All materials, equipments, labour and items of work in BuildSystem web and
software have 13-digit codes, in levels 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5, based on MasterFormat and
R.S. Means coding systems.
MasterFormat is an internationally accepted coding
system for construction resources. It was introduced 50 years ago. The entire
construction industry in USA and Canada uses it.
Through the 13-digit coding system, all schedules of rates from different sources such as IPMG, CPWD, State PWDs, Railways, MORTH, Users, etc. come on a common digital platform for linking with manufacturers and vendors for updated rates of materials for estimating, tendering and procurement.
