What is Construction Takeoff?
In United States, construction is an organized but lengthy process. From a small coffee shop to a mixed use high rise building, every project has to go through a long process. Starting with surveys to architects to bidding to construction, it is well organized process which involves hundreds of people.
After the preparation of complete drawings set, the project goes public for bidding. Every contractor who wants to submit a bid should have access to the final drawings set which he/she utilizes for construction takeoffs. Construction takeoff is the process of finding and calculating the quantities of materials to be used in the construction of the particular project. It involves a detailed breakdown of each and every line item and this will be a final sheet for order list in case the contractor wins the job.
Construction takeoff consists of 36 CSI divisions from demolition to finishes. It gives the contractor and the owner a better trade wise understanding of the project requirements. Bidwin Solutions helps GCs prepare a detailed all scope estimate as well as subcontractors to prepare trade wise estimate. For example, a steel contractor will only need the steel estimate for a particular project with his own labor rates and profit margins.
Construction Takeoff Process
While understanding the process of construction takeoff, one should have a good deal of knowledge of how construction works. First of all, the contractor shares the project plans along with the scope of work with the estimator. The estimator goes through the plans and specifications and prepare an initial grasp on the type of the project. Secondly, starting with architectural drawings, he start working on the takeoff according to the trades. Let’s assume that the estimator needs to do a full scope takeoff of the project. He will start with demolition, goes to structural, then architectural and finalize it with civil plans.
After marking the quantities on construction drawings, the estimator prepares an excel spreadsheet with all the quantities mentioned and broken down according to CSI divisions.
Why Outsource your Takeoff Projects
Most of the GCs and subcontractors don’t have enough time to do estimating themselves. They have two options to keep the estimating process uninterrupted. They can hire an in-house estimator or outsource their estimating to a company like Bidwin Solutions.
In-house Estimator
Almost 5-6 years back, most of the contractors were relying on in-house estimators where they keep an eye on them and get an immediate overview of the project as well. Over the time, the contractors found out that the in-house estimators are expensive, need office space and special attention of the contractor himself. They started to find other options to get estimating done while keeping it affordable.
Outsource the estimating
Cost estimating companies like Bidwin Solutions provide a one window solutions for all the estimating needs of the contractors. We are quick and affordable. We help our clients meet short deadlines while keeping the estimating cost low. Another selling point is the review system of Bidwin Solutions. Every project is reviewed by the chief estimator before delivering to the client. He goes through each and every line item, capture issues if found and ask the estimator to resolve the issues.
After resolving all the issues and another final review by the chief estimator, the project is sent to the client. This is what makes estimates of Bidwin Solutions 100% accurate.
