Integrating BIM to Improve MEP Services
          
           Today’s demanding business environment is driving a push in the direction of more proficiency and integration in building industry supply chains. Proprietors are asking for better built buildings for significantly less money in less time. Architects, Engineers and Contractors are under pressure to streamline their building designs and delivery process – seeking out solutions to enhance productivity, lower costs, and provide better-quality products.

            The success of BIM for building design – as demonstrated by the rapid adoption of BIM solutions such as Autodesk Revit Building software – is redefining clients’ perceptions of their MEP consultants. BIM for MEP is a design methodology defined by the conception and use of coordinated, constant computable details regarding a building’s MEP design. It includes the information utilized for design decision-making, development of precise documentation, envisaging performance , cost estimating as well as construction planning, and, eventually, for handling and operating the facility.


            Several key principles of Revit Systems are fundamental to comprehend how BIM impacts the MEP design process: the utilization of a computable building model, holistic design, as well as parametric change management.
