ezMTO can Increase Your Takeoff Efficiency

Material takeoffs are time-consuming processes. ezMTO eliminates the majority of the time and energy required for takeoffs.

Spend 5 minutes uploading your iso package instead of 8 hours manually doing the takeoff

A takeoff only requires 5 minutes of setup whether it is 10 isos or 100 isos

Eliminate 97% of the turnaround time on a material takeoff and get it out for bid faster

Simple, Straight-Forward Cost Savings

Decrease your Overhead and Increase Annual Savings

Dedicated takeoff teams are incredibly expensive and require significant resources to support

Expensive employees such as estimators and engineers have significantly higher impact uses of their time than manual takeoffs

*This is an estimate that assumes an average salary of $35 for the employee conducting the takeoff and an average of 1000 isos per month.

Quality Control

Questionable results from our takeoff program are automatically flagged so that your estimators can handle them as necessary.

In this example, you can see that a line was missing a value for quantity. ezMTO highlighted it red for review by your estimators.
