Master Data
Your company's reusable library of items, materials, labour and equipment.
Master Data is where your company's reusable estimation building blocks live — Items of Work, Materials, Labour and Equipment — each in its own organised library.
Every new company starts with a curated set of Indian construction defaults, and can add, edit or organise its own from there. These libraries are what your BOQs and Rate Analysis are built from, so updating a rate or adding an item here makes it available across every project.
Why keep your data in CATBOQ's Master Data?
Organise every reusable building block in one place, so your BOQs and rates stay consistent across every project.
Items of Work
A categorised library of standard construction work items, ready to use in any BOQ.
Materials
Materials organised by category and brand, with rate, GST and HSN details for rate analysis.
Labour
Labour categories and rates used to build labour costs into your rate analysis.
Equipment
Equipment categories with rental rates for machinery costs in your estimates.
Indian defaults, out of the box
Every company starts with a curated set of Indian construction items, materials, labour and equipment.
One update, everywhere
Update a rate or add an item once, and it's available across every project that uses it.
