About
Elecosoft Bidcon is a construction cost estimating tool that helps professionals generate accurate, detailed cost estimates and quantity take-offs to support bids, cost plans, and 5D planning workflows throughout a project’s lifecycle. It includes powerful core features such as customizable cost libraries that let users build and manage detailed breakdowns of materials, labor, plant, and subcontractor rates or import data from Excel; global search and filter tools for fast data analysis; and import/export functions that simplify moving data to and from external files. It also supports tender management by sending enquiries to multiple subcontractors and comparing responses to enhance decision-making, plus in-built templates to reduce errors and improve consistency in estimating. Advanced capabilities enable users to publish estimates to the web for authorized browser access and set user accounts and permissions for secure, controlled collaboration.

About
Mix Chapter offers an online concrete plan takeoff service for concrete contractors, estimators and other construction professionals. Users submit plans as a vector PDF, DWG or DXF and receive a private link to the takeoff and a quantities CSV. The service estimates concrete quantities by element, reinforcing steel quantities, and concrete masonry unit block and grout counts. Results are shown on the project drawings with calculation details so users can review how quantities were derived. The workflow checks drawing scale against dimensions on the plans and supports estimating and preliminary material planning. Takeoffs are estimates, not bids, and should be reviewed against project documents before materials are ordered. Access is free, with one takeoff per email address every 24 hours and up to three per company email domain each day; no account is required.
