From your plans to a priced schedule, in five working days max

We produce an output csv you can import cleanly into your existing ERP

1. Send the plans

Send through a complete PDF plan set. We'll be ready with your SKUs, preferences and output format.

A plan set open in a PDF viewer, showing the cover sheet: a sheet index listing 33 drawings from site plan through to lintel fixing schedule, and an artist's impression of the finished single storey house

2. We measure

Our engine does the takeoff and marks it up on the drawing. An experienced estimator checks every measurement and signs the schedule off before it goes anywhere.

The TakeoffQS measure screen: a bracing plan with each braced wall element tagged on the drawing, and a panel to the right showing the workflow at 5 of 6, scale confirmed at 1 to 100, and a list of approved bracing elements with their areas and lengths

3. You get the schedule

Measured quantities against your own product codes, ready to price - exported as a CSV and PDF.

The material schedule export, as delivered: item code, description, usage, the merchant's own product code, quantity and unit

We're starting with a handful of customers.

We're scaling this on purpose. Right now we're onboarding a small number of foundation customers so every schedule gets the attention it needs, and we're adding capacity as we go. The plan is to take on as much of the industry's work as it wants to send us.

If you want in, get on the list now.

Turnaround

Five working days, guaranteed.

Five working days from a complete plan set and a confirmed job, single-storey and multi-unit alike. Miss it and we take $100 off the price.

Accuracy

Checked by a person. Backed in writing.

Nothing leaves here without an experienced estimator signing it off. Every schedule carries a written accuracy guarantee. The full terms sit in the engagement letter, and we'll walk you through them before you sign anything.

Get on the list.

Tell us who you are and roughly how much you'd send us. We'll come back to you as capacity opens up.

We'll only use this to talk to you about the estimating service. Nothing else.

Questions and answers

We’re onboarding a limited group of customers while we scale the team, and working through the list as capacity opens up. The first 10 get introductory pricing.

We take $100 off the price. Five working days is the outside limit, and if we miss it the discount is automatic, so you don’t have to ask for it.

Yes, it’s the same software. The difference is who drives it. Licence TakeoffQS and your own team runs the takeoffs in-house. Send the plans to TQS Services and we run them for you, in that same software, with an experienced estimator checking the result before it goes back. Some customers do both.

An experienced estimator. Our engine does the measuring, but no schedule goes out without a person signing it off.

Complete, current, legible plans. Your SKU list and required output format.

Tell us and we fix it. We stand behind our work in writing. The full terms sit in the engagement letter, and we’ll walk you through them before you sign anything.

Yes. Your plans, your SKU list and your pricing stay yours. Nothing that identifies you, your prices or your customers goes to any other customer.
