Service 02 · MEP Coordination
Clashes resolved in the model, not on site.
Trade models federated, conflicts reviewed and every revision tracked through to closure.
The challenge
Clashes surface too late.
Trade models are federated late and revisions aren't tracked cleanly. Conflicts that should have been caught in the model end up being resolved on site, where they cost the most.
What we deliver
Three ways MEP Coordination supports your team.
Model federation and clash detection
Trade models brought together and reviewed for hard clashes and clearances.
Issue tracking for coordination meetings
Every issue logged with a reference, owner, priority and status, ready for each meeting.
Model revisions to agreed resolutions
Models updated to the resolutions agreed with your team, then rechecked.
