-30 13:27:21 Boost efficiency with these important estimating functions. The most important factor that will increase estimating efficiency is improving the speed and accuracy of your takeoff.  Now with the ability to import PDF and other drawing formats On-Screen Takeoff will display digital drawings and provide the ability to perform takeoff on a computer screen. Start your takeoff On-Screen and save the digital footprint for changes, addendums and additions for future modifications. Many advanced point and click functions as “Auto Routing” piping and ductwork runs during takeoff  greatly improve over takeoff speed as compared to hand takeoff.  As importantly a takeoff trail is generated from the takeoff and are included in report extensions and summaries. Takeoff accuracy is greatly improved as audit trail provides the ability to double check all items that have been entered during takeoff with reports that are automatically generated. A digital takeoff trail provides  Digital Drawing Overlay  to display additions and addendums to an original takeoff. Items are highlighted showing changes in takeoff scope. Detailed material lists are created with the digital takeoff showing accurate material lists that have been generated during takeoff. A bid summary is also generated with the digital takeoff showing labor, materials and

The most important factor that will increase estimating efficiency is improving the speed and accuracy of your takeoff.  On-Screen Digital Takeoff provides the import of PDF and other drawing formats. On-Screen takeoff will display digital drawings and provide the ability to perform takeoff on a computer screen. Many advanced point and click functions as Auto- Routing, Auto Connect of piping and ductwork runs will greatly improve the speed of takeoff.  As importantly  On -Screen takeoff will automatically produce a takeoff trail from the takeoff. A ccuracy is greatly improved as an audit trail provides the ability to double check all items that have been entered during takeoff and easily modify the original takeoff. Digital Drawing Overlay will allow additions and addendums to an original takeoff without having to reproduce the takeoff from scratch. Items are highlighted in the overlay showing changes in the original takeoff scope. Detailed material lists are created with the digital takeoff showing accurate material lists that have been generated during takeoff. A bid summary and extensions are also generated with the digital takeoff showing labor, materials and a detailed summary based on
