Benefits of Autodesk 2D & 3D construction takeoff software.

Explore the advantages contractors receive by implementing cloud-based 2D & 3D takeoff software.

Centralizing 2D & 3D takeoffs

2D and 3D takeoff solution gives teams clarity in project budgets, allowing them to accurately assess the scope of work and plans. With access to this data, companies can more easily manage procurement activities, self-perform tasks, and streamline production processes.

Eliminates Redundancies

With Forma Takeoff estimators can maximize their efficiency and accuracy by organizing packages based on scope of work. This strategy streamlines the takeoff process, allowing estimators to make better decisions and reduce the risk of going over budget.

Improves collaboration

Forma Takeoff facilitates collaboration between estimators by breaking down data silos and enabling access to essential documents, drawings, and models. With it, estimators can use centralized platform to increase takeoff accuracy and project transparency.

Saves Time

Achieving realistic and accurate takeoffs is essential for a successful construction planning process. By empowering teams to meet even the most challenging of deadlines, effective takeoffs have an invaluable role to play in ensuring projects come in on time and on budget.

Frequently asked questions about Forma Takeoff (formerly Forma Takeoff).

Forma Takeoff is now Forma Takeoff. No action is required. Your projects, data, and access remain unchanged, and the capabilities you rely on will continue to work exactly as they do currently."

Forma Takeoff is an essential software for construction professionals. It helps estimation teams perform accurate 2D and 3D takeoff in a single toolset. With Forma Takeoff, administrators and estimators share a real-time view of estimation work across the Construction projects, improving collaboration and transparency while creating more competitive bids.

Forma Takeoff software typically requires a monthly or annual subscription, giving you access to the latest features and updates. To learn more please check the pricing page.

With Forma Takeoff software, users can quickly access drawing and model-based quantification workflows, so estimating teams can collaborate better.Moreover, its intuitive interface enables users to navigate easily and accurately measure in 2D or 3D.

To access Forma Takeoff, you will first need to purchase a subscription. Once you have your subscription, sign in with your Autodesk ID. After signing in, you will be able to start using Takeoff. Start an Forma Takeoff free trial to evaluate 2D and 3D takeoff software for estimators.

Forma Takeoff includes a growing set of Autodesk AI-powered capabilities designed to make quantification workflows faster and more accurate. For example, Autodesk Assistant uses conversational AI, giving users more intuitive and flexible ways to access, validate, and summarize critical information in published specifications. Automated Symbol Detection lets users trace a single symbol, and Autodesk AI automatically detects and counts all matching symbols on the drawing. The Specifications tool provides easier access to spec information and AI breaks large, complex spec books into digestible, searchable sections, making it easier for estimators to find what matters. Additionally, Construction IQ brings risk awareness to the preconstruction phase by analyzing project data and identifying potential issues early. These are just a few of the AI features currently available in Forma Takeoff.

Some Autodesk AI-powered features do not leverage machine learning and so do not require data for training of the underlying models. When an AI feature does require data for training, Autodesk uses different data sources depending on the feature. You can learn more about whether a Autodesk AI feature relies on machine learning and what data sources are used for training in the Trusted AI section of  Autodesk's Trust Center.
