THE PLATFORM

Five parts that read the same sheet

The reading gives the quantity, the quantity gives the estimate, the estimate gives the tender. Every part rests on the same drawing, so a number at the end of the chain can be followed all the way back to the stroke it came from.

  1. 01

    Meridian – the model that reads

    Designation, leader, pipe, scale. A quantity where every row can be opened.

    Read more about Meridian
    • Reads the drawing exactly, never guesses
    • Four steps: preparation, detection, assignment, measurement
    • Lengths per system, dimension and material
    • Ambiguous is marked ambiguous, not zero and not a guess
  2. 02

    Takeoff

    Calibration, snap, ortho, deductions and a markup list you can edit.

    • One data model for what you draw and what the machine read: polylines with beteckning, length, confidence and source
    • Calibrate the scale against a known distance or the scale bar
    • Deductions are written as areas and subtracted per row
    • Every correction is stored as facit and feeds the regression suite
  3. 03

    Costing

    Materials, labour and markup on top of the quantity, and a tender to review on screen.

    • Material book with price per metre and dimension
    • Labour per metre, markup and margin
    • The tender as PDF before it leaves the office
    • Export to CSV, XLSX and Bluebeam markup
  4. 04

    Projects

    The whole document set as one model. Sheet against sheet, revision against revision.

    • All plans and systems in one project
    • Compare revisions and see the change in metres
    • Risers are counted until you give a storey height, and the export says the height is assumed
    • Ask the document set: how many metres of KV01 in building A?

    • Final exam marked on the server with a verifiable certificate ID

FEATURES

What you use every day

Automatic takeoff with Meridian

Upload the drawing. A few minutes later you have the pipe lengths, split by dimension and material.

Designations are read from the sheet and bound to the pipes through the leaders. Scale is verified before a single metre is counted. What cannot be decided is flagged, never guessed.

Manual takeoff that recognises the whole run

One click on the pipe marks the whole run. Material and dimension come from the drawing’s legend.

No point-by-point clicking as in Bluebeam. Snap, ortho and deductions are still there when you want to draw yourself, and everything you draw lands in the same quantity list as the automatic reading.

3D view

See how the installations run through the building before you count them.

The plan rises into a model: risers through slabs, shafts, system by system. You spot what is unclear on the flat sheet in seconds.

Collaboration in the project

Several estimators in the same project, even on the same drawing.

Split the document set between you, review each other’s rows and keep one shared facit. Roles and permissions per company.

Export to Wikells and Excel

The quantities land directly in the estimating system, with price and carbon value per row, not in a sheet you retype by hand.

Export to Wikells, XLSX and CSV, plus Bluebeam markup if a colleague wants to review in their usual tool. Every row keeps designation, dimension, length and its source in the drawing, so the carbon figure in the tender can be traced when the client asks.

Installation catalogue and material book

KV, VV, VVC, S and VS with the right materials from the start. Adapt the catalogue to how your office counts.

The default catalogue covers the common systems and materials. You add your own articles, prices and labour times, so the quantity becomes a costing without rewriting.

Projects, revisions and history

The whole document set in one project. New revision, same project, the difference in metres.

Folders, roles and a history of who changed what and when. When a new revision arrives you re-read the sheet and see what moved, instead of taking everything off again.

THE WAY IN

Start with a sheet you have already taken off

Then you see the difference against your own figure at once, row by row, with the sheet’s strokes behind every metre.
