Extraction · Consolidation · Cutting

ConsoliBom extracts and consolidates the bill of materials from all your drawings. All that is left is to place the order.

ConsoliBom reads the tables on your drawings, groups articles worded differently from one drawing to the next, then nests the cutting across the whole job. One to three days of Excel work become minutes.

What you drop off
The job's drawings: GA drawings, isometrics, detail sheets. Vector PDFs or scans.
What you get back
A consolidated BOM, a cutting plan for the whole package, a purchase list.
What you keep
Control over the groupings, and the source drawing on every line.

How it works

From PDF drawings to delivered material, in five steps

One chain, from drop-off to purchase order. At every step a BOM line still knows which drawing and item number it came from.

01Input

Upload drawings

GA drawings, isometrics, detail sheets. Vector or scanned, all at once or as the job goes. Nothing to rename, nothing to sort.

Drawings arrive in any order
02Reading

BOM extraction

Title blocks and material take-off tables are read line by line: description, material, size, quantity, item number. On a scan, doubtful characters are flagged rather than guessed.

Vector reading and OCR
03Review

Semantic grouping

SEAMLESS PIPE 4", SCH.40 and PIPE 4IN SCH40 SMLS are the same pipe. ConsoliBom proposes one article; you confirm, split or merge.

Proposed, never applied silently
04Optimisation

Optimised cutting plan

1D for bars, profiles and tubes; 2D for plates. Real stock lengths, saw kerf counted, guillotine mode if the shop only runs a panel saw. It nests the consolidated BOM, so two different drawings can share the same bar.

Output: purchase list and cutting sheet
05Tracking

Procurement tracking

The confirmed BOM becomes the purchase register. A supplier PO reconciles against it line by line: required, ordered, delivered, remaining, all in one place.

Results

What it changes on a job

Basis: a typical multi-drawing package
BOM turnaround
1–3 d
→
min

From raw drawings to a consolidated, checked BOM. Retyping goes away; the estimator only rules on the doubtful groups.

Material saved
5–15%

Nesting drawing by drawing wastes steel. Consolidating first lets cuts from different drawings share one bar and one plate.

Order follow-up
1 register

Required, ordered, delivered and remaining live on the BOM itself. No more side spreadsheet to keep in sync by hand.

Boiler shop floor: profiles and tubes waiting to be cut, drawings checked on the workbench
On site

Sixty drawings, three ways to write the same pipe, one bar to order.

ConsoliBom sorts that out before you buy, without changing shop habits or the drawing formats you receive.
