The SeveUp QTO Dashboard

Want to know more about QTO (quantity takeoff) software for your construction projects? In an ever-changing world of building construction, where efficiency and precision are essential, you need the most innovative tools to optimize your construction processes. What is QTO software, and how does it simplify quantity data collection and improve building construction project management? And how can you integrate it into your BIM process thanks to SeveUp?

What is QTO ?

In the AEC industry, accurate quantification of materials and costs is of paramount importance for efficient project planning, estimating, and management. This is where quantity takeoff (QTO) software comes in. Quantity takeoff software is a digital tool specifically designed to simplify and accelerate the quantification process by leveraging the information contained in your BIM models.

QTO software offers an array of advanced features to optimize quantification. It can automatically generate detailed lists of quantities by analyzing BIM models, identify relevant elements such as walls, floors, doors, windows, and structural components, to name but a few. Thanks to filtering and classification tools, quantities can also be organized and prioritized according to specific project needs.

SeveUp’s QTO solution goes beyond simple quantity extraction. It also offers advanced features such as detailed reporting, useful dashboards, and graphical visualizations. This rich quantitative information is then used for cost estimation, resource management, and informed decision-making throughout the project life cycle.

Advantages of QTO over traditional methods

When compared to traditional, manual quantification methods, QTO software offers a multitude of undeniable advantages:

Firstly, it saves considerable time by automating the quantification process. Whereas professionals used to have to spend long hours carrying out tedious calculations, QTO software can accomplish these tasks in just a few clicks. As a result, construction managers are freed from this time-consuming burden and can concentrate on the more creative and strategic aspects of their projects. Automating the quantification process therefore offers unprecedented efficiency!

Moreover, QTO reduces human error considerably. Automated calculations guarantee greater precision in determining the quantities required. This minimizes the risk of over- or underestimating materials, thus reducing additional costs and potential delays.

Thanks to the ability to pair quantities directly to BIM model elements, there is consistency between quantitative data and visual representations of the project. This close correlation greatly facilitates communication between the various project stakeholders, including architects, engineers, and building construction managers.

Another major asset of QTO is its ability to easily manage modifications and updates to the BIM model. Unlike traditional methods, where each modification would require a manual revision of all quantities, QTO software can automatically update calculations in line with changes made to the model. This ensures smooth synchronization between the BIM model and quantity data, reducing inconsistencies and confusion.

Using SeveUp for QTO with your BIM models

SeveUp’s QTO Dashboard works seamlessly with your BIM models, using the wealth of geometric data and attributes associated with each model element. It leverages this data to automatically generate detailed quantity reports and. This information is then used for cost estimation, resource management, and informed decision-making throughout the project life cycle.

1:1 correspondence between quantities and 3D models

One of the most powerful aspects of integrating QTO into BIM models is the ability to establish links between quantified elements and the 3D model. QTO software makes it possible for calculated quantities to be tagged and associated with the selected components in the BIM model.

These links between quantified elements and the 3D model offer several advantages. Firstly, they make it easier to navigate and identify quantified elements in the BIM model, allowing the quantities associated with each component to be quickly visualized. Secondly, in the event of subsequent modifications to the model, the links allow the associated quantities to be updated automatically, thus ensuring the consistency of quantitative data throughout the project.

Advantages of using SeveUp QTO software

  • Firstly, it enables precise, detailed quantification of materials and costs. Thanks to automated analysis of the BIM model, quantities can be extracted with great precision, reducing the risk of calculation errors.
  • Secondly, SeveUp’s QTO feature promotes collaboration between the various project stakeholders. Quantity information is easily shared and understood, facilitating communication between architects, engineers, contractors, and others involved in the project.
  • Thirdly is QTO’s ability to make cost estimation and resource planning easier. The precise quantities and associated data generated using QTO help construction professionals develop more reliable budget estimates and plan the necessary resources more effectively, reducing the project’s carbon footprint.

Precautions for using QTO software

Despite its many benefits, SeveUp’s QTO Dashboard has certain potential limitations and challenges. If the model contains errors or omissions, this will have an impact on the quantities calculated by QTO Dashboard. It is therefore essential to ensure the quality and integrity of the BIM model from the outset.

That’s why we recommend using the BIM Checker to check the consistency and veracity of the data in your BIM models.

Recommendations for optimizing the use of SeveUp’s QTO Dashboard on your BIM models

  • Regularly cross-check the BIM model and the quantities calculated by the QTO to detect any inconsistencies or errors. Close collaboration between construction managers and QTO users  is essential to ensure reliable results.
  • Consider the recommendations and requirements related to the use of QTO (such as dependence on the quality of the BIM model and the need for adequate training.

By following these recommendations, it is possible to fully harness the benefits of SeveUp’s QTO Dashboard for BIM models, improving quantification accuracy, collaboration between stakeholders, and efficient resource planning.
