When you are on a multidisciplinary team working together to design and execute a building plan, having everyone up-to-date and working in unison towards a single goal can be challenging. With MEP professionals, it is critical to have every detail solidified and communicated to others on the team. When problems do arise—such as delivery delays or measurement mishaps—it is essential that you have a way to make sure the team is aware of this and can adapt accordingly.
Revit responds to many of the problems MEP designers and their team members face during the product management process. For example, with Revit’s intuitive user interface and expansive compatibility with other file types, MEP designers can integrate their changes and updates directly onto the platform with the click of a button.
Examples of MEP Product Management Pitfalls
Managing a large-scale project can be a daunting undertaking, with the potential for many minute parts to either work together seamlessly or create a spiral of miscommunications that delay the end goal. Many issues that arise on the MEP side of things tend to revolve around misunderstandings, clerical errors, and failures to update the proper systems as problems occur during the project.
For example, the electrical team handling the wiring in the main office may forget to update the other teams about the availability of specific hardware. As a result, materials arrive late or are the wrong size or type, all because of a clerical error and inter-team miscommunication. With Revit’s intuitive and easy-to-use interface, you can easily communicate and track updates during the lifecycle of the project.
How Revit Solves Many Management Problems That Arise
Revit is revolutionizing how architects, builders, and MEP professionals create, manage, and realize multi-faceted building projects. With the Revit program, an architect can create dynamic plans that span from the initial conception and sketches of the building all the way to delegating specific parts of the project to other team members. In turn, the architect and MEP professionals are able to interact with the models, provide vital updates, and adjust the timeline or specifications.
Instead of relying on static, manual systems, Revit provides a dynamic space for MEP professionals to use responsive and comprehensive systems that are repeatable, accessible, and user-friendly. Since Revit is compatible with hundreds of other file types, it facilitates the preservation of all documentary aspects of a project in one place and allows for greater interdisciplinary communication. Revit keeps a robust, cloud-based library of the version history of a project, so team members do not have to worry about their plans getting lost in the process of making changes.
