Quantity takeoff software for plans and BIM

From a drawing to a quantified project

KutchCAD is EDICAD’s quantity takeoff software for quantity surveyors, cost consultants and construction contractors. Rebuild a digital building model from imported drawings or draw the project yourself. Quantities come from the dimensions of the elements and your calculation rules.

Import DWG, DXF, PDF and scanned plans, or work with 3D BIM models. Check the scale and organise your project before assigning work items to the drawing. Keep the visual representation and quantity information together.

Quantities linked to your way of working

• Measure units, lengths, areas and volumes from the project.
• Associate work items and libraries with model elements.
• Define formulas for items that are not drawn, such as foundations below load-bearing walls.
• Prepare quantities, technical descriptions and project documents.
• Use supported connections to transfer or synchronise quantities with estimating software.

Tendering and building surveys

The SPIGAO connection supports the French tendering workflow, from identifying opportunities and importing price schedules to measuring work and preparing a response. This is a country-specific integration: ask our team about the workflows relevant to your market.

Where drawings are unavailable, a building survey can provide the basis for your model. KutchCAD supports survey workflows using compatible measurement equipment; discuss your device and connection requirements with EDICAD.
