Leverage technology to optimize quantity take-off with model-based extraction, trade-wise BOQ generation, LOD-based verification, and more, ensuring accuracy and cost-efficiency.
In today’s construction projects, quantity take-off and estimation remain one of the most challenging tasks for EPC contractors, infrastructure developers, and project managers. The increasing scale and complexity of projects, coupled with tighter budgets and timelines, leave little room for error when it comes to calculating and verifying project quantities. Yet, many companies still rely on outdated manual processes, leading to discrepancies and costly mistakes.
Key Challenges:
Traditional manual methods of quantity take-off lead to errors and inefficiencies, which slow down the entire project. With the increasing complexity of BIM models, extracting quantities manually is not only outdated but also prone to inaccuracies.
Modern projects often involve multiple stakeholders with different roles. Coordinating and aligning the quantity take-off across different teams becomes increasingly difficult, especially with the added challenge of ensuring the quantities are accurate and align with the project’s evolving scope.
Inaccurate quantity take-offs can result in significant cost overruns during construction, leading to client dissatisfaction and damaged reputations. Without the proper tools and processes, these errors can often be discovered too late in the project lifecycle.
Skilled quantity surveyors and estimators are often in short supply and costly. In many cases, firms are left with the choice of either hiring full-time expensive experts or relying on less qualified staff, both of which come with their own set of challenges.
Traditional methods lack real-time updates, which makes tracking and validating quantities a challenge. As a result, discrepancies between the planned quantities and the actual quantities discovered during construction frequently occur, causing rework and delays.
At DGTRA, we address these challenges head-on. Our Quantity Take-off Services integrate advanced BIM technologies with innovative workflows to streamline the entire process, ensuring accurate, real-time quantity extraction, and significantly reducing errors and cost overruns.
We offer the following solutions as part of our Quantity Take-off Services
We leverage Building Information Modeling (BIM) to extract quantities directly from 3D models. This automated extraction ensures high accuracy and significantly reduces the risk of errors typically seen in manual take-offs.
Our team continuously validates quantities against project specifications and construction drawings. If any discrepancies are found, we document them in a change log and ensure that all stakeholders are promptly updated.
Our trade-wise BOQ (Bill of Quantities) generation separates the quantities into distinct trades, allowing more accurate cost estimation and project management.
Using Level of Detail (LOD)-based verification, we ensure that the quantities extracted from the models meet the project’s requirements.
We provide detailed estimation reports that break down quantities by trade, phase, or activity, providing clients with clear, actionable data.
Our professionals bring expertise in leading digital tools. Tools are procured per project needs, ensuring agile and cost-effective delivery.
