RPS FF&E (Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment) is an Application Development Kit, developed by Render Plus to let you create your own applications for placement and reporting of attributes.

Yo create an FF&E application, you:

  1. Define attributes for your application, such as manufacturer,
    part number, description, building, floor, and price. Some of these
    attributes are fixed for each component definition, and some can be set
    for each component instance.
  2. Create a library of components for the users of the application to place.
  3. Define the base and default attributes for each component.

The indented Bill of Materials feature lets you create assemblies in SketchUp, with sub-components and produce a report of the assemblies, and sub-components which automatically calculates the cost of each assembly by adding up the costs of the sub-components.
