Organise the drawings
Agree a project name and sheet structure that your team can follow. Confirm the drawing issue before starting the takeoff.
Get confident
with zzTakeoff.
Practical guidance for measuring digital drawings, organising takeoffs and working with your team in the cloud. Start with the tasks your estimators need every day.
A clear path through your first project.
Measure and check
Work through areas, lengths and counts. Verify scale against a known dimension and review the quantities on a small, familiar scope.
Share a useful result
Discuss how colleagues will review the work and what the pricing team needs next. Check the report against the scope before handing it over.
Training for the way your team works.
A single estimator and a team working on the same project have different needs. We can discuss your roles, current estimating process and what you want to achieve with zzTakeoff, then focus training on those tasks.
A few useful answers.
Can you help us set up our team?
Yes. We can discuss project organisation, the people who need access and the way you want to divide and review work.
Can we use a project we are familiar with?
A suitable example from your work helps make training relevant. Use drawings you have permission to share and agree the session scope with us.
Do you support people already using zzTakeoff?
Yes. You can ask for training or workflow help without buying a new system.
