  • Leveraging BIM enables fast-tracking of the design process. And using tools like Revit makes it easy to visualize and conceptualize mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) systems, identify potential problems, and work collectively to find solutions, thereby spending less time correcting changes. Collaborating on the front end also minimizes the likelihood that costly design changes will have to be made on the jobsite.

    Revit also enables the use of third-party tools which allows MEP engineers to reduce requests for information (RFIs) and better define design intent when building out mechanical rooms or customizing assemblies specific to the project at hand. This improves design accuracy and simplifies the construction process by allowing parts to be spooled directly from the approved design, amplifying Revit’s functionality, while providing time-saving tools for pipe routing and editing of the piping system design.

    By utilizing BIM, project managers can instantly identify clashes, create routing alternatives, run cost reports, and update current fabrication documents directly in the fabrication shop using connected workflows.
