Revit MEP
Revit Building Information Modelling software helps engineers, designers and contractors across the mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) disciplines model to a high level of detail and co-ordinate with building project contributors. Streamline the engineering design process with Revit. Use a single model to enhance the communication of design intent, before construction begins. Conduct simulations and interference detection earlier in the design process. Use conceptual energy analysis data for engineering-driven calculations. Design, model and document building systems in the context of a full building information model, including architectural and structural components. Model for MEP fabrication with tools that automate the fabrication model layout. Prepare a model for detailed co-ordination of fabrication and installation. Revit helps team improve accuracy, and speed delivery.

BIMPro
BIMPro is design automation software for fast-paced mechanical, electrical, and plumbing contractors that increases design quality, eliminates the bore of dimensioning and tagging, and improves productivity up to 10x over the competition. By leveraging the power of your industry experience and ours, BIMPro’s rule-based automation allows users to quickly automate fabrication spool & sheet creation, hanger placement, point layout, shop drawings and more. Auto Spool rapidly creates assemblies using construction logic and project parameters to ensure that what gets fabricated in the shop will work for the field. DYI Spool Sheets easily automates the placement of views, dimensions, tags, and more. Whether you are placing dimensions on 3D views or Weld Mapping, let BIMPro MEP automate it. Empower design teams by removing tedious hurdles like properly placing hangers throughout a model. Collaborate with layout teams in the field by automating point placement and reporting.

Stratus
Stratus is a cloud-based construction workflow and fabrication management platform built specifically for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing contractors that unifies design, fabrication, shop production, and field operations into a single connected system, eliminating disconnected paper and PDF workflows while boosting efficiency, accuracy, and collaboration across teams. It integrates directly with industry CAD and BIM software such as Revit, AutoCAD, and Autodesk Fabrication tools so contractors can convert digital models into fabricable work packages, generate cut lists, BOMs, and automated labels, and send data directly to shop equipment without manual translation, reducing errors and rework while improving speed and precision on the shop floor. Stratus centralizes project planning, custom work package creation, real-time tracking, material management, and status reporting so teams have visibility into productivity and progress.
