Carlson Takeoff is the first ever AutoCAD®-based site-estimating package, which allows users to generate estimates faster and more accurately then any other software package on the market. Furthermore, output capabilities to survey equipment and 3D machine control streamline the office to field process saving you time while also simplifying your software needs.
The Fastest Way to Estimate with both digitizing and CAD capabilities, Carlson Takeoff offers a "no limitations" approach to the estimator by handling both paper and electronic plans. However, the fastest way to generate an estimate is by using the electronic files or "digital plans" from formats such as DWG, DXF, or LandXML. Since Carlson is an expert on AutoCAD, they can work with these "digital files" in ways other estimating packages simply can't. Drawing files from engineers can be cleaned up and simplified for estimating in one powerful command, Drawing Cleanup. Innovated commands like Drawing Inspector check the integrity of the drawing and a host of routines like Polyline Utilities and Change Elevation, allows you to revise the drawing as easily as the engineer could. The bottom line is: the tedious work associated with other software packages to estimate from "digital plans" is eliminated, saving you countless hours of needless work digitizing.
