SoftList
offers flexible and accurate estimating through a
variety of user customizable features. Eliminate the
errors of manual calculations by letting SoftList
do the work for you.
SoftList
uses the details from your SoftPlan drawings as
a database of information containing items such
as walls, windows, joists, and more, and uses this
information to estimate the amount and cost of materials
needed for a project.
|
-
Labor
and waste factors can be added on a per material
basis as each material within SoftList has an
individual waste factor assigned.
-
Materials
can be counted as Time, Materials, Trade contractors
or allowances.
-
Finished
materials lists can be exported in those formats
to most major accounting packages or in an Excel
type spread sheet.
-
SoftList
allows you to link labor costs with materials.
Overtime, you can track and update these costs
to make estimates increasingly accurate.
|
| Changing
pricing is simple with the user ability to track up
to three different price quotes per material. Costs
can be imported into SoftList from whatever accounting
package your business uses by assigning an item or
part number.
Report
styles can be edited to specify information such as
columns, headings, materials listed, and totals calculated
for a report. Create a detailed report for your own
use, listing items such as markup, labor, and waste
separately, or create a summary version of this report
for client use. |

| Quote
from SoftPlan User:
"What piqued my interest? The material take-off.
I tried using another estimating program but I found
that I still had to do a lot of figuring. Plus it
was so cumbersome, time consuming and inaccurate.
But SoftPlan could look in every nook and cranny,
and give me an accurate list. I put it through a rough
test too. I drew six different wall types and placed
a wide variety of window styles and sizes - and with
a push of a button - a complete material list. No
more running out of materials or over guessing. The
SoftPlan materials list saves me time and my profit
margin has gone up by 5% - 7% in the first year. And
before it was hit and miss with my pricing per square
foot. Now with SoftPlan, a customer can come to me
with a rough sketch, and I can produce a very close
cost estimate in a day. This is getting me more work."
