PriMus TAKEOFF
ACCA Software
The solution for automatic construction estimates and BoQs from DWG, DXF, PDF, JPG, BMP. PriMus TAKEOFF is the quantity takeoff software that allows you to obtain fast and accurate cost estimates by extracting the measurement data directly from your project files. “Quantity Take-Off” indicates all the necessary operations that allow the quantity surveyor to extract relevant metric data from a drawing and proceed to the preparation of a cost estimate of what is represented graphically in a given project. It’s an international term that usually indicates a software that is also capable of acquiring measurements from a drawing saved in one of the many electronic formats (DWG, DXF) or a raster image (previously vectorized). PriMus TAKEOFF allows the quantity surveyor to save the drawing information and the relating cost estimate data in the DWG file by creating unity between the two document types that other software procedures do not support. -
