Why construction teams need it

A BoQ is not only a spreadsheet. It needs item structure, pricing records, attachments, decisions and acceptance history.

Preserve item hierarchy

Parent-child BoQ records keep groups and line items organized as the package grows.

Separate cost categories

Material, equipment, labour and other costs can be tracked as structured item-level data.

Track quotation decisions

Submitted, declined, withdrawn and accepted quotation states stay visible in the commercial record.

Commercial records connect to project delivery

Bill of Quantities works with take-off, contract, invoice and change order workflows.

Keep BoQ structure and pricing decisions in the project record.

ArchiMesh connects BoQs with take-off, contracts, quotations, invoices and project collaboration.
