PDF takeoff
Available on request
Measure once, populate the whole estimate.
Calibrated PDF takeoff with linear / area / count tools that drop into an assembly catalog. Pick "8-inch CMU wall" and the takeoff inherits labor, material, equipment, and waste factors from your cost library. A measurement becomes an estimate line becomes a cost code.
- Calibrate per sheet — sheet-by-sheet scale calibration; multi-sheet plans don't trip up.
- Assembly-driven — measurements map to assemblies that resolve to L/M/E/S unit costs from your cost library.
- Layer overlay — overlay revised drawings to see what's new and re-measure only the deltas.
- Sub markup propagation — sub trades get their own takeoff slice that pre-fills their ITB package.
Takeoff catalog — wall assemblies
| Assembly | Code | Unit cost |
|---|---|---|
| 8" CMU wall — std | 04 22 00 | $14.20 / sf |
| 12" CMU wall — std | 04 22 00 | $18.45 / sf |
| Metal stud + GWB — 5/8" | 09 21 16 | $8.85 / sf |
| Furring + GWB | 09 22 16 | $6.20 / sf |
| Acoustic batt insulation | 07 21 16 | $2.40 / sf |
Unit cost = L+M+E+S + waste

Bid packages & ITB portal
Available on request
The ITB subs actually respond to.
Bid packages assembled from the takeoff, sent to subs through a portal that doesn't make them create an account. One-click acceptance, structured pricing entry, alternate handling, and a leveling sheet your estimator builds in real time as quotes come in.
- No-account portal — subs respond via a secure link — fast, friction-free, with a clear audit trail.
- Structured response — line-level pricing instead of "$1.2M lump sum" PDFs; fewer leveling surprises.
- Alternate & voluntary alt handling — multiple alternates per package, side-by-side comparison.
- Bid leveling — apportions scope gaps, normalizes inclusions, surfaces the apples-to-apples number.
- Risk overlay — bonding capacity, concurrent project load, alumni feedback from prior jobs.

Accounts payable
Available now
Three-way match before anything pays.
Vendor invoices arrive by email, get parsed for PO #, line totals, and dates, then run a PO ↔ receipt ↔ invoice match. Mismatches queue with the specific delta highlighted. Approvers see exactly what's different — not a stack of PDFs. Ships with new GC accounts; deeper invoice automation is available on request.
- Invoice capture — pulls vendor, PO #, line items, totals, tax, and remit-to from a PDF or image.
- 3-way match — quantity and price tolerance configurable per vendor or commodity.
- Approval routes — by job, GL account, amount threshold, or vendor; bypass approvals never silent.
- Payment runs — ACH or check, with positive-pay file output and remittance email per vendor.
- 1099 tracking — sub-by-sub year-to-date, with a clean January export.

Consolidated reporting
Available on request
Multiple companies, one trial balance, no spreadsheets.
Hold a GC and a self-perform LLC and a real-estate entity? When your CFO is ready, AOS consolidates them with eliminations computed automatically. Intercompany transactions flow with audit trails. The financial statements you used to assemble in Excel come out of the database — see the full construction accounting & ERP.
- Multi-entity support — add legal entities without buying another subscription bundle.
- Eliminations engine — intercompany A/R ↔ A/P, intercompany sales, intercompany interest auto-eliminated.
- Minority interest — non-100% owned subsidiaries handled with proportional consolidation.
- Branded statements — consolidated P&L, balance sheet, cash flow on your letterhead, owner-portal delivered.
- One-click drill-down — every consolidated line drills to the underlying entity, then to the GL line, then to the source transaction.
