Modeling & Detailing
Vendor & Mechanical Equipment

Mechanical Equipment and Vendor Systems a Coordinated Approach
Vendor equipment modeling, when precisely controlled, offers powerful development, procurement and asset management opportunities. At DBM Vircon, we have a deep understanding and experience managing and developing projects where vendor supplied items can number in the tens of thousands.
DBM Vircon’s precise and data rich 3D models and collaborative processes allow for the seamless integration of vendor and mechanical equipment into complex building system models. Our 3D models facilitate all aspects of vendor and mechanical equipment design co-ordination and procurement, to ensure constructibility and maintainability. These models can be used for executing both greenfield and brownfield projects, retrofitting designs and visualizing existing facilities with clarity and certainty.

Vendor & Mechanical Equipment Modeling & Detailing – Delivery
DBM Vircon’s Approach
Working closely and collaboratively with our clients, we offer a full range of services suited to providing not only highly accurate geometric vendor and mechanical equipment models, but the management and control of metadata rich components, assemblies and sub-assemblies for all phases of the project life cycle, from procurement through to ongoing asset management.
When the associated metadata is considered, the management of data fields can count in the millions. Trusted automated workflows, data management and collaborative systems are essential in the management of such large dynamic and variable data sets with their associated component geometries.
Our vendor design and modeling team use a combination of parametric software solutions such as Revit, Advance Steel, Tekla and others to accurately model vendor and mechanical equipment for incorporating into working models for interfacing with other disciplines across all industries and sectors.
