Take-off from the tender documents

Problem
Every tender follows the same steps. Measure the quantities from the drawings or check the ones in the client’s bill, read the specification for materials and standards, and price each item against your rates. The take-off is retyped into the estimating tool, and the pricing logic sits in old bids and in your estimators’ heads.
What it does
YP reads the drawings, specification and tender Q&A, takes quantities from the model or measures them on the drawings, and applies your unit rates, labor norms and margins. It drafts a priced bill of quantities in your estimating tool, with each line linked to the drawing, specification clause or rate it came from.
How it works
See exactly how the work gets done.
The work starts the moment a tender arrives. A new tender in the bids inbox or project folder starts the run, and the drawings, specification, any client bill of quantities and the tender Q&A are read.
The quantities come from the building model or are measured on the drawings. Where there is a model, it gives the areas, lengths and counts per element and floor. Measurements on PDF drawings are marked on the drawing for checking.
Every item is priced with your own rates. Unit rates, labor norms and margins come from your own sheets and past bids, so the prices come from your data and not from the model.
YP drafts a question when something is unclear and does not guess. A conflict between drawing and specification, or a missing dimension, becomes a draft question for the tender Q&A, with the question deadline shown. Your estimator decides whether to send it.
Your estimator decides what goes in the bid. The estimator reviews the bid, adjusts it and finalizes it, and nothing goes to the client without their approval.
The outcome
Your estimators review a draft instead of measuring from scratch. The rates and pricing rules are written down and stay with the company.
01
Bill of quantities priced
Quantities from the model or marked on the drawings
02
Conflicts become questions
Drafted for the tender Q&A, deadline shown
03
Estimator approves
Every bid, before it reaches the client
For your numbers
YP drafts the take-off and priced bill of quantities, so your estimators bid on more tenders and raise conflicts before they become your cost.
How it runs
Designed for enterprise.
Private
Runs on your infrastructure. Drawings, prices, client and claims data never train a model.
Explainable
Not a black box. An AI auditor checks that every task was done as intended and proposes improvements.
Traceable
Every value links to the document, rule or record it came from. Every step is logged. A named person approves anything that leaves the building.
Your systems
Works in your ERP, CargoWise, policy system, GIS and file shares. Nothing is replaced.
