CATO Procurement is the entry level to
the CATO suite of software. Bills of
Quantity or Plan/Spec type documents
including quantified or unquantified
schedules.

CATO Procurement provides all the tools
necessary to manually produce
measurement on traditional cut/shuffle
sheets.

Creation of descriptions is simple via
selection from drop down lists. Rogue items
can easily be created ensuring correct
positioning in the final BQ without having to
revert to coding of descriptions. The
flexibility of 'home working' is incorporated
by means of the 'remote working' facility.

This facility also allows projects to be worked on by different offices or freelance QS's
using CATO and then combined centrally.

CATO Procurement allows the surveyor to change the order of the BQ into Trade/Elemental
or Locational order with ease.

Beyond the production of the Tender Documents, the BQ's can be priced for a Pretender
Estimate. Rates may be entered for the returned tenders and a Tender appraisal report
produced. Taking the process further these costs can then be used to analyse the Bills
and finally produce an Elemental Estimate.
