When to choose quantity takeoff
Choose quantity-only support when your team already has rates or supplier relationships. Request pricing separately if you need an installed-cost estimate rather than a material quantity sheet.
1. Agree the measurement rules
Define units, opening deductions, assemblies and net-versus-ordering quantities.
2. Trace each quantity
Organize measured items by agreed trade, floor or phase and link them to drawing markups.
3. Prepare for pricing
Keep waste, unmeasured allowances and unresolved details visible so your rates apply to the intended scope.
