Streamline Your Takeoff Process, Faster.

Takeoff

The accuracy of estimates and bids hinges on a single crucial step: takeoff. During this process, quantities
of materials are measured, counted, and listed based on given plans.
However, relying on traditional tools like paper printouts, rulers, and calculators is inefficient. 

Takeoff, It’s the step where you measure, count and list quantities of materials based on a set of project specs.
But relying on antiquated tools like paper printouts, special rulers, and calculators can be tedious, time-consuming, and prone to error. With so many manual calculations involved, it’s easy to make mistakes when measuring from hard copies of plans. Moreover, most standalone digital takeoff solutions are way too expensive for all but the biggest subcontractors. 

Manually calculating measurements from hard copies of plans increases the likelihood of mistakes. Moreover, most digital takeoff solutions come with steep price tags beyond the reach of all but the biggest contractors.

Imagine being able to prepare your takeoff and pull the numbers into your bid instantly, without having to pay for multiple solutions or download additional apps. 

That’s exactly what PlanHub Premier’s end-to-end cloud-based solution offers. As a member, you’re granted access to a full suite of software-based tools that streamline the entire process from start to finish. It’s an easy, hassle-free way to manage your bids and takeoffs.

With PlanHub’s integrated takeoff software, registered users can do so much more than just create a library
of measurements. They now have the power to label and categorize every aspect of the project with CSI codes,
unit costs, material, labor or other distinctions. Keeping all data organized and easily accessible with just
a few clicks.

 

“The Takeoff tool is very useful, it helps to quantify the scope easier without using other tools. It quantifies volumes, areas, and counts without the need to leave PlanHub, which saves a lot of time.”

Raul Martinez, Tristate Awnings

    Estimation and TakeOff

    Let’s face it—time is money. And the more time it takes to perform takeoffs and submit bids, the more you risk losing out on valuable revenue opportunities. Manual methods and locally installed desktop software slow your takeoff process, and many digital solutions currently on the market can be overly complex and not user-friendly. 

    Build faster takeoffs, get more bids out the door, and win more projects. Forget pen and paper, outdated desktop software, and overly complicated digital takeoff solutions. PlanHub’s easy-to-use Takeoff tool helps you and your team build accurate takeoffs faster, minimize errors and material waste, and win more projects that boost your business growth. Performing your takeoffs with PlanHub allows you to:

    • Streamline and integrate your process: Perform your takeoffs in the same platform you use to manage your network and bids.
    • Avoid costly estimating errors: Get better accuracy with digital tools instead of traditional, mistake-prone pen and paper.
    • Collaborate easily: Share and work with your team, no matter where you—or they—are located.
    • Submit more bids and win more projects: Get quality bids in front of general contractors faster and get ahead of your competition.

    Document Management

    Organize, store, and manage various documents, blueprints, drawings and other information related to projects before the actual construction phase begins.

    This phase is crucial for setting the foundation of a successful construction project, and effective document management plays a significant role in ensuring that all necessary information is accessible, accurate, and up-to-date to all interested parties.

    Access, review, work on, and share large complex documents in one platform with amazing speed. From project definition, drawing management, takeoff, estimation, bid management, and contracts, everything happens in PlanHub.

    1M+ pre-qualified network

    PlanHub is the leading platform that connects companies, construction professionals, and projects in the pre-construction industry, focusing on building and developing meaningful relationships to enhance efficiency and productivity.

    We have integrated general contractors, subcontractors, and material suppliers’ workflows in one platform to simplify the complex back and forth usually present in preconstruction. By allowing all interactions to be done through PlanHub, tracking projects and relationships is much easier, saving contractors and material suppliers time and money. Interactions in the platform are tagged and measured to provide insights to users.

    General contractors create bid packages that are shared in PlanHub as projects. They can include templatized lists of all CSI cost items as part of the new Baseline feature. Baseline allows for faster and more accurate bid requests, facilitates homogenization of subcontractors’ bids, and simplifies the comparison of incoming bids.

    Subcontractors are automatically matched with relevant projects based on their profile, preferences, and pre-qualification information saving hours of research to both sides. They can review project details, documentation, and blueprints.
