As today's financial crisis is tightening our budgets, a question that often arises is €Why should I hire a professional 3D BIM Modeling, Coordination Drawings & Product Development company?€ especially when there are a lot of fly-by-night freelancers out there willing to do the job for a fraction of the cost of what professionals usually charge. Throughout this article we will try to demystify this question and show you why all of the successful firms still hire professionals for this kind of work.
Cheaper companies will double your work:
Sure, as you know there are a lot of cheap companies and freelancers that offer HVAC, plumbing coordination drawings, MEP design drawings, piping drawings and so on - and at a fraction of the cost€¦ but you know what happens?
These individuals work fast and deliver an unreliable result that is less than acceptable, and they will double your stress and hassles. You know the results on these projects must be strict and reliable, and there's no room for careless mistakes - so in order to pinch pennies on the project, you end up spending much more than it's worth, both in money and in time. The frustration itself that is involved with checking the drawings, receiving rejected submittals, being the cause for delays on the project, and having to resubmit drawings again will be enough to convince you to hire it done right to begin with.
MEP Coordination Drawings are advantageous to get:
MEP is an abbreviation for Mechanical, Electric and Plumbing systems with regard to building projects. With the increasing complexity and functionality of every system, MEP activities aren't confined to the conventional mechanical, electrical and plumbing system but additionally include fire protection, gasoline piping, process piping, pneumatic lines, data systems etc.Coordination of Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) systems amongst themselves along with other building systems,including architectural and structural disciplines,is oftena critical, challenging and cumbersome task, especially in sophisticated building projects with powerful MEP requirements. The coordination technique of Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) systems involves defining the precise location of each building system component during installation within the building and within the constraints of the envelope defined by the architectural and structural systems.
MEP (Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing) Coordination Drawings are utilized to reduce conflicts between these three (3) trades. Ductwork, plumbing and piping will be coordinated in such a manner to ensure they donot interfere with each other, while taking in to account the ceilings and structural members.
What this does, and one of the other reasons it is so helpful, is that this kind of coordination, from a trustworthy company such as Advantage Engineering Technologies, will save a significant man-hours, and therefore - money.
So to summarize, for those that are serious about their projects running smoothly, while respecting a budget, professional 3D BIM Modeling, Coordination Drawings and Product Development companies are the right choice. Even if you do investslightly more up front than you would with simple freelancers, the money you save in the end (and the stressyou avoid) is easily worth the little extra investment.
