M/E/P Programming
E&C's programming services, provided separately or in conjunction with architectural space programming, establish and document the M/E/P related issues on a project. Typical programming services include:
- Needs Assessment. E&C interviews key facility users, determining the current and future M/E/P requirements to support their operations. Our experience with a wide variety of users allows us to ask the right questions to properly determine needs and assist users in setting priorities.
- Equipment Requirements. We review user equipment to establish overall M/E/P system requirements for the facility. Initially installed equipment requirements are documented establishing specific support requirements. Where actual equipment has not been identified, generic requirements are established providing the flexibility to accommodate an appropriate range of equipment options.
- Design Concepts. E&C develops design options and concepts that meet the users needs and equipment requirements.
- Probable Construction Cost. Needs and requirements entail costs. Our cost projections provide the input necessary to establish project budgets and develop project priorities.
- M/E/P Program Document. We produce a concise document, quantifying all of the M/E/P needs, requirements, concepts and their projected costs for the facility.
