What Do Our Preconstruction Services in Canada Cover?

Optimar Precon supports project teams in Canada with BIM, CAD, construction estimating, quantity takeoff and construction documentation. The selected scope follows the available project information and agreed deliverables.

Preconstruction services supporting BIM CAD estimating and construction documentation in Canada
Preconstruction support can combine modeling, drafting, quantity, estimating and documentation requirements within a defined project scope.
Integrated Preconstruction Support

Build the Service Scope Around the Project Requirement

A project may require one technical service or several connected preconstruction disciplines. The scope can therefore follow the project files, stage and required outputs.

This can include BIM models, CAD drawings, construction estimates, quantity takeoffs and supporting project documentation.

Preconstruction Outputs

What Can Be Included in the Project Scope?

Final deliverables depend on the selected service and supplied project information. A scope may include one output or several connected deliverables.

BIM Models Modeling outputs for the agreed project scope.
CAD Drawings 2D and 3D technical drawing documentation.
Cost Estimates Estimate outputs for the defined scope.
Quantity Takeoffs Measured quantities for selected project trades.
Project Documentation Documentation for agreed technical requirements.
Project Sectors

Preconstruction Support Across Canadian Project Types

The existing Canada service scope includes commercial, residential, industrial and infrastructure projects.

Commercial Preconstruction support for defined commercial project requirements.
Residential Technical support for defined residential project scopes.
Industrial Preconstruction support for defined industrial requirements.
Infrastructure Support for defined infrastructure project scopes.
Scope Basis

Preconstruction outputs are prepared from supplied project information and the agreed service scope. Final design decisions, statutory approvals, code compliance and construction responsibility remain with the responsible project professionals.

Canada Preconstruction Workflow

How Can a Preconstruction Scope Move From Project Files to Deliverables?

The workflow starts with the available project information, the selected service and the outputs required for the agreed scope.

Preconstruction project files and technical scope review for Canadian construction projects
The project setup can begin with drawings, models, specifications, BOQs, markups or other available project information.
Project Inputs

Start With the Information Available for the Project

The required inputs vary by service. Available project information is reviewed before the deliverables, disciplines and working scope are confirmed.

Project Workflow

A Defined Six-Step Preconstruction Process

The exact sequence can vary with the selected service, project stage and information supplied.

01 Review Project Information Review the supplied drawings, models, specifications and other available project files.
02 Confirm Service Scope Define the required discipline, deliverables, file formats and project requirements.
03 Prepare Deliverables Develop the agreed BIM, CAD, estimating, takeoff or documentation outputs.
04 Review Against Scope Check prepared outputs against the supplied information and agreed project scope.
05 Incorporate Agreed Revisions Address agreed comments, redlines or project updates within the defined scope.
06 Issue Agreed Outputs Provide the completed files in the agreed formats for the project team.
Connected Services

How Preconstruction Outputs Can Connect

Where the project requires more than one service, outputs from one scope can support the next agreed workstream.

BIM → Coordination Model information can support coordination activities.
CAD → Documentation Drawing outputs can support project documentation requirements.
Drawings → Takeoff Drawing packages can form the basis of quantity takeoff work.
Takeoff → Estimating Measured quantities can support the agreed estimating scope.
Redlines → Updates Agreed markups can support revisions to project outputs.
Multiple Disciplines Connected service requirements can be structured within one scope.
Scope Review

Review Work Against the Agreed Requirement

The project files, required outputs and defined scope provide the basis for reviewing the work.

Agreed Revisions

Incorporate Project Comments and Updates

Revisions can be incorporated when comments, redlines or updated project information fall within the agreed scope.

Scalable Project Support

Structure Support Around the Current Requirement

Preconstruction support can be arranged around one defined task, a larger project, several connected services or recurring project requirements.

Defined Task Support one clearly defined technical requirement.
Single Project Structure support around one project package.
Multi-Service Scope Combine several connected preconstruction services.
Ongoing Support Structure recurring support around continuing project requirements.
Workflow Basis

The actual workflow, review stages, revision process and deliverables depend on the agreed service scope and the project information supplied.

Have Project Files Ready for Review?

Send the available drawings, models, specifications or project information and outline the required preconstruction scope.

Preconstruction Support Across Canadian Project Requirements

BIM, CAD, estimating, quantity takeoff and documentation support can be structured around different project types and technical requirements.

01 Commercial Projects Support for defined commercial preconstruction requirements.
02 Residential Projects Support for defined residential project scopes.
03 Industrial Projects Support for defined industrial project requirements.
04 Infrastructure Projects Preconstruction support for defined infrastructure scopes.
Large-Scale & Enterprise Projects

Support Multi-Discipline Preconstruction Requirements

Larger project scopes can involve several technical workstreams. The service requirement can combine modeling, drafting, quantity, estimating and documentation support where applicable.

Multi-Discipline Scope Combine several preconstruction services within one defined requirement.
Large Drawing Packages Support substantial drawing, model and documentation packages.
Recurring Requirements Structure support around repeated project needs.
Project-Based Capacity Add technical support around defined project demand.
Outsourced Preconstruction Capacity

Add Support Around the Current Project Workload

External preconstruction support can be structured around a short-term requirement, one larger project, several disciplines or recurring project demand.

Short-Term Scope Support one defined temporary project requirement.
Project Support Add capacity for one defined project package.
Multi-Service Support Combine BIM, CAD, estimating and takeoff requirements.
Ongoing Requirements Structure recurring support around continuing project needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Preconstruction Services in Canada FAQs

Common questions about preconstruction scope, project support and service delivery for Canadian projects.

What project sectors can your preconstruction services in Canada support?

Preconstruction support can be structured for commercial, residential, industrial and infrastructure projects. The selected scope can include BIM, CAD, estimating, quantity takeoff and documentation services.

How can preconstruction support help during project review?

BIM, CAD, estimating and quantity takeoff work can help project teams review coordination, drawing, quantity and cost information from supplied files. The findings depend on the available information and agreed scope.

Can you support large-scale or ongoing preconstruction requirements?

Support can be structured around a defined project, a multi-service package or recurring project requirements. Capacity, deliverables and timing are confirmed against the agreed scope and available project information.

Can Canadian project standards or requirements be incorporated into the work?

Relevant project requirements can be incorporated when they are supplied or clearly defined for the project. Final compliance, statutory approvals and professional responsibility remain with the responsible project professionals.

Can you support international project teams working on projects in Canada?

Service delivery can support Canada-based and international project teams working on Canadian projects. Project files, required outputs and coordination methods are agreed for each scope.
