Takeoff Process

A Structured Six-Step Quantity Takeoff Workflow

The exact workflow can vary by trade and project. However, these stages show a clear path from drawings to the final quantity package.

01 Review Project Drawings

Review the supplied PDF, CAD and relevant discipline drawings.

02 Confirm Takeoff Scope

Define the trades, project areas and required quantity outputs.

03 Measure Quantities

Measure the relevant areas, lengths, volumes or item counts.

04 Classify the Quantities

Organize measured items by trade, system or defined work package.

05 Review the Takeoff

Check the quantity structure against the agreed project scope.

06 Prepare Deliverables

Organize the agreed quantity report and supporting takeoff information.

Measure Items According to the Trade Requirement

Different trades use different measurement types. So, the takeoff structure can follow the items shown in the project documents.

Area Surface quantities for relevant trades.
Length Linear quantities where required.
Volume Volume quantities for applicable scopes.
Item Counts Count-based items for the defined scope.

Organize Quantities Into Clear Project Packages

After measurement, quantities can be grouped around the agreed scope. This can make the takeoff package easier to review by the project team.

By Trade Group quantities by construction trade.
By Discipline Group architectural, structural or MEP quantities.
By System Organize relevant items by project system.
By Work Package Separate defined project packages when required.
Takeoff Review

Check the Quantity Package Against the Agreed Scope

Before delivery, the takeoff can be reviewed for scope coverage and quantity organization.

Scope Coverage Check the agreed trade requirements.
Drawing Reference Review quantities against supplied documents.
Quantity Structure Check the agreed quantity organization.
Output Format Review the required delivery structure.
Drawing Revisions

Update Quantities When Project Drawings Change

Project information can change during design or tendering. Therefore, revised drawings can be reviewed within the agreed scope.

Receive Revision Review the updated project drawings.
Identify Changes Locate affected takeoff areas.
Update Quantities Revise affected measurement information.
Review Again Check the updated quantity package.

Prepare the Agreed Quantity Takeoff Package

Finally, the agreed quantities are organized for project-team review. The exact package depends on the selected takeoff scope.
