2D Take Off - BSS Software

Work the way you think

Cubit is an estimating software package with flexible functionality that allows you to estimate the way you want.

Estimating and takeoff; one seamless process. Cubit seamlessly integrates takeoff with estimating for an all-in-one solution.

It’s all laid out in one view, meaning the information is where you want it, when you need it.

Cubit is up to three times faster than other software packages.

Takeoff quickly and accurately

Takeoff quickly and accurately

Intelligent tools that make your work easier.

Simple or complex quantity takeoffs are performed quickly and accurately by tracing directly over your imported plans,

Takeoff multiple items across multiple trades easily. Curves and complex shapes are easily handled. Speed up the process with our Auto Select tool to takeoff areas in as little as one click.

Perform quantity takeoffs from PDF, CAD (DWG, DXF), BIM (IFC), and image files.

Insights, and analysis

Insights, and analysis

Have greater control, insights, and analysis. Group similar information together to increase visibility over your jobs.

Using Cubit Estimating’s Dynamic Grouped Views quickly analyse or breakdown a job by rate codes (e.g. cost codes).

This handy feature allows you split the job across different stages and budgets, and export more detailed estimates into other workflows, like Cubit Select, Microsoft Excel, and other third-party applications.

Easily manage changes

Easily manage changes

Easily manage changes across your job and have greater control over the revision process.

Easily keep track of changes with Job Revision workflow. This enables you to handle changes within a Job, whether they are as a result of a plan change, revision to a BIM file, or changes to your estimate data.

This process offers you a better understanding of what stage your estimate is at within your overall process, so you can handle changes with confidence, control, and ease.

Template price lists and jobs

Template price lists and jobs

Create and update your estimates more efficiently. Use Cubit template price lists and jobs as the source for new estimates.

Collect pricing information and save them as template price lists (or import supplier price lists) to control how you price jobs.

You can even create template jobs that collate all your common trades and items.

3D VISUALISATION

3D VISUALISATION

Minimise errors by viewing your takeoff in 3D. Inspect your takeoff from any angle.

Make sure the estimate you produce is as accurate as possible, and inspect your takeoff in interactive 3D. Or display your BIM model in your viewport where it is fully interactive enabling you to have direct access to the data you need.

See what people are saying about Buildsoft

“Having used Buildsoft throughout my career and more recently investing in Cubit Pro for my own business, I find the software a welcome addition to a very traditional industry. Cubit Pro allows me to create Bills of Quantities at a pace incomparable to traditional take-offs; the on-screen measurement saves hours upon hours using a scale ruler, to a far greater accuracy. The software has easily paid for itself several times over in time it has saved me in measurement and costing. I would have no hesitation in recommending Buildsoft and the range of Quantity Surveying software products they provide. Cubit Pro is a game-changer.”
