Primus-DCF is a free and complete software that allows Engineers, Architects, Surveyors and building contractors to easily create bills of quantities and estimates for the building industry through a very user-friendly interface. Your monitor becomes your desktop where you will be able to open Price Books, Price Lists, Estimates and Bills of Quantities, consult them, insert, modify or copy parts of data from a source document to a destination document, also allowing you to export the information to Excel, Word or PDF files, and easily modify data with simple Drag&Drop operations.

Thanks to the WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) technology, the document that you see while editing is exactly the same document you will get printed on paper. You can have different documents on your monitor and operate on any of them wherever you want by simply pointing your mouse cursor on the part you want to modify allowing you to work in a more direct and intuitive way.

Primus-DCF is based on a DCF (Document Computation Format). This standard introduces a revolution in the building software world overtaking the basic data sharing concept. Thanks to this very powerful format you can easily transmit Bill of Quantities and Estimates documents: send, receive, publish on the Internet, copy them to hard disk (CD, Memory Stick, floppy) and everything in your document will be contained in one unique file. No more large sized database structures but just one small sized easy to manage compressed file.

With Primus-DCF you can also take-off measurements directly from your AutoCAD drawing file with a very powerful feature that recognizes the drawing entities and automatically sends the measurements to the associated Price List Item in PriMus-DCF. This additional characteristic allows you constantly keep under control the Bill of Quantities and Estimate’s budget as the design phase progresses, updating all data in realtime!
