We provide measured quantities with unit labels. If you need supplier-formatted purchase lists with sizes and ordering data, that is our Material Takeoff service.

Can you take off from Revit or BIM models?

Yes — we extract model quantities and reconcile them against the 2D set to catch model gaps before they become missing scope.

What if a drawing sheet is missing?

We flag it in the RFI list before starting and note it as an assumption in the deliverable. You decide whether to hold for the sheet or proceed.
