MEP engineering and BIM services for complex building projects

BIMRACE designs building services — heating and cooling, power, water and fire protection — and delivers them as coordinated BIM models, drawings and schedules for architects, contractors, developers and engineering teams.

What we do

We design building services, and we deliver them as coordinated models

Every building needs heating, ventilation, power, water and fire protection. Those systems have to fit the building, work together and be documented well enough to construct. BIMRACE does the engineering and the BIM that gets that right.

Not sure which of these you need? Describe the project and we will tell you what the scope should be.

Who we work with

Who we work with, and what we take off their plate

The reason you would appoint us differs by where you sit on the project. Find yourself below.

Architects

What you need. You need an MEP strategy that respects the design, and services that fit the ceiling and riser space you have actually allowed for.

What we do. We design the systems and model them into your building so the coordination problems surface on screen rather than on site.

Contractors

What you need. You need coordinated MEP information before you build, not a model that disagrees with the drawings you were issued.

What we do. We coordinate the disciplines, resolve the clashes and issue drawings and schedules taken from the model that produced them.

Developers

What you need. You need the building services designed and coordinated in a way that supports your programme and your cost plan.

What we do. We deliver the design and the model as one package, so a change in the design is visible in the quantities rather than discovered later.

Engineering consultants

What you need. You need overflow capacity, or BIM production depth, without losing control of the engineering.

What we do. We work to your standards and templates as an extension of your team, and your engineer remains the one who signs.

What you receive

Design → Model → Coordinate → Document

Five steps, in the order they happen on a project. Each one produces something you can hold us to.

01

Design

MEP engineering design

Load calculations, system selection, sizing and layouts for mechanical, electrical, public health and fire protection.

02

Model

BIM and Revit modelling

Discipline models authored to the level of detail the stage needs, with the data in them rather than bolted on afterwards.

03

Coordinate

MEP coordination and clash detection

Federated models, clash and clearance checking, and a tracked route from an issue being raised to it being closed.

04

Document

Drawings, schedules and reports

Deliverables generated from the coordinated model, so the drawing and the model cannot tell you two different things.

05

Optimise

Automation and AI-assisted checking

Repetitive checking and take-off run automatically. An engineer reviews and signs the output.

Plain english

What does BIM actually mean?

Building Information Modelling is a way of representing a building and its systems digitally, so that the architect, the engineers and the construction team can coordinate the information before and during construction — rather than discovering that two systems want the same space once the ceiling is being installed.

In practice it means the ducts, cables, pipes and sprinkler mains exist as real objects with real sizes in a shared model, instead of lines on separate drawings that nobody has laid over one another. A clash is something you can see and fix on screen for the cost of an hour. The same clash found on site costs considerably more.

BIMRACE’s role is to do the MEP engineering and author that model, so the design decisions and the model agree with each other by construction rather than by correction.

How we model, and to which standards
BIM / WHY IT MATTERS
Without a coordinated model
Each discipline draws separately. Conflicts are found by a person comparing drawings, or by a contractor on site. Quantities are counted by hand.
With one
The systems occupy real space in a shared model. Conflicts are tested before issue. Drawings and schedules come out of the model that was coordinated, so they agree with it.

Proof

What we have published, and what we have not

No client has released a case study yet, so there are none on this site. Rather than fill the gap with stock imagery and numbers nobody can check, here is the structure every published project will follow — and you can ask for a walkthrough of live work at enquiry stage.

Case study anatomy

Every published case study will answer these six questions, in this order.

Structure fixed

01 Project

  • Building type and size
  • Location and jurisdiction
  • Stage at appointment
  • Project team

02 Challenge

The problem in the client's terms — what was slow, repetitive, unreliable or unresolvable at the scale of the project.

03 Our scope

  • Disciplines engineered
  • Modelling and coordination scope
  • Level of information need
  • What stayed with others

04 Approach

  • How the systems were designed
  • How the model was structured
  • What was automated, and what was not
  • Where the engineer reviewed

05 Deliverables

  • Drawings and schedules issued
  • Models and formats handed over
  • Reports and issue records
  • Dates and revisions

06 Outcome

Measured against a stated baseline, with the measurement method named. Where a number cannot be verified, the case study will say so rather than estimate one.

Failures and dead ends will be published alongside successes. A case study library with no failures in it is a brochure.

This site publishes no client logos, no project counts and no testimonials, because none have been earned and verified yet. See the projects page.

Why BIMRACE

Stated as things you can check at enquiry stage

Adjectives are free. These are claims you can test in a conversation, which is when you should test them.

01MEP depth, not MEP as an add-on
Building services are the centre of the practice. Mechanical, electrical, public health and fire protection are treated as connected systems with real spatial constraints, not as coloured tubes in an architectural model.
02Engineering and BIM from one team
The people authoring the model are the people who sized the systems in it. You are not managing a design consultant and a modelling bureau who each blame the other for the coordination.
03Information-first modelling
Parameters are populated while the model is authored, not retro-fitted before handover. It is unglamorous, and it is the reason schedules and automated checks can be trusted later.
04Standards-aligned by default
Naming, status codes, federation and delivery are structured to ISO 19650 principles on every appointment, not only where a client mandates it. We are not certified to it and do not claim to be.
05Automation drafts, engineers decide
No routine writes to a live model, closes an issue or issues a deliverable. A named engineer accepts, amends or rejects every automated output, and their name goes on it.
06Published capability status
Anything on this site that is in development or on the roadmap is labelled as such. If you find a claim here we cannot demonstrate at enquiry stage, that is a defect and we want to hear about it.
DELIVERY / WORLDWIDE

North America

Australia

International delivery

Serving project teams worldwide

BIMRACE works remotely with project teams across North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia-Pacific, to the code and drawing conventions of the project’s own jurisdiction.

We have one office, in India, and we say so plainly: the delivery model is a remote engineering team working to your standards and your programme, with overlap arranged around your working day. There are no overseas branches behind the pages below.

How remote delivery works

Engineering + BIM + AI

Automation and AI support the engineering. They do not replace it.

BIMRACE is building internal workflows that connect engineering data, BIM models and AI-assisted checking. They make the work faster and more consistent. The business is still MEP engineering, BIM coordination and design delivery, and a named engineer is accountable for every output. Each capability below is labelled with what it actually is today.

Automated model checking Live

Naming, parameters, clearances and sizing bands tested across the whole model rather than the parts someone had time to open.

BIM automation

AI-assisted analysis In development

Model information read to flag coordination risks and anomalies for an engineer to evaluate. It drafts findings; it does not resolve them.

AI & automation

MCP for Revit Roadmap

A governed protocol for connecting AI assistants to model data, so a question about the model can be asked in words.

MCP for Revit

Digital twin Roadmap

A twin needs a model, asset data, live data, engineering rules and analytics. We deliver the first two, and structure models so the rest stays possible.

What a twin requires

The full picture, layer by layer, with what is running at each one: capability status.
