Mechanical & Electrical Design Solutions Delivered In-House
Practical, commercially viable in-house M&E design that integrates seamlessly with construction programmes and client requirements.
Why Choose In-House M&E Design?
Better Coordination
Mechanical and electrical design teams working together from day one, reducing clashes and simplifying coordination with the wider building design team.
Faster Problem-Solving
Direct access to the design team means issues are resolved quickly, without the delays associated with external consultants.
Enhanced Quality
Full QA review before any design is issued: calculations checked, drawings coordinated, clash detection completed in-house.
Cost Efficiency
Value engineering opportunities identified throughout the design process, not just at tender stage.
Design Flexibility
Designs that are build-able, maintainable and flexible enough to accommodate client changes without programme impact.
Our Design Services
Comprehensive M&E design services delivered entirely in-house, from initial concept through to coordinated construction issue.
Full M&E Design
From performance specification or employer's requirements through to coordinated working drawings and a full design file.
Regulatory Compliance
Building Regulations Part L, BREEAM, CDM, fire strategy integration and compliance sign-off.
Coordination & Clash Detection
Detailed coordination drawings covering pinch points, riser details and ceiling plans, all produced in-house.
Thermal Modelling & Energy Assessment
IES thermal modelling with registered LCEA capability for formal Building Regulations lodgement up to Level 5.
Value Engineering
Commercial review throughout the design process to identify opportunities for cost or performance improvement.
Documentation & QA
Full design file, system descriptions, technical proposals and RFI/change control managed via DBS document control.
Tools & Technology
RevitMEP & BIM
3D modelling and BIM-enabled coordination for complex or high-specification projects.
AutoCAD & Hevacomp
Industry-standard 2D design and M&E calculations for all project types.
Amtech & IES
Electrical design and thermal modelling software, including formal energy assessment capability.
Collaboration That Works
DBS design teams attend regular design team meetings, issue information via document control and work directly with structural engineers, architects and project managers. Flexible enough to accommodate client changes, responsive enough to keep programmes on track.
