From brief to permit-ready in four project phase

Technical Blueprint

Our architects translate your vision into a technical roadmap, provide a Basis of Design (BoD), ensuring core spatial and regulatory compliance from day one.

Phased CD Development

We deliver CD sets at 30/60/100% intervals, giving you full visibility and control over the CD set’s evolution, allowing your team to verify interim documents.

Internal Quality Audit

We track every design change and use a strict review process. This keeps our drawing sets consistent, well-formatted, and error-free before we send them out.

Permit-Ready Document

We provide a 100% permit-ready CD set, fully reviewed by a U.S. architect and formatted to meet all local jurisdictional requirements for immediate submission.

THE PROBLEM

Most AEC Firms are one
project away from being overwhelmed

Overloading In-House Teams

Your licensed architects are buried in fixing drawings rather than advancing design

85% of Firms Report Staff Shortages

Thanks to the talent war, by the time you hire a new team member you've already missed the deadline

Inconsistent Document Quality

When speed is the priority, detailed quality checks often get skipped. This creates inconsistencies that are expensive and time-consuming to fix.

Coordination Breakdown

Late-stage coordination errors create field RFIs, cause delays, and multiply costly redesign cycles

Restaurant Renovation & Construction Documentation

Recently, uppteam engaged in a project with a restaurant in Orlando, Florida. The primary objective of this partnership was to support the complete renovation and redevelopment of the restaurant, which spans approximately 3,000 square feet.

Operating under the Architectural Offshore Production (AOP) service, uppteam handled the project from SD and DD through to construction and permit documentation.

Schematic to Permit-Ready Documentation for a Commercial Building

The primary scope of this project entailed the creation of existing and demising floor plans, along with a full progression from schematic design and design development through to CDs and a permit-ready set. The client needed the full package within 3 weeks.

The client approached uppteam to avail the Architectural Offshore Production (AOP) service. The task was to develop a complete documentation set for an approximately 8,285-square-foot commercial building in Florida.

I've recently partnered with uppteam for complete CD set production for a warehouse renovation project. I am extremely satisfied with the delivery, accuracy, and coordination of the team. I'd rate them a 10/10.

James Atkinson Architect

Working with uppteam on our recent project has been a great experience. The drawings were spot-on, and what impressed us most was how quickly and smoothly they handled every change we needed. It gave us the confidence that we were in good hands, and we’re excited to team up with them again on future projects.

    FAQs

    We can collaborate directly with your chosen structural, MEP, and civil engineers throughout the design process. Or we can stay included in coordination meetings and in other communications handled by your project manager. Our Design Captains schedule meetings, issue coordination documents, and ensure alignment among all disciplines at each phase, keeping your project manager informed.

    We use Autodesk Revit as our primary platform and deliver projects via Autodesk Construction Cloud for real-time collaboration. We can adapt to your Revit templates and design standards, and can also accommodate VectorWorks, ArchiCAD, or AutoCAD for an additional fee. All project models will remain accessible to your team during the design process.

    When client requirements shift during design, we update the Basis of Design (BOD) document for the next phase submission. Your Local Representative works with our Design Captains to ensure accurate updates. We provide weekly status updates and a documented scheduling approach for collaborative timeline adjustments when necessary.

    uppteam does not sign or seal construction documents. Our AOP model is tailored for A&E firms and Design-Build companies with in-house registered architects as the Architect of Record (AOR). We produce complete, code-verified CD sets for your AOR's final review and seal, allowing you to maintain design authority and professional responsibility while we manage production.

    Every project starts with a documented schedule aligned to your deadlines. Our Project Coordinator provides weekly status emails on progress, design issues, and upcoming milestones. The time-zone difference accelerates your timeline, allowing work to continue while your office is closed. Our Local Representatives are available during your business hours for urgent coordination needs.
