DESENVOLVIMENTO DE SOFTWARE EM VB.NET PARA ELABORAÇÃO DE ORÇAMENTOS ANALÍTICOS

Abstract

Construction budgets are important components of civil construction. Their function is to analyze and estimate the final value of a set of services or a work. For this there are different budget types with particular degrees of accuracy and different applications. The most detailed budgeting process is called analytical budgeting, prepared by the engineering team using specific software or spreadsheets. The use of the first type is often frustrating because in order to use them you have to pay or opt for free but often inefficient options, which leads most offices to adopt simple spreadsheets, such as Microsoft Excel, whose characteristic It is easy to use. However, budgeting in these environments makes budgeting a repetitive, unproductive, and error-prone process. In this regard, VB.NET language-based analytical budgeting software for personal use was developed in Windows Form, that is, with Windows-like appearance and functionality, with windows, buttons, forms, menus and labels.The Program has features that allow the user to save new budgets and open existing budgets, define steps, query SINAPI worksheets embedded directly in the program, add services, create unit compositions and view them, establish the BDI, create a summary worksheet, generate the ABC curve of services and automate budget formatting by enumerating items and performing summation of prices. Thus, it is possible to develop a much more efficient and less error-prone budgeting, saving time and, consequently, possible financial gains due to the greater competitiveness generated.
