US-based Architectural Firm Outsourced with BOP to Receive Detailed MEP and Firefighting Drafts

About The Client

The client is an established civil architecture firm based in the United States of America. The client’s core business revolves around both designing and constructing of buildings, which requires the planning process to take place early in the project timeline. Considering that further work after the planning phase would be minimal, developing an in-house MEP planning team was not financially beneficial.

BackOffice Pro was approached to become the client’s outsourcing partner with the aim of developing a reliable partnership to tackle this high-priority project. Based on a vast portfolio of successful projects and reputation within the industry, the client opted to partner with BackOffice Pro.

Project Challenges

This development presented unique challenges which required skilled project managers and quality assurance measures:

High-level specifications - The detailed multi-level MEP infrastructures required building skilled teams of specialists to even out the workload and keep the project on track

Limited time frame - The project timeline was only six months long, presenting the challenge of productively achieving milestones while maintaining the required quality standard

Governmental building regulations - Adherence to legal and construction limitations presented a challenge. This obstacle that was overcome through the diligent management of every available resource, despite the multitude of safety checkpoints to be planned in accordance with MEP frameworks and the Fire Marshal’s health and safety codes

Local water table - Analysis of quality and quantity of the available groundwater at the construction site

Delivery Timeline Challenges

The biggest challenge our team faced was the complicated nature of many of the drawings. As a result, meeting the deadline for the Material Take Off process proved to be more demanding than originally anticipated

Revit Family Creation Process Followed by BackOffice Pro

Using prior skill and experience our team at BackOffice Pro worked diligently to ensure the client received exactly what they needed.

After our initial meeting with the client, we received the 20 images that needed to be worked on.

We started our process by creating the base drawings in AutoCAD.

For simple drawings, we directly imported into Autodesk Revit to create the models.

For the complex drawings – We extruded the parts and then exported that into Revit to create the models.

Finally, our QC lead delivered the finished products to the client for the final check.
