BIM & VDC SERVICES
BIM Coordination
Enterprise, multidisciplinary BIM execution plan management and model federation support across your entire
project team.
Our Founding and Mission
Introduction
NexMEP Global LLC supports U.S. consulting firms with enterprise BIM coordination — the governance layer that sits above individual discipline models, managing the BIM execution plan, model federation standards, and multidisciplinary coordination process across an entire project team. This service is distinct from the discipline-specific BIM coordination we provide within our Structural Engineering service line, which focuses narrowly on the structural model’s own authoring standards and internal clash resolution. Here, our scope is the whole project: how every discipline’s model comes together, how coordination responsibility is assigned, and how the BIM execution plan is maintained and enforced throughout design.
Our team manages this governance layer working from the BIM execution plan and coordination protocol your firm establishes, keeping every contributing discipline’s model aligned to a common standard without taking engineering design authority away from any individual discipline’s engineer of record.
DESIGN ACCURACY & COMPLIANCE
Why This Service Matters
Multidisciplinary BIM coordination fails most often not because any single discipline’s model is wrong, but because the disciplines were never brought together under a consistently enforced set of shared standards — shared coordinates, consistent LOD expectations, and a clear coordination meeting cadence. Without a dedicated party managing this governance layer, the burden typically falls unevenly on whichever discipline’s staff has the most BIM experience, pulling them away from their own design responsibilities.
Production support gives your project a dedicated party responsible for BIM execution plan management and cross-discipline standards enforcement, freeing every discipline’s engineers to focus on their own design work while still participating in a well-run, consistently governed coordination process.
Our Capabilities
BEP Development & Governance
Establishing, updating, and enforcing the project-wide BIM Execution Plan across all participating teams.
Shared Coordinate Management
Establishing and verifying shared coordinate systems and model origins to eliminate spatial drift.
LOD Tracking & Milestone Verification
Auditing discipline models to ensure Level of Development milestones align with design phase requirements.
Meeting Facilitation & Action Tracking
Leading weekly/biweekly coordination sessions, generating meeting minutes, and assigning task ownership.
Team & Discipline Onboarding
Guiding new consultants and sub-consultants into established model environments and protocols.
Phase Transition Management
Managing smooth handoffs of model ownership and coordination rules from design into construction.
Calculations
Engineering Calculations
Calculation methodology built for accurate, traceable HVAC equipment sizing.
Model Alignment & Milestone Tracking
Cross-referencing model updates against each discipline's engineering milestones to ensure data synchronization.
Governance & Compliance Documentation
Validating that parameter schemas, system naming, and model geometries conform to BEP governance standards.
Calculations
Systems We Support
Ventilation-related calculation support includes outdoor air rate compilation.
Architectural Models
Building enclosures, interior partitions, vertical circulation, and room parameters.
Mechanical (HVAC) Systems
Air distribution, equipment rooms, hydronic piping, and ductwork runs.
Electrical Infrastructure
Lighting layouts, power distribution, cable trays, and main gear clearances.
Plumbing & Fire Protection
Gravity/pressure piping networks, riser shafts, and fire sprinkler mains.
Structural Framing & Foundations
Primary steel/concrete framing, shear walls, foundation pads, and rebar.
Civil Site Integration
Exterior utility tie-ins, pad geometry, hardscape, and site topography models.
Our enterprise BIM coordination scope spans every building discipline, unifying architectural, engineering, and trade models into a cohesive, fully aligned federated project environment.
Calculations
Software, Workflow & Coordination
Rigorous backup calculations formatted directly for permit submission and QA/QC documentation.
Software & Production Workflow
Managed within Common Data Environments (CDE) including Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) and BIM 360, utilizing Navisworks for model federation. We run structured coordination cadences with clear meeting agendas and automated issue tracking logs.
Revit & AutoCAD Coordination
Active origin and coordinate verification prevents silent spatial misalignment across discipline links. We continuously track LOD progression and flag any discipline lagging behind project milestone requirements before meetings occur.
Calculations
Systems We Support
Expertise across diverse equipment lines, hybrid configurations, and complex Electrical setups.
