Estimator - Take-off

2 weeks ago


Saskatoon, Canada Pagnotta Inc. Full time

Pagnotta is looking for a take-off specialist within the estimating department. This is a professional responsible for accurately determining the quantities and costs of materials, labour, and equipment required for construction projects. This role typically falls within the construction industry, where cost estimation is crucial for project planning, budgeting, and bidding processes. The primary duty of a take-off specialist estimator is to analyze project plans, specifications, and other relevant documents to identify and quantify all necessary components of a project.

Here are some key responsibilities of a take-off specialist estimator:
**1. Project Analysis**: Review project plans, blueprints, and specifications to understand the scope of work, materials, and labour requirements. Identify any special conditions or constraints that may impact the estimate.

**2. Quantity Take-Offs**: Perform detailed quantity take-offs, which involve measuring and quantifying materials, quantities, and dimensions required for each aspect of the project. This includes items such as concrete, steel, electrical systems, plumbing, and other relevant components.

**3. Cost Estimation**: Utilize industry knowledge, historical data, and current market prices to determine the cost of materials, labour, equipment, and subcontractor services required for the project. Calculate the total project cost by multiplying the quantities with the unit costs for each item.

**4. Documentation**: Prepare comprehensive and accurate take-off reports, cost estimates, and other supporting documentation required for project proposals, bids, and client presentations. Ensure that all information is well-organized, clear, and transparent.

**5. Collaboration**: Work closely with project managers, architects, engineers, and other stakeholders to gather information, clarify project requirements, and address any discrepancies or changes during the estimating process. Collaborate with suppliers and subcontractors to obtain pricing and availability of materials and services.

**6. Cost Optimization**: Identify opportunities for cost savings and value engineering by proposing alternative materials, construction methods, or design modifications that meet project requirements while reducing costs. Provide recommendations to improve efficiency and profitability.

**7. Continuous Learning**: Stay updated with industry trends, new construction technologies, and changes in building codes and regulations. Attend seminars, workshops, and training programs to enhance estimating skills and knowledge.
