About Estimate Nepal

Nepal's first purpose-built construction estimating platform.

Our Mission

Our mission is to digitise construction estimating in Nepal — replacing error-prone manual processes with an accurate, collaborative, and fast platform built specifically for how construction professionals in Nepal work.

We believe every engineer and contractor in Nepal deserves the same tools that large firms in other countries have had for years — without the complexity or the price tag. Estimate Nepal makes professional-grade BOQ and tender preparation accessible to every practitioner, from a solo consultant to a large contractor.

The Problem We Solve

Today, most construction BOQs in Nepal are prepared manually in Microsoft Excel — a process that is slow, prone to formula errors, and nearly impossible to collaborate on in real time. Engineers spend hours copying rate tables from DUDBC schedules, calculating quantities by hand, and formatting documents for submission.

Manual Excel BOQs

Formula errors, version conflicts, no audit trail

DUDBC Rate Lookups

Time-consuming cross-referencing across district schedules

Drawing Measurement

Manual scaling with rulers, error-prone quantity extraction

Tender Documents

Hours of formatting for each submission, no reusable templates

What Estimate Nepal Does

Estimate Nepal replaces the entire manual estimating workflow with a connected, digital platform:

1

Upload PDF Drawings

Upload your architectural, structural, or civil drawings. Each page is processed for digital measurement — no printing, no ruler required.

2

Measure Digitally

Trace dimensions directly on your drawings. Measure lengths, areas, volumes, and counts. Set the scale once and every measurement auto-converts.

3

Link DUDBC Rates

Connect each measurement to the relevant rate item from the DUDBC catalog — covering all 77 districts and updated each fiscal year. Use your own custom rates where needed.

4

Export Tender Documents

Generate BOQ, rate analysis sheets, and tender documents as PDF or Excel in one click — professionally formatted and ready for submission.
