Quantity Take-Offs and Cost Estimation
Cost Estimating Simplified with Advanced Software and Expert Insight
At ASA CMC, we support contractors with accurate and efficient Quantity Take-Offs and Cost Estimation services, enabling you to create reliable tender packages. Using advanced software like PlanSwift, Bluebeam Revu, and Kreo (AI-supported), we provide precise on-screen take-offs that help you visualize every detail and measure quantities with absolute accuracy. This eliminates errors, reduces time spent on manual calculations, and enhances project planning.
Our cost estimates follow standardized formats like CSI and NRM (1) & (2), ensuring consistency and reliability across all projects. We use reputable sources such as RSMeans, National Construction Estimator, and subcontractor quotations to generate market-based pricing for materials, labor, and equipment. Each estimate comes with a detailed breakdown, providing transparency into the costs for each item, per division, to help you stay on budget.
For subcontractors, ASA CMC provides specialized, detailed take-offs per division, with a focus on areas like lumber and electromechanical projects, including ductwork. By offering highly detailed and organized cost structures, we help streamline your procurement process and ensure that you have the most accurate pricing to guide every decision.
