BIM Modeling Construction Documentation & Permitting

Accurate BIM and Revit modeling provides a strong foundation for better coordination, documentation, visualization, and project communication.

Whether you need a project modeled from existing plans, support developing a residential design, or additional Revit capacity during a busy phase of a project, we can integrate into your workflow and provide dependable modeling support.

What's Included

• Revit BIM modeling from architectural plans and reference documents

• 3D architectural modeling of residential and commercial projects

• Development of walls, floors, roofs, doors, windows, stairs, and architectural elements

• Existing-condition and proposed-condition modeling

• Revit families and architectural components as required

• Coordination with architectural drawings and design intent

• Model updates and revisions

Deliverables & File Formats

• Revit project files (.RVT)

• Revit families (.RFA), when applicable

• 2D drawing exports in PDF

• CAD exports in DWG, when required

• IFC exports available upon request

• Other file formats available depending on project requirements

Typical Turnaround

Turnaround varies based on project size, model complexity, and required level of development. Smaller modeling assignments may be completed within several business days, while larger projects are scheduled according to scope and project deadlines.

Getting a project through the permitting process can be time-consuming, especially when documentation, revisions, and jurisdictional requirements compete with the demands of running a business. We provide construction documentation and permitting support to help move residential projects from design development toward permit submission.

We can assist with preparing clear, coordinated drawing sets and navigating the documentation needed for permit review. Services can be tailored to the needs of the project and the level of documentation already available.

For projects in Arizona, we can provide support with documentation and permit preparation for jurisdictions within the Phoenix metro area. Permit requirements vary by city and project type, so each project is reviewed individually to determine the appropriate scope of services.

What's Included

• Construction documentation set

• Architectural floor plans

• Roof plans

• Exterior elevations (interior elevations on request)

• Building sections

• Wall sections and architectural details (on request)

• Door and window schedules

• Code-related documentation as required by project scope

• Drawing set organization and coordination

• Permit submission support

• Responses and revisions related to plan review, when included in the project scope

Deliverables & File Formats

• Permit-ready PDF drawing sets

• Construction document PDF sets

• Revit project files (.RVT), when included in the scope

• CAD files (.DWG), when applicable

• Supporting schedules and documentation

• Additional formats available based on project requirements

Typical Turnaround

Initial construction document and permit preparation timelines vary based on project size, complexity, jurisdiction, and the completeness of the information provided. Smaller residential projects may be prepared within several weeks, while larger or more complex projects require a customized schedule. Permit review timelines are determined by the applicable jurisdiction and are outside of the document preparation timeline.
