CAD Drawings for a UK-based Construction Company

Outsource2india's efficient CAD drawing and detailing services helps UK-based Construction Company restore old buildings

The Client

The client is a consultancy based out of London that has been providing project management services to clients for more than 60 years. They needed a partner who could cost-effectively produce CAD drawings of old residential homes for a restoration project. The following was required -

• Careful preparation of CAD drawings to fit the needs of each project.
• CAD drawings that could be presented to the Housing Council for approval.
• A partner who had specific experience in this field and could meet both the time and cost requirements of the client.

Project Challenges

The project required an extensively detailed CAD drawing for old residential buildings. This proved especially challenging because each building had several factors that required additional work. These challenges included -

• Buildings had minute design details that required careful and accurate detailing from the team.
• Every design need to be covered and detailed as much as possible, which was quite time consuming.
• The exact height of the buildings wasn't always provided, which proved to be problematic in scaling the project. In these cases, the team had to count bricks and gauge the height of those buildings. This was quite time intensive.

The Solution

To ensure the speedy and accurate completion of this project, the Outsource2india team completed the following -

• A free trial was provided to the client before starting the project in full.
• After successful completion of the trial, the client was happy and four resources were assigned to work exclusively on the project.
• The team was provided information needed for the project, including the Ordnance Survey (OS) map for each property, dimensions of the buildings, and the plot numbers.
• The team then scaled each building and drafted CAD designs using AutoCAD.
• Final quality checks were performed by the Quality Assurance team and the resulting files were shared with the client via Dropbox.

The Results

As a result of the efforts taken by the Outsource2india team and the careful attention to detail throughout the project, the drawings were completed to an accuracy of 100%, fully satisfying the needs of the client.

The cost-effective approach of the O2I engineering team was able to reduce the in-house costs of the client by 40%. In the end of the client was highly satisfied with the results and since outsourced additional projects to the team.
