Advantages for Property Developers, Turnkey Companies and Prefabrication Companies

		How can you access attractive designs and professional visualizations long before construction has started? Is the planned project profitable or not? Do you have a well-founded quantity and cost framework? Question after question! We can help you to get the right answer quickly. You can use Nemetschek’s integrated Design2Cost solution to compare planned and actual costs more quickly than ever before.

The waiting is over

You can also meet customer requirements quicker and more easily with Design2Cost: As early as the design phase, but also during the construction phase itself, you can check the effects another change request (e.g. the addition or removal of a wall) has on costs at the push of a button. With Nemetschek, you no longer have to wait for up to a week for updated quantity and cost statements. Instead, you can use the solution for graphical quantity takeoff (checked and certified by TÜV SÜD) to explore all kinds of variants for yourself. This flexibility will also thrill your customers.

New insights for your Customers?

Long before starting construction, you can use the Design2Cost solution to provide your customer with professional building images and animations.
