03 / BOQ Import & Templates

Bring the BOQs you already have

Every studio already has BOQs in Excel and PDF, each laid out a little differently. Vismayum reads them, understands how they are organised, and turns them into real, versioned BOQs. It can also draft a starting BOQ from a floor plan, and keep your own blank template so every new project starts from your structure.

03.1

Excel or PDF, whatever layout it's in

BOQs come trade-wise, room-wise, lettered, nested, with category columns or without. Vismayum works out the structure of your file first, then reads each line. The AI only looks at the headings to understand the layout. Quantities, rates and amounts are read exactly as written, never guessed.

  • Handles trade-first and room-first files, and one sheet or many
  • Matching in plain language: Matched, Possible match - is this the same?, or New
  • You review and correct before anything is added

03.2

Start from a floor plan instead

No BOQ yet? Upload a floor plan or interior drawing, or pick one you've already added to Design Files, and Vismayum drafts a starting BOQ: the rooms, the likely trades, and estimated quantities. Rates are left for you to fill from your materials catalog, because a drawing rarely states them.

  • Optionally save the drawing to Design Files at the same time
  • Everything is an estimate you check, nothing is created until you confirm

03.3

Your own template, reused on every project

Most studios start each job from the same Excel file. Upload it once as a template: all your trades, rooms and line items, with the quantities and rates left blank. A new project's BOQ is then just filling in the numbers.

  • Upload the Excel or PDF you already use
  • Keeps your structure: trades, rooms and line items
