What BOS does

Upload a PDF drawing and work through it with the estimator, one drawing at a time.

• Sections, lengths and weights, then labour and price. You check every line.
• AS/NZS standard sections built in, from UB and UC to SHS, RHS, angle and plate.
• Turn the estimate into a quote or a job.
• Raise purchase orders from the estimate, split by supplier.
• AI credits pay for the drawing reading. Every plan includes some each month.

Quotes that keep every version, carry the drawings and go out by email.

• Each revision is saved as a new version.
