What’s Included
FabSystems is dedicated to creating a simple user-friendly experience at lightning-fast speeds.
Commercial construction is more competitive than ever. You need a tool to give your fabrication or erector shop an advantage. There is nothing faster, more accurate, or more complete on the market.
Database
FabSystems accesses an extensive database we have been developing for 10+ years. Every item we encountered over many years of operating is included in FabSystems. Our Material Definition is unlike anything else offered today…Its all there:
Angles - included
Bracing - included
Roof Openings - included
Stairs - included
The library is complete, if you need a different item it can be permanently added to your library in minutes.
With every other estimating program your estimators still have to manually enter a large amount of data, losing time.
Point and Click Interface
Data is entered into FabSystems using pulldown menus greatly increasing the speed of estimate population. The only typing is size and quantity when entering the data.
Auto-Calculation
FabSystems formulas used to calculate weight, time, paint, and cost are time proven, having been in use for over five years and thousands of estimates. They are accurate and complete. You won’t every fall short and underestimate paint or labor!
Auto-Population
When entering a beam for example, the user completes the pulldown data entry, adds the size and quantity, and the system immediately calculates and populates every item, cost, and task related to that entry. No other steel fabrication software comes close to the speed and simplicity of FabSystems.
Bill of Materials
The Bill of Materials is imported from modeling software such as SDS2 and incorporated into FabSystems
Material Management
Our goal was to build the perfect estimating program, but we’ve also included a very effective Material Management system in FabSystems.
Import files to create shipping manifests, track members, etc
Creates a cut list with mark numbers to easily order beams with less than 2% droppage
Creates an instant sort list with mark numbers
Creates a mark list for remaining items to be shipped
Tracks shipped members
