As a contractor, one of the main challenges PT Wijaya Karya Bangunan Gedung Tbk. faced was to ensure the estimated quantity reflected to the construction progress on site. To resolve such issue, they need to figure out suitable tools to assist their goal while minimizing human error throughout the quantity take-off procedure.

The Challenges

The non-typical plan for each building in this project posed a significant challenge for PT Wika Gedung Tbk. when executing the quantity take-off. With a manual practice, it would have required a longer time to complete, and the building's numerous voids with sophisticated MEP installation made it even more challenging. This complexity could have resulted in discrepancies in the estimated quantity, leading to cost overruns and a strained budget. However, with the implementation of Glodon solutions, the process became streamlined, reducing the risk of human error and ensuring that the estimated quantity reflected accurately to the construction progress on site.

Key Feature Highlight

The Point-room function is a game-changer in the quantity take-off process, automatically completing the interior for specific rooms or floors. This innovative feature significantly speeds up the QTO process and reduces the risk of human error.

Custom Rate-Code feature allowing users to have the flexibility to set up unique codes that align with the company's existing database, making the quantity take-off process even more efficient and accurate.

The Auto-Linked Quantity feature not only eliminates the risk of human error but also allows users to effortlessly track and cross-check each bill item. This feature provides solution to ensure highly accurate quantity output.
