Takeoff & Quotes

Your quote builds while you take off.

Measure drawings, capture quantities and build accurate quotes without switching between disconnected systems.

The drawing and the priced quote, open together — the measurements on the left are the quantities on the right.

01 / The old way

Stop switching between disconnected tools.

Many subcontractors measure drawings in one system, build quotes in spreadsheets and manage supplier pricing somewhere else.

The usual way

  1. Drawings
  2. Takeoff
  3. Spreadsheet
  4. Quote

Quantities get re-typed at least once, and the spreadsheet in the middle is where the version confusion starts.

With SubbieTRAC

  1. Drawing
  2. Takeoff
  3. Quote

The measurement and the priced line are the same record, so there is nothing to transcribe between them.

02 / Measure

Measure once. Use the information everywhere.

Capture quantities directly from drawings and use the same information to build your quote.

  • Markups taken straight off the drawing — linear, area and count, to scale
  • Quantities that carry into the quote instead of being re-typed
  • Markup layers kept against the drawing revision they belong to
  • Notes, RFIs and comments pinned to the spot on the drawing
  • The takeoff saved, so you can reopen it and pick up where you left off

03 / Quote builder

From quantities to quote in seconds.

Your quantities flow directly into your quote, helping you price faster and reduce manual errors.

  • Quote lines carrying the item, its Sell Rate, its quantity and its total
  • Sections with their own grand totals, for a quote that reads the way you bid
  • Options priced separately and excluded from the quote total
  • Discounts at line or quote level
  • Terms and conditions on the printed quote
  • Out to PDF or Excel when it is ready to go
The SubbieTRAC Edit Quote panel: quote lines with Sell Rate, quantity and total, a section grand total, a quote discount, an options row excluded from the total, and a terms and conditions block.
The quote itself — lines, Sell Rates, section totals, options and terms.

04 / Pricing control

Build quotes using your real pricing.

Keep your labour, materials and supplier pricing organised so every quote reflects your business.

  • Sell Rates you set, applied per quote line
  • Labour rates and material pricing held separately, priced together
  • Supplier Items carrying the price you actually buy at
  • Price history on a Supplier Item, so a rise is visible rather than absorbed
  • A reusable library of your own items and kits to price from
Supplier Items: 120 items across 8 linked suppliers, each with supplier, item code, name, unit cost and price per unit, with Price Risers & Adjustments, Price History, Quick Edit and Import/Export.
Your own rates and supplier pricing, behind every line of every quote.
