    IntraThor bill of quantities and estimating software

    IntraThor bill of quantities software links work items to the cost estimate, the quote and the site. It uses a proprietary graphical take-off method: quantities carry no prices until they are turned into a cost estimate with bills of materials for products and services. Mark-ups, formulas and Word templates are customisable; ThorIA interprets and imports external bills of quantities.

    From the unpriced bill of quantities to the cost estimate, the quote, the site and the progress valuation.

    Bills of materials, mark-ups and formulas

    Bills of materials are work recipes made up of products and services with prices and units of measure. IntraThor's algorithms explode them into the costs of the estimate lines, showing cost and marked-up cost.
