GTO (Graphical TakeOff)
QuickPen's Graphical TakeOff method not only speeds up the take off process, it also reduces mistakes by giving you a visual summary of TakeOff status. But the real power of GTO? An audit trail made of connected real-world items, not just a quantity list of unconnected duct and fittings.
Automatic On-the-Fly Fitting Generation
Save time and improve accuracy: AutoBid automatically inserts every fitting and hanger correctly as you take off the duct - no wrong fittings, no omissions, no mistakes. As you move through takeoff, GTO senses the need for fittings and automatically supplies the correct ones. Taking off a run of duct that turns 90 degrees? Just touch the corner and continue down the run - GTO will do the rest, instantly adding the 90-degree elbow you need.
On Screen View
Harness all the power of GTO - right on your screen. Import drawings into AutoBid and display them on screen to perform takeoff directly from electronic drawings without a digitizer table or bulky paper drawings.
Assembly Generator and Library
Got a list of items you take off repeatedly? Easily select any group of items (including other assemblies) and convert them to an assembly. Use them in your current bid or save it to your library.
Easy Insertion and Deletion Because GTO displays and color codes every system in your plan, inserting and deleting items is easy and fast - just click on the graphic and insert the item.
