Description
Carlson Takeoff is a program designed for calculating cut and fill volumes and preparing data for layout or machine control, capable of estimating projects by digitizing paper plans, utilizing PDFs, or working with electronic CAD files. It is offered in two versions: Takeoff OEM and Takeoff Suite. The Takeoff OEM version includes a built-in AutoCAD® engine and has all the features of the Takeoff Suite, which requires a separately purchased AutoCAD® or comes with built-in IntelliCAD®. The Takeoff Suite consists of various modules such as Carlson CADnet, Carlson Trench, and Carlson GeoTech, along with Carlson Construction, all of which are seamlessly integrated with Carlson Civil and Hydrology to cater to diverse customer requirements. Uniquely, Carlson Takeoff stands out as the sole estimating software that operates on either the AutoCAD or IntelliCAD engine. By functioning natively within the DWG environment, Carlson Takeoff provides users with a significant "CAD Advantage" when estimating based on electronic files from engineers, enhancing both accuracy and efficiency in the estimation process. This integration simplifies workflows and improves collaboration among stakeholders involved in construction projects.
Description
Pursuit is an innovative CRM designed specifically for construction estimators, consolidating every customer interaction, correspondence, bid date, and successful project outcome into a single platform. This tool integrates bid documents, takeoffs, and emails into a cohesive Project Brain, where all relevant materials such as drawings, specifications, soil reports, and communications are seamlessly organized in a collaborative space, allowing for automatic connections to be established. Users can easily drag and drop PDFs, specifications, emails, takeoff exports, and soil reports, which are then indexed and linked to essential project references, ensuring that important data like frost depth is connected to the relevant specification, deadlines are synchronized with the calendar, and inquiries regarding scope, quantities, and deadlines are answered with precise page references rather than vague estimates. Rather than imposing a generic sales funnel on the construction industry, Pursuit is tailored to the unique needs of construction bidding, effectively managing bid dates, RFQs, vendor quotes, follow-ups, hit rates, and all forms of correspondence while allowing estimators to maintain their own workflow. This specialized approach enhances efficiency and accuracy, fundamentally transforming how construction professionals manage their bidding processes.
