An innovative estimating solution that can be used to estimate
the cost of a project at various stages (from Planning to the Tender Phase).
It can be used by contractors, subcontractors, consultants, project owners,
investors, designers, and suppliers to use for quotation. CostOS is easy to
learn, uses solid estimating principles and makes it easy to get information
for documentation.

NOMITECH (CostOS)
This software is that it produces accurate take-offs and it allows the user to take-off quantities
directly from the plans directly into the estimate which can be done all on the same screen.
1) Simplicity with Plans
Cubit brings simplicity to importing, rotating, and scaling the user’s plans. If there happens to be a
mistake when scaling, it is easy to rescale at any time and all the taking off will automatically be
updated.
2) Plays Well with Others
Cubit is a team player, and it incorporates easily with MudShark Earthworks, Microsoft Excel, Cordell
Direct and the Buildsoft Estimating Series with data that is easy to move into all the most widely used
packages. Cubit will also plans from CAD(DWG, DXF), PDF, Image or a BIM format.
3) Minimize Errors and Second-Guessing
Cubit can directly trace over the imported plans, simple or complex quantity take offs are performed
quickly and accurately. Besides, it has greater control, insights and analysis

1) Uses a Fixed License
Buildsoft has decided to incorporate a fixed license into Cubit which
means it is fixed to one user and can only be used on one computer. Even
though this means the security for this software has been amplified, it
also limits its flexibility when the user forgets to bring their laptop.
2) Requires a Powerful Computer
This software has a lot of functions which means it also requires a
powerful computer for it to function and run smoothly to reduce the
loading time.

BENEFITSBIM
1. Increases accuracy of the cost estimation process
- From the BIM model, quantities can be extracted and form a basis for a bill of
quantities which can be used in the procurement phase. Estimations can be even
more precise if productivity and other related information for building components
in the model are available.
2. Preparation of the tender documents can be reduced
- BIM has a feature which acts like an automatic quantity take-off and automatic
- estimation and hence, the time need to price the building will be shortened.

BENEFITSCAD Measurement
1. 3D modelling
- CAD measurement provides 3D modelling which can be rotated around an axis
which gives the user or designer a better understanding or a better image of the
building that is being constructed.
2. Reduce human error
- The human brain cannot visualize to exact scale, hence with the help of the
3D modelling, not only can it help ease the visualization of the building, but it
can also help minimize the need for re-work because the design quality greatly improves.

BENEFITS
Manual Measurement
1. Cost effective
Manual measurement has the lowest start-up cost in comparison with the other two
measurements as the cost required for the manual measurement is mainly on the
printing.

CONSTRAINTSBIM1. Incompatibility with partners- BIM is not yet universally used among construction professionals. There is
always the possibility that one of your partners or subcontractors may not use BIM and may not be able to use your models.
CAD Measurement1. Does not allow repetition of object- If there are repeated objects in CAD, the function of cut and paste must be used
to enable the software to automatically measure the number of objects.
Manual Measurement1. More time consuming- There are over a hundred drawings available for the project and a lot of time would be needed to finish it by hand.

BENEFITSBIM
• Great reduction of Rework
-Can reduce rework up from 40 to 90 percent in completed construction.
-Estimated cost of rework merely make up to 5 percent of total construction cost.
•Planning and Control the construction project
-All components of the building can be checked and planned in advance which leads
to better collaboration and instantly reduced needs for on-site inventories such as
reducing and minimizing the costs.
-Following up the actual construction status by daily regularly updating the dates of
installation according to the model itself.

BENEFITSCAD Measurement
• Less time to execute a design idea
- CAD software has variety of tools for editing the design textures and colors of
designs in order to present to client without starting from scratch which will
consumed a lot of time. Hence, it also can help decision be more precise because of
visualize output.
• Enhance correspondence process
- Changing data in CAD is easier, where re-examined and overhauled arrangements
to the group is much more convenient.
- 3D CAD can create different point of view perspectives of a structure with precise
data to be fabricated and making development proficient.

BENEFITSManual Measurement
• Prevent Lost of Data
- During the construction stage, it is important that every drawing must exist when
the contractor is commencing their work.
- Manual measurement can reduce the risk of information loss through computer
system

CONSTRAINTSBIM
• Social context obstacles
- People who fully understands the function of BIM are limited.
- Lack of awareness in possible benefits and challenges in how to use BIM
applications.
• Time Consuming
- A project based construction consist of many elements and subtask to be
scheduled and completed.
- The schedule updating may take up a certain cost hence time consuming

CONSTRAINTSCAD Measurement
• Limitation in measurements
- Estimations like volume couldn’t be implement for 3D drawings.
• Requires time to adapt
- For a higher age of company, it will be difficult to immediately
adapt to the changes from manual to digital
- Consume a longer time to convert or create into a CAD drawings.

CONSTRAINTSManual Measurement
• Inaccuracy of data
- Data which is manually calculated or measured can be inaccurate
as in it requires a lot of time to discover the mistakes.
• Delay of work
- For a higher age of company, it will be difficult to immediately
adapt to the changes from manual to digital
- Variation keen occurs during construction phase where through
manual measurement it indirectly consumes a lot of time.
