To succeed in the business of sheet metal and fabrication, speed and accuracy are critical for winning bids and maximizing efficiency. BuildCentrix (BCX) is leading the way with its cutting-edge 3D Blueprint Takeoff feature—a game-changer for contractors looking to streamline their field order and estimating process.
By leveraging automation and 3D modelling, BCX helps sheet metal contractors extract precise data from blueprints faster than ever before. Traditional takeoff methods often require manual calculations and multiple software tools, leading to errors, inefficiencies, and delays. BuildCentrix's 3D Blueprint Takeoffs eliminate these pain points by automatically interpreting blueprints and converting them into accurate, measurable data in seconds.
With seamless integration into the BCX platform, users can generate accurate material lists, cost estimates, and labour projections directly from a blueprint image or PDF. Ultimately avoiding costly miscalculations and rework.
One of the standout benefits of BuildCentrix's 3D Blueprint Takeoff is its ability to improve collaboration across teams. Estimators, project managers, and fabricators can access real-time data, ensuring everyone is on the same page from bid to build. BCX’s cloud-based feature also allows teams to work via cellphone, iPad or desktop, making it easier to manage projects efficiently across multiple departments.
