From Revit model to priced Bill of Quantities
Three steps and no manual takeoff. Here is what happens between pressing the button and opening the spreadsheet.
What the plugin reads
It walks the elements you already modelled - walls, floors, ceilings, openings, finishes - and takes the quantities Revit already holds: areas, volumes, counts and lengths. Nothing is remodelled and no shared parameters are pushed into your families.
How Smart Match finds a product
Every quantity carries a material and a type. Smart Match compares those against the vendor catalog on category, dimension and specification, then ranks the candidates instead of guessing one. Where several vendors supply the same product, each match travels with the line.
What the export contains
One row per item: quantity, the unit rate broken down by component, the line total in EGP, the matched product's specification and the vendor to call. It opens as a plain Excel sheet, so your own templates and formulas keep working.
Pricing a project still runs on phone calls
Going from a finished model to a priced BoQ is manual work, and it gets redone on every project.
Days lost to price hunting
Estimators call suppliers one by one, then build the same spreadsheet again on the next project.
Generic families, no real products
A Revit schedule counts elements, not products. Someone types in the make, the specification and the price later, by hand.
Budgets built on stale prices
Quotes go stale fast. A BoQ priced three months ago can be well off the market by tender day, and you find out as an overrun.
How The Vendor List works
Two sides, one list. Vendors publish what they sell, and engineering offices pull it into the model they are already working in.
- 1
Vendors publish live catalogs
Suppliers and manufacturers upload their active products through the vendor portal, with technical specifications, current prices and contact details.
- 2
The plugin extracts the BoQ
Engineers run The Vendor List inside Revit and get an accurate Bill of Quantities out of the model, with no manual takeoff.

Smart Match prices every line
Quantities are matched against the live database, so the Excel file you export already carries real prices, product specs and the vendor for each item.
