Instructions

First, download the appropriate Bid Package from the table above. Feel free to download more than one! Save the download to your OCS Documents\OST folder or any other convenient location on your computer.

Next, ensure On-Screen Takeoff is installed and that you have the database into which you want to import this OSP Bid Package active/selected. (See Related Articles for more information.)

Note

You can import a Bid Package even if you are a PlanViewer (free/unlicensed) user.

Locate the OSP Bid Package you downloaded and double-click it. That's it! On-Screen Takeoff does the rest for you.

It may take a few seconds to import, then the Bid is visible in the active database.

Locate the new Project and double-click it to open the Image Tab.

The first Page in the project shows you a very brief introduction to On-Screen Takeoff's most important functions for new users.
