Estimation Logistics™
8.0, a takeoff and estimating software for electrical, mechanical, plumbing,
and HVAC contractors, includes significant enhancements to the entire Logistics
suite of Estimating modules, as well as Estimation Digital Takeoff. An add-on
capability of Estimation Logistics, Digital Takeoff allows contractors to
generate takeoffs straight from digital plan files instead of paper blueprints.
Digital Takeoff allows contractors to create a takeoff by tracing a structure
on a computer screen and improves timesavings with the ability to quickly count
items and measure length and square footage in full color. The method produces
a complete estimate and captures a graphical takeoff. Enhancements to 8.0
include the ability to edit details of byproducts at the takeoff level, which
accommodates on-the-fly changes; capacity to change scope of job easily by
takeoff of connection types for hangers and risers; and ability to reapply
pressure table changes to all sections at one time for easy editing.
