Software Application


 Through to this subject, I've the opportunity to learn two different software which are the "Cost X" and "Buildsoft Global Estmating". I find these two software are very useful and efficient for our Quantity Surveying Profession. "Cost X" is a software which uses BIM technology prepared by Engineers and Architects and quantities are prepared by us as a QS using this software. Cost X is a user friendly software which enable us to take off quantities fast, easy and accurate. Taking off using this software enabled us to shorten the time required to measure instead of measure manually. I believe this software would change the QS profession to become a more systematic and reliable profession in few years time. On top of that, Buildsoft is a also a very good software to be used in the QS profession. This software enables us to prepare BQ and Price List in a fast and easy way. Price list can be changed anytime by just a few clicks away and BQ can be duplicated for other projects' references. In a nutshell, software nowadays make our life easier, faster and more accurate.
