When was the last time your takeoff and your actual build costs matched within 2%? If the answer isn't every time, the gap is happening before quantities even get pulled. I'm a construction estimator who reads Civil, Architectural, Structural and MEP together, not as separate takeoffs. If Civil shows one site condition and Architecture changes the layout, that change moves into Structural and then MEP. Catch it before quantities get pulled and the bid holds. Miss it and the numbers won't match the real build. A typical project usually starts with material takeoff where I go through the full drawing set and understand what actually exists across Civil, Architectural, Structural and MEP scopes. From there, Quantity Takeoff Specialist work is really about making sure those drawings are read together so nothing gets missed when different trades overlap in real construction conditions. That same process then moves into Material Takeoff Estimator work where quantities start taking shape into cost usable information, and eventually into BOQ preparation that ties everything together in a format contractors can actually rely on for bidding and procurement. 4+ years pricing bids for GCs across US and Canada, on drawing sets ranging from residential to commercial TI to multi trade renovation work. As a residential construction estimator I've handled everything from single family builds to larger multi trade projects, and on the commercial side I've worked office buildouts and tenant improvements. Full sets turned around in 48 to 72 hours, faster for smaller scopes. WHAT I DO •⁠ ⁠Cross check Civil, Architectural, Structural and MEP before pulling a single quantity •⁠ ⁠Flag scope gaps and drawing conflicts before they end up in the BOQ •⁠ ⁠Run quantity takeoff by CSI division, structured so contractors can use it straight for bidding •⁠ ⁠Price against RSMeans and National Estimator so the numbers reflect real regional costs •⁠ ⁠Work as a Bluebeam estimator alongside PlanSwift, Togal and Stack depending on what the client needs INDUSTRIES I HAVE WORKED WITH: •⁠ ⁠Residential construction, US and Canada •⁠ ⁠Commercial office and tenant improvement •⁠ ⁠Renovation and retrofit, multi trade •⁠ ⁠GC bid prep on mixed scope developments Available all week, with strong overlap on US and Canada working hours. Send the drawing set and I'll go through it the way it actually gets built on site, not just the way it's drawn on paper.
