01
Drawing analysis
AI reads 2D engineering drawings to understand what needs to be built — the first step of an AI quantity takeoff, with far less manual interpretation.

Coming soon
AI quantity takeoff software: from drawings to cost.
Upcoming quantity takeoff software India's bidders can use for AI-powered 3D modelling, material takeoff, material optimisation and cost estimation.
- 012D drawing
Bring in the engineering drawings for the tender.
- 023D model
Turn drawings into an interactive 3D model.
- 03Optimise material
Run a quantity takeoff from drawings and cut scrap and wastage.
- 04Cost estimate
Estimate every cost head and price your bid.
The challenge
Why bidders need quantity takeoff software
Bidders spend significant time manually interpreting engineering drawings and calculating material quantities, labour, wastage, fabrication and other project costs — making accurate estimation complex and time-consuming. Today that usually means a manual PDF drawing takeoff or AutoCAD quantity takeoff, rate analysis against schedules such as CPWD DSR rates, and a bar bending schedule or MEP takeoff where the job calls for one.
QuickTakeoff will be AI quantity takeoff software: it will read engineering drawings, build interactive 3D models, generate material takeoffs, optimise material use and produce cost estimates across every relevant cost head. Bid teams use QuickTakeoff for EPC, AEC, Infrastructure & Construction and Manufacturing, Chemicals, Mining & Metals tenders.
What's coming
From drawing to estimate: BOQ software for bidders
Turn complex drawings into structured quantities and cost estimates faster — helping bidders improve estimation accuracy, reduce manual effort and make better-informed bid pricing decisions.
02
3D modelling
Turn 2D drawings into interactive 3D models to inspect parts, assemblies and dimensions in depth.
03
Material takeoff
Material takeoffs and quantities generated directly from the drawings and the 3D model.
04
Material optimisation
Estimate the material you actually need and plan cutting and nesting to keep scrap and wastage low.
05
Cost estimation
Tender cost estimation across every cost head, so bids are priced on structured, optimised quantities.
06
BOQ & BOM generation
Structured bills of quantities and materials, ready for BOQ preparation and tender pricing.

How it will work
Bill of quantities software in four steps: drawing to bid price
Step 01
Add drawings
Bring in the engineering drawings for the tender.
Step 02
Model in 3D
AI reads the drawings and builds an interactive 3D model of the parts and components.
Step 03
Optimise & quantify
Material takeoffs are generated and material use is optimised to cut scrap and wastage.
Step 04
Cost & price
The BOQ software will give you cost estimates and a BOQ across cost heads to price your bid with confidence.

Estimation
QuickTakeoff will estimate the material a job actually needs and plan cutting and nesting so less is lost to scrap and wastage — lowering both cost and bid price.
Yes. QuickTakeoff will convert 2D engineering drawings into interactive 3D models for deeper analysis.
Yes. QuickTakeoff will work as bill of quantities software as well as a takeoff tool, generating structured bills of quantities and materials that you can use directly in tender pricing.
Raw materials, labour, scrap and wastage, manufacturing, fabrication and other relevant project cost heads.
Bidders in EPC, AEC, infrastructure and manufacturing who price tenders from engineering drawings and want faster, more accurate estimates. For contractors, it is being built as construction estimation software that India's tender teams can use from drawing to BOQ.
Bidders usually prepare the BOQ for tenders by hand: a quantity takeoff from drawings, rate analysis for each item, then entering the BOQ in GeM or on the tender portal in the format the buyer asks for. QuickTakeoff is being built to take the manual effort out of the takeoff and cost estimation, ending in a structured BOQ for tender pricing.
About QuickTakeoff
Yes. QuickBid Systems is building QuickTakeoff as quantity takeoff software that India's EPC, infrastructure and manufacturing bidders can use to price tenders from engineering drawings, with BOQ software built into the same workflow.
