BIM

Building information modeling (BIM) diagramAt University Mechanical Engineering Contractors (UMEC-CA), we are always searching for ways to make our service offerings more efficient. That’s why we were one of the earliest adopters of building information modeling (BIM) in the country.

Employing more than thirty fully trained detailers and modelers—and with access to more than two hundred mechanical and plumbing detailers through our parent company EMCOR Group — UMEC-CA has the resources to manage any large-scale BIM project.

Success Through Collaboration 

At our dedicated coordination facility, we offer our 700-square-foot BIM coordination room to any of our clients in order to assist them in their project needs. Owners, architects, engineers, construction managers, and other subcontractors can collaborate on the BIM strategy and develop the integrated graphics and data systems needed to analyze the facility through 3D visualization.

This process allows us to:

  • Identify and resolve constructability issues early in the project’s life cycle
  • Evaluate various system and equipment options
  • Develop efficient trade and purchasing schedules
  • Maximize prefabrication opportunities
  • Coordinate scheduling
  • Reduce costs
  • Eliminate redundant work
  • Optimize safety

Unique BIM Capabilities

We can prefabricate or modularize virtually any project, including:

  • Underground piping
  • Complete plumbing systems and fixtures
  • Hydronic systems
  • Ductwork
  • Equipment skids
  • Hangers
  • Seismic restraints

Progressive Technology

Because of our unmatched experience with BIM, we're able to integrate total station and laser scanning capabilities with our preplanning process. In addition, our cloud-based document management programs allow each detailer and modeler to have instant access to the most current project data available.
