Technical Capabilities
Civil & Structural Modelling, Drafting and Detailing Capabilities
The capability an engineering package needs depends on more than a software name: compatibility with approved design information, coordinates, discipline references, fabrication practice, revisions and agreed formats.
Technical Deliverables
Each assignment is evaluated against the expertise available for its drafting, modelling, steel detailing, concrete documentation or plant-model requirements. Each capability area is owned by one service, so you know exactly which scope to request.

File Formats & Workflow
Compatibility is agreed, not assumed. We confirm the available software versions, model compatibility, exchange formats and drawing requirements during technical scope review, then agree the deliverable formats that can be supported.
Native file ownership, exchange and version compatibility and licensing restrictions are defined by the contract. A 3D model is not a verified fabrication drawing set, and a model viewer is not complete design coordination.
Can you receive and hand over our native CAD or plant-model version?
Share the software and version, a sample file, the expected outputs and your project exchange rules so compatibility can be checked before the scope is agreed.
- 01
Confirm Platform and Version
The software and version the package must be delivered in, and whether that is available for the package.
- 02
Agree Native and Exchange Formats
For example editable DWG or DGN, PDF, native Tekla files, IFC or other compatible model exchanges, XLSX / CSV material reports, and NC / DSTV machine files only where demonstrably producible for the package.
- 03
Test the Exchange Early
A first file is exchanged and opened on both sides before production volume builds up.
- 04
Record It in the Scope
Formats, versions and naming are written into the scope of work and the deliverables list.
