BOQ software

Build clearer Bills of Quantities with local pricing context

BOQ software helps quantity surveyors and contractors organise measured work into descriptions, units, quantities, rates, and totals. Quotify Zambia connects that estimating workflow to Zambian material pricing and supplier comparison so a BOQ can move from measurement to a better-supported cost plan.

Geographic scope: Building estimates and tender preparation in Zambia

What a useful BOQ workflow should cover

  • Consistent work categories and item descriptions
  • Units and quantities that can be reviewed
  • Rates supported by supplier or benchmark context
  • Subtotal, VAT, and project total calculations
  • Exportable documents for review and tendering

From quantity to defensible rate

Measurement establishes how much work is required. Pricing establishes what that measured work is expected to cost. Keeping the two connected reduces transcription errors and makes it easier to explain the basis of a rate during review.

Quotify supports the pricing stage. Professional judgement, project specifications, measurement rules, and contract requirements remain the responsibility of the estimator and project team.
