Case Study: Industrial Instruments Distributor achieves efficient MEP layout support with Flatworld Solutions

Flatworld Provided MEP Service Support for Electrical and Plumbing Layouts to an Industrial Instruments Distributor

Industrial Instruments Distributor, based in Irvine, California, needed MEP support for plumbing and electrical layouts in a 3-storey, 150,000-square-foot building. The project required converting electrical single-line diagrams and hand sketches into AutoCAD layouts while avoiding clashes with other services, but the team faced incomplete information, unclear instructions, and a tight timeline. Flatworld Solutions was brought in to provide the drafting and engineering support.

Flatworld Solutions assembled a project manager, team leader, and three mechanical engineers to collect the sketches, create templates, and convert the drawings into AutoCAD files using three separate drawing sets. By clarifying requirements early, scaling the team, and applying stronger project controls, Flatworld Solutions improved time efficiency and ensured quality while delivering files securely via Dropbox. The case study does not cite exact numeric results, but it highlights successful completion of a complex, time-sensitive MEP project with a practical, cost-effective approach.
