Architectural, Engineering & FF&E Consulting Services
Comprehensive engineering studies, approved shop drawings, and professional FF&E sourcing
TL;DR Summary
SMD Group delivers architectural planning, engineering design, quantity surveying (BOQ), and permit coordination using BIM (Revit). We manage large-scale FF&E procurement for hospitality and commercial developments, utilizing a verified network of Turkish and European manufacturing leaders.
What is included in shop drawings and BOQ services provided by SMD Group?
Our services include drafting highly detailed, coordinated shop drawings for architectural, structural, and electromechanical (MEP) systems, alongside Joinery details. We resolve spatial coordination conflicts (Clash Coordination) and compile precise Bill of Quantities (BOQs) and material technical specifications to prevent price inflation.
Scope & Key Deliverables
Feasibility studies, site condition assessments, and laser-precise surveys (As-Is)
Development of architectural, structural, and detailed facade shop drawings
Electromechanical (MEP) layout drafting and spatial clash coordination
Building Information Modeling (BIM/Revit), 3D photorealistic walk-through animations
Precise Bill of Quantities (BOQ) compilation and technical specs books creation
End-to-end management, sourcing, and delivery of hotel and commercial FF&E packages
Engineering & Consulting Phases Breakdown
We coordinate all phases of large-scale architecture, engineering, and procurement:
Pre-project & Feasibility
Site physical condition reports, zoning restrictions analysis, risk management registers, and cost-control value engineering.
Architectural & Spatial Planning
Structural space allocation, facade envelope detailed design, building partitions, and full engineering details.
Interior Design & Decors
Concept board creation, localized finishes scheduling, lighting calculations, decorative ceiling details, and joinery detailing.
Engineering Design (MEP)
Electrical load schedules, power & lighting diagrams, low current (structured cabling, IP CCTV, access control), sanitary plumbing, and HVAC coordinates.
Sourcing & Procurement (FF&E)
Sourcing of custom hotel, residential and office furniture, heavy-duty commercial kitchen appliances, and bespoke lighting fixtures direct from leading Turkish and European factories.
Permitting & Standards Compliance
Preparing blueprints for authority approvals (civil defense, municipal codes, and accessibility compliance).
Market Demand & Regional Specifications
We coordinate localized engineering and procurement contracts satisfying regional specifications:
Saudi Arabia (KSA)
- Precision Shop Drawings & SBC-compliant BOQs: High demand from owners to verify material volumes and ensure strict SBC code compliance.
- Civil Defense Safety Blueprints: Drafting certified fire-fighting plans, emergency exits, and fire-rated material schedules for offices and shops.
- Value Engineering Studies: Sourcing high-quality local or import finish alternatives, reducing total costs by up to 30% without affecting aesthetics.
Qatar
- Turnkey FF&E Sourcing for Hospitality: Curating and procuring commercial grade furniture and custom lighting satisfying international standards.
- As-Built Drawings for Authority Clearances: Creating post-construction documentation to secure final municipal operation licenses.
- BIM Clash Detection: Resolving coordination spatial overlapping conflicts between HVAC ducts, electrical cable trays, and plumbing.
Turkey
- Seismic Retrofitting & Structural Assessments: Checking building structural safety and calculating custom framing anchors for interior finishes.
- Franchise Rollout Engineering Guidelines: Creating standardization technical manuals detailing dimensions, materials, and colors for chain branches.
- Export Sourcing for Finishes & Joinery: Fabricating Turkish marble and custom joinery and managing logistics to GCC countries.
Syria
- Structural Integrity Reviews for Restoration: Checking load-bearing conditions of old structures and issuing retrofitting plans.
- Material Substitution Studies: Direct engineering evaluations to replace high-cost imports with functional, locally available budget materials.
- QA/QC On-Site Supervision: Routine site monitoring on construction, plumbing, and tiling works to secure durability.
Execution Workflow & Timeline
1. Feasibility Study & Project Briefing
We analyze project requirements, review local zoning regulations/codes, and establish the target budget and risk registry.
2. MEP Drafting & BIM Modeling
We draft spatial layouts and MEP blueprints inside BIM (Revit) databases to resolve overlapping conflicts before site works.
3. Bill of Quantities & Material Specification
We compile highly detailed Bill of Quantities (BOQ) and technical specifications books to facilitate clean bidding and pricing.
4. Sourcing & FF&E Tedarik Yönetimi
We oversee execution to ensure compliance with engineering blueprints, coordinating FF&E logistics and quality checks.
