Peer Design Review

Two people review architectural blueprints on a table, one holding a pen and the other using a tablet, with a small house model nearby.

To Support Clients in the MEP Industry Through the Final Design Phase, We….

  • Provide a Thorough Design Review: We follow a multi-step Quality Assurance and Quality Control process that is performed in parallel to our own in-house MEP designs. Led by our design managers, we review peer design plans for code compliance, proper equipment sizing, industry standard design, and coordination. From the design narrative to the GMP set, the peer review can begin at any stage of design and extend through the post permit review process.
  • Staff Engineering Experts: With 20+ years of experience in MEP engineering design, our design professionals are active in their own engineering design projects, as well as the ones they externally review. As such, they are up to date with the latest code interpretations in multiple jurisdictions and the most current cost-effective best practices.
  • Employ a Standardized Process: By implementing a well-established Quality Assurance and Quality Control process we employ internally with our own designs; we effectively identify and catch many of the items that fall through the cracks when clients are rushing to meet tight deadlines.
  • Instill Confidence and Assurance: We understand the difficulty of creating a great set of plans, so we are mindful to not critique or redesign another engineer’s design. Instead, we use our industry expertise to identify gaps or potential challenges to ensure owners feel confident that the design they are getting is code-compliant, cost-effective, makes sense for their application, and meets their needs.
