Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Integrated Project Delivery (IPD)

Coastal Mechanical Services, LLC (Coastal) has provided CAD services for the last 20 years, with 3D CAD being offered the last 7 years. Coastal stays on leading edge of BIM technology and has fully integrated our services to follow the design industry standards and innovations. With 10 Designers on staff Coastal provides a wide range of trade knowledge and flexibility as part of our BIM services.

As a result, Coastal has developed a true understanding of the meaning of Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) and what Collaborative Project Delivery is truly about.

Coastal’s Collaborative Project Delivery Philosophy

Collaborative Project Delivery is about team-work. Being able to integrate organizations and people with regards to their cultures, their technical and organizational abilities, their business interests and their work processes.

Integrating project organizations is done in the interest of providing a supportive and collaborative project environment which allows the team to meet the owner objectives.
