Most Commonly Outsourced Tasks
UAE consultancies most often outsource ELV/ICT system modelling within a larger architectural or MEP model, custom family creation for equipment that isn't in a standard manufacturer library, and general modelling overflow during tender submission or design-development crunch periods. Clash detection and coordination support is another common request, particularly on projects with a compressed BIM coordination schedule.
Keeping Your Own Standards
Outsourcing doesn't mean adopting someone else's modelling conventions. Work is done in your project's existing Revit template, family library and BIM Execution Plan — matching your naming conventions, parameter setup and LOD requirements exactly, so the output slots directly into your project model without requiring your in-house team to rework it to match standards.
What a Typical Engagement Looks Like
Most engagements start with a short scoping call to review the BEP and current model state, followed by an agreed modelling schedule with defined delivery milestones. Models are exchanged through your existing CDE (BIM 360, Autodesk Construction Cloud, or equivalent), reviewed by your team, and revised based on markup — the same cycle you'd run with an in-house resource, just distributed across time zones in a way that often lets revisions turn around overnight.
