Introduction

When our client recently won a billion-dollar US government technology contract, they immediately sprung into action, renovating one of its aging data center facilities. Our client selected a large, national electrical contractor to serve as the general contractor for the entire project (with a particular focus on the electrical and communications installations). Recognizing the emphasis that our client places on technology, this general contractor asked VEC to provide fully-integrated, turn-key construction technology implementation on the project.

As is often the case, our client’s facility had little as-built documentation; the few records that existed didn’t instill confidence in the Design and Construction team. To address this challenge, VEC deployed our Site Technology team to 3D laser scan and verify the as-built locations of the structural beams, column layout, bracing, and penetrations within the Colos.

With this crucial information, VEC led the construction BIM coordination team and provided Electrical Modeling and Detailing for deep construction coordination. We resolved clashes, optimized electrical and communication routing, and ultimately ensured constructible installation plans would be delivered to our long-standing client. Once construction begins on the project, VEC will ensure installation goes as smoothly as possible by preparing thousands of MEP layout points and a model-based MEP construction layout at the site.

VEC provided turn-key, fully integrated construction technology solutions including:
  • As-Built 3D laser scanning
  • Daily GC BIM Coordination Management
  • Cloud-based construction coordination technology platform
  • Information flow management and organization
  • Electrical and Communications systems detailing and installation plans + 3D laser scanning for installation QA/QC verification
  • Model-based MEP construction layout
It’s no wonder this client calls VEC their “easy button.”
