MEP

MEP engineering (or mechanical, electrical, and plumbing) is an important and ever-expanding part of the construction industry. MEP engineers play a critical role in a project’s ultimate success. They are responsible for more than simply the design and implementation of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems. Their work also includes the design of fire protection systems, building automation, energy consulting, and sustainable building design. They are important not only for their role in design but also for their role in assisting with audits of the project’s workflow and specifications. MEP engineers greatly enhance the smooth flow of the project by serving as a centralized source of information and advice for design, purchasing, and installation decisions. They are able to bring about these benefits through ongoing input at every stage of the project’s life cycle. They often assist in construction coordination and administration. Instead of isolating each separate aspect of MEP engineering, this holistic process quite naturally leads to higher efficiency, greater productivity, clearer communication, and higher standards of safety. These results also impact financial considerations. As specialists in the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing fields, MEP engineers are uniquely equipped to help building owners stay under budget, maximize their investment, and make strategic decisions about materials, processes, and technologies.
