As an M&E consultant or contractor, Revit and working in 3D is very important. However, using Revit alone is not enough to give you a competitive edge in today’s market. Using MEP BIM software created exclusively for the MEP industry can provide M&E consultants and contractors with a higher level of efficiency and accuracy
Using specialist MEP BIM software that sits within your Revit projects can benefit M&E consultants and contractors in various ways. Here are just a few of the main benefits.
Identify and resolve clashes
Do you find it hard to minimise rework on-site? MEP BIM software can identify clashes in the design stage, preventing any errors occurring on site and allowing the issue to be resolved before fabrication commences.
Integrated M&E calculations
Are you currently producing calculations by hand or outside of your 3D model? This can be a lengthy process, with mistakes being hard to spot. A sophisticated MEP BIM software comes with integrated M&E calculations helping you to improve the accuracy of your model whilst saving you time.
Have instant access to high-quality content items
Do you spend too much time looking for up-to-date item information? When using MEP BIM software, you can access manufacturer-managed content items without leaving Revit. This allows your models to be accurate, and you have the confidence that the component specifications are correct and up-to-date.
