Hello!
I'm new to Chief Architect and looking for some advice as I'm having trouble finding a solution. I'm trying to create a quick and efficient process for generating a Scope of Work (S.o.W) or Bill of Quantities (BOQ) to send to my trades for RFQs. Initially, I purchased Chief Architect to create detailed drawings instead of using MagicPlan. My goal was to provide my customers with visual representations of their requested renovation scope before construction begins.
Now, I’d like to take it a step further and use Chief Architect (or another tool) to streamline the estimating process. Ideally, I’d like to generate different layouts with a detailed S.o.W based on selected elements in the plan. I’m not sure if this is possible within Chief Architect—perhaps through a schedule, material list, or some other feature—or if there’s a better way to efficiently gather the customer’s required scope, provide a detailed breakdown to my trades, and incorporate it back into my plan.
If anyone has experience or suggestions for achieving this, I’d greatly appreciate your input!
Thanks!
Ian
