Power Takeoff is the leading tool for construction cost estimators who need fast, accurate quantities from paper or electronic drawings or laser- acquired field measurements. By combining ease-of-use with unmatched power and sophistication, this system delivers capabilities that no other program offers! Power Takeoff links quantities to any other Windows™ program with push-of-a-button simplicity, rendering it the most universal takeoff program in the world.

Basic Features
