Does this sound familiar?

Takeoff is done manually, in software or spreadsheets, so you waste time copying quantities to your estimates.

Project drawings are stored in personal folders or shared drives, making them hard to access remotely or by a wider team.

It's difficult to keep track of drawing revisions and share the details of each change with the project team.

Yes?

Chalkstring can help.
