From tender pack
to takeoff. Faster.
Drop in the drawings and specs from your next tender. MSUR organises the pack, gets you into the measure and carries those quantities into your estimate, variations and site progress.
Your first tender is free. No card required.
01 / Setup
Start with the tender pack. Not an empty project.
Upload the ZIP the client sent over. MSUR identifies drawings, specs, drawing registers and supporting documents, and lays them out as a structured project, before you've measured a thing.

02 / Scope
MSUR does the reading before you do the measuring.
Legends and specifications point to what needs measuring and how. You review and adjust before anything is confirmed.
Spec reference
M60 Painting, Section 3.2
“Emulsion finish, two coats, to all plastered internal wall surfaces unless noted otherwise.”

- DoorsCount →
You confirm every suggestion before it becomes a measurement.
03 / Takeoff
Measure on the drawing. Keep the commercial record.
The quantities you measure at tender stay on the job for the estimate, variations and progress.
Typical workflow
Measure in one tool, then retype quantities into spreadsheets, estimates and site records.
MSUR
Same numbers from tender takeoff through estimate, variations and progress. No rebuilding each time.
04 / Estimate
Your takeoff is already your estimate.
Measured quantities land straight in the BOQ. Add rates, finish systems and products. No need to rebuild the estimate in a spreadsheet.

Export marked-up drawings and measurement tables for your client or project team.
And it doesn't stop when the job is won.
The measurements created during tendering can continue into variations, progress and applications when you're involved beyond tender.

05 / Variations
The drawing changed. Your numbers didn't disappear.
Select the measured walls the instruction affects, omit the original finish and add the replacement. Some variations need new measurements. You decide what to omit and what to add.
