Proactive vs. Reactive Project Management
How
Coordination Drawings Help You Lead the Way
Saving money, making more profit, and completing projects smoothly,
with fewer headaches are goals everyone can agree on.
But say things like “improved efficiency,” and “proactive project
management,” and suddenly it sounds like too much effort to change.
At ZEN M.E.P., we understand how easily putting out fires can become
a way of life, but it doesn’t have to be that way.
Embracing Proactive Project Management can be a game changer for your
customers, employees, suppliers, and your bottom line.
In the field is where we see clearly how
Information Modeling and Coordination Drawings can improve all M.E.P. installations.
B.I.M. and Coordination Drawings
B.I.M. is simply the “virtual construction” of a building before the
foundation is dug. Using modern software, B.I.M. considers time and cost
in an integral way with design.
By using Building Information Modeling techniques,
ZEN M.E.P is able to provide
coordination drawings that make the life of every Project Manager,
Superintendent, and Foreman far easier.
Our detailed and precise coordination drawings eliminate conflict
between contractors and develop an installation plan that is objectively
best for the project as a whole - while saving you time, money, and
waste.
Who Benefits and How?
Project Management and Administration
- Project Managers are able to capture change orders in real time,
reduce RFIs, and minimize conflicts between the trades.

efficiency increases.
