Just like all the products within the Autodesk Construction Cloud, Autodesk Takeoff sits on top of the fully integrated document management system Autodesk Docs. BIM Collaborate is typically used for the design & pre-construction side of a project, empowering teams to improve the constructability of models, increase the transparency of managing risk, and facilitate more efficient design collaboration & coordination.Īutodesk Build on the other hand is typically used on the construction side of a project, empowering office, site execution & project management teams to seamlessly collaborate on construction projects and keeping them on-time & on budget.
People need to collaborate with different people in different disciplines of an organisation, which is not always as straight forward as we’d like it to be. The covid-19 pandemic has also highlighted the challenge that individuals face when they are not working in the same location. In addition to this challenge, competition continues to increase in this space as more and more people are bidding on the same projects. As a result, the disconnected nature of 2D & 3D takeoffs can become a challenge.Īutodesk recently released its Construction Outlook report which highlights that schedules on bidding in particular, are getting tighter & tighter as we look at the data coming in from the field.
Paired with the rise of projects needing to be completed using Building Information Modelling (BIM), estimators and quantity surveyors end up using a number of different software solutions.
Traditional 2D takeoff continues to be a leading method for estimating quantities on projects, but it can be very time-consuming with scale rules, highlighter pens and spreadsheets.
