the pain out of cut & fill measurement.
Designed specifically for
QS's, Estimators and Engineers who need to make rapid and highly accurate
measurement of excavation and groundworks.
EasyEarthworks
builds on Visual Precision's ever growing reputation for leading edge software
solutions. Traditionally an extensive task, cut & fill as well as mass

seamlessly interface with all other applications including spreadsheets,
estimating and BQ systems of all types.
Standard features include
the well established HotLink data transfer system as well as

measurements where certain pieces of key data (like levels) do not
exist.
Who's it
for?
Quantity Surveyors and Estimators for Main Contractors,
Groundworks Contractors and PQS's who measure cut & fill and need
demonstrably more accurate figures in less time. For pre tender, Tender and
Post Contract work.
Who's it not
for?
EasyEarthworks is ideally suited to construction
type projects and has been specifically designed by Quantity Surveyors and
Estimators for their work tasks. It is not suited to opencast mining or
tunnelling.

LaunchSite
So
good it's like legalised cheating.
Impressing clients is a key factor in retaining old accounts (as
well as getting new ones) and with clients becoming ever more demanding your
software systems must be right up to scratch. Delivering impressive reports is
the name of the game, reports that convert your professional skill into
attention grabbing, account retaining Cost Plans with real punch - plans that
are quick to construct - plans that write more to your bottom line - plans with
the accuracy to confidently take a project to site (and beyond).
LaunchSite is the system to achieve all of this...and more.
Bigger
projects means bigger clients and profit earning Cost Plans need more than
simple spreadsheets or a chopped up (or down) estimating system to keep you in
the game.
So where does LaunchSite score over other solutions?
Firstly, its innovative front end welcomes new users like no other
system. Confidence in the system is immediately high, removing the typical
resistance to change barrier and leveraging the users confidence
constructively.
Secondly, the effortless technical ability of the
system becomes instantly recognised by new users enabling them to engage the
task ahead with zeal and a clear head. Large projects are no longer seen as
proverbial mountains but are simply and effectively reduced to managable tasks
that users attack with ease, little or no stress and therefore greater thinking
and problem solving abilities. Short and pressing time scales can be engaged
with the certain knowledge that the system is up to the job so each and every
user can let their abilities and flair rise to the challenges that is todays
fast moving construction market.
Of course, these reasons are just the
start of why LaunchSite is the supreme champion in its field. More key
profit earning features revolve around its technical prowess including easy to
use drag and drop technology, stunning flexible reports via its Industry
Standard report generator Crystal Reports, it's totally integrated taking-off
capability, and other key features such as non destructive editing and of
course its prescription strength HotLink tie-up with EasyGrid, the
most widely adopted digitiser based measurement system in todays
industry.
Who's it for?
Cost Planners with the
need to produce serious, in depth, highly detailed cost plans, cost models and
feasibility studies.
Who's it not for?
Users
who are still convinced spreadsheets can cope.
Community
software
LaunchSite exchanges data with other members of
the QSToolbox family of applications including EasyGrid for
electronic digitiser based taking-off and QSExpress from which elemental
reference costs and tender based item costs can be
mined.
