What is BidScreen XL?

BidScreen XL is a powerful add-in for Excel that enables users to perform takeoffs from electronic plans right within Microsoft Excel. This tool provides a comprehensive audit trail while automating the often laborious takeoff process, making it significantly more efficient. Users can easily take measurements, counts, and identify areas by simply clicking on a cell in their spreadsheet, directly referencing their digital drawings. The Excel workbook not only saves these measurements but also allows for color-coded takeoff drawings that can be edited and printed as needed. Furthermore, users have the flexibility to apply various colors, count symbols, and line styles to enhance their drawings. Included in the software are sample estimating templates tailored for general contractors, as well as specific trades like concrete, roofing, and painting. It supports DWG vector and PDF file formats, ensuring compatibility with various design sources. For precise measurements, users can snap layers to specific objects and isolate them for clarity. Additionally, with just one click, multiple takeoff files and pages can be opened simultaneously, streamlining the workflow even further. This makes BidScreen XL an invaluable tool for professionals looking to enhance their estimating accuracy and efficiency.
