Deliverables

What you get

01

Shop drawings by trade

Ductwork, piping, plumbing, sprinkler and electrical shop drawings with sizes, elevations, hangers and sections, ready for fabrication.

02

BIM coordination & clash detection

Your trade modelled in the shared Revit model, with Navisworks clash reports grouped by trade, level and severity.

03

Spool & fabrication outputs

Spool sheets and fabrication data taken directly from the coordinated model.

04

Calculations for submittals

HVAC load, voltage drop and sprinkler hydraulic calculations and utility load letters, ordered one at a time when you need them.

05

Riser diagrams & takeoffs

Plumbing and electrical riser diagrams, and quantity takeoffs from the drawings for bids and material orders.

06

As-builts & CAD to Revit

Field markups turned into record drawings, and 2D CAD sets rebuilt as Revit models.

How it works

Start with one floor

  1. 1

    Send one floor

    Share models or drawings for one floor or area — under NDA.

  2. 2

    Free clash check

    We run a clash detection check and return a report grouped by trade with screenshots.

  3. 3

    Pilot package

    A small, fixed-scope shop drawing package to prove quality and turnaround.

  4. 4

    Scale up

    Dedicated modelers added to your coordination schedule as work grows.

  • Every package checked by an engineer before it is issued
  • Around-the-clock production for faster turnaround
  • Lower cost than adding in-house detailers
  • Revit, Navisworks, AutoCAD and ACC workflows
  • Single calculations without ordering a full package
  • NDA signed before any file is shared

FAQ

Common questions

Which trades do you draw for?

Mechanical and HVAC, plumbing, electrical and fire protection. We can model one trade on its own, or several together for coordination.

What do you need for a free clash check?

Architectural, structural and MEP models or drawings for one floor or area (Revit, Navisworks or CAD). We return a clash report grouped by trade with screenshots.

Can we order just one calculation?

Yes. HVAC load calculations, electrical load letters, voltage drop, sprinkler hydraulic calculations and COMcheck reports can each be ordered on their own as quick services.

Can you work in our ACC / BIM 360 environment?

Yes — working in your environment keeps files secure and lets you revoke access at project close.

How fast is turnaround?

Our teams work across time zones, so markups sent at the end of your day are typically returned by the next morning. Package schedules are agreed per project.
