Outsourcing of Shop Drawings Pays Off for Contractors and Manufacturers, Insights BluEntCAD
Dallas, Texas, October 13, 2014 : Shop Drawings are an important part of every construction project. They provide accurate information related to each aspect of the pre-fabricated components of the project to be designed. Quality shop drawings contain accurate representations of a product and the information i.e. dimensions and specifications that are needed by the architect or engineer to develop that product. Once you have ensured that the information compiled in shop drawings is accurate, the project success is guaranteed.
Shop drawings communicate how well a contractor or manufacturer has understood the design intent and form the submittals that are sent to the architect or engineer for approval. Moreover, they require proficiency in the use of computer-aided design (CAD) tools and expensive CAD software. For these reasons, contractors and manufacturers prefer to outsource the drafting work. Outsourcing shop drawings drafting to a professional CAD designer ensures accurate drafting and avoids inaccuracies that can otherwise lead to mass errors in the final product. Outsourcing also proves to be cost effective as setting up an entire department to design shop drawings and purchasing CAD tools involves high costs.
