CD Production Support
Permit-Ready, Coordinated, and AIA-Standard Drawing Sets
Producing construction documents requires precision, coordination, and deep familiarity with US building codes, sheet standards, and jurisdictional requirements. Uppteam works as an extension of your production team, delivering complete, well-organized CD
packages that reduce rework, streamline permitting, and help your architects focus on design and client management.
Our team follows US drafting conventions, AIA sheet standards, and discipline-specific coordination procedures under your direction to ensure every drawing and detail is accurate, buildable, and aligned with your workflow.
What We Deliver:
Construction-ready drawings built on your standards and templates.
Ensuring cross-discipline coordination and drawing precision through architectural BIM models.
Detailing that's aligned with typical US construction practices.
Accurate sheet organization, annotation, and QA checks.
Regular progress updates in line with your project cadence.
Schematic
Design Phase
Schematic design sets the spatial and technical framework for all downstream decisions. Uppteam converts early design intent into clear, review-ready diagrams, layouts, and massing studies. Experience ideal stakeholder alignment, early feasibility validation, and a hassle-free transition into Design Development.
What We Produce during the SD Phase:
Massing studies and simplified BIM geometry.
Preliminary zoning and site-plan feasibility checks (FAR, setbacks, height limits).
Program summaries and area takeoff validation.
Early floor plans, conceptual core layouts, and circulation diagrams.
Conceptual elevations and façade iterations.
Preliminary accessibility feasibility checks (key ADA concepts, approach zones, and planning clearances).
Initial life safety considerations (egress intent, occupancy classifications, initial travel-distance assessments).
Preliminary coordination placeholders for structural grids and MEP zones.
Our Schematic Design Approach:
Early constructability review
Jurisdiction-specific code research
Sketch-to-BIM translation
Iteration-friendly modeling
Design
Development Phase
Uppteam’s advanced approach to Design Development troubleshoots coordination gaps early by aligning architectural intent with structural and MEP systems. We stabilize scope, reduce rework, and set a coordination-ready foundation that fast-tracks construction documentation and lowers downstream revisions. What we deliver in design development establishes design intent and the technical base for efficient CD production.
Our DD Phase Deliverables include:
LOD 300 architectural BIM models with clean model organization.
Refinement of floor plans with fully developed partitions, openings, and assemblies.
Building envelope and wall-section development.
Vertical circulation detailing (stairs, elevators, shafts).
Preliminary door and window schedules with types, sizes, ratings, and performance intent.
RCPs signifying coordination intent for lighting layouts, mechanical zones, and ceiling systems.
Interior finish plans and draft finish schedules for design and cost validation.
Structural grid locking, clearances, and interface detailing.
MEP integration for chases, equipment rooms, and service zones.
Interior finish plans and draft finish schedules for design and cost validation.
We coordinate continuously with your team’s structural and MEP consultants to reduce conflicts early and minimize revision cycles in CDs.

Document Phase
We produce thoroughly coordinated, permit-ready CD sets emphasizing clarity, construction feasibility, and code conformity. Our methodical detailing and quality control guarantee limited RFIs and change orders, protecting your intended schedule and budget.
What We Deliver in the CD Phase:
Comprehensive floor plans with dimensions, annotations, and references.
Enlarged plans for kitchens, bathrooms, core areas, and high-detail zones.
Complete exterior and interior elevations.
Wall sections and building sections with complete assembly detailing.
Coordinated RCPs with lighting, diffusers, sensors, and ceiling systems.
2D and 3D construction details for façade interfaces, waterproofing, insulation, roofing, stairs, and interior assemblies.
Accessibility detailing per ADA 2010 Standards.
Life Safety sheets (occupancy, egress, fire-resistance ratings, travel distances).
Coordinated architectural information aligned with structural and MEP drawings.
Permit-ready sheets upholding applicable AHJ formatting and submission criteria.
All deliverables are produced under the authority of U.S.-licensed architects. We don’t seal drawings or assume professional liability. Design authority, professional responsibility, and final issuance remain with your firm.
Our U.S.-Standard CD Workflow
A structured, six-step production approach formulated to reduce rework, coordination gaps, and delivery risk.
Kickoff + Standards Alignment
Review of and alignment with your template, title blocks, sheet naming, annotation conventions, reference files, and jurisdictional protocols.
Drafting & Coordination Cycles
Development of plans, sections, elevations, schedules, details, and coordination with structural and MEP drawings.
Model Structuring + Sheet Setup
Organization of the BIM models, preparation of sheet indexes, view templates, and drafting standards.
Redline Integration
Unification of redlines with version tracking, comments, revision clouds, and reissued sheets.
Multi-Step QA/QC Review
Three-step review: Technical review by experienced architectural designers -> Cross-examination of coordination with linked models -> Annotation, dimension, and graphical consistency check.
Final Issue + Revision Management
Issuance of bid sets, permit sets, and revision packages according to client standards.
Bid, Permit, and IFC Documentation
Every CD package serves a different purpose. Uppteam structures, coordinates, and issues CDs with strategic precision for prompt approvals, accurate pricing, and smooth construction work. No rework, no scope confusion.
Bid Set (IFB)
Coordinated drawings issued for contractor pricing and procurement.
Well-defined scope, quantities, and assemblies for effective bids.
Fewer bidder RFIs through orderly annotations and schedules.
Optimized for cost transparency and competitive, apples-to-apples pricing.
Permit Set
Regulatory-compliant drawings compatible with AHJ specifications.
Life safety, accessibility, zoning, and code compliance clearly documented.
Organized, review-ready sets designed to reduce permit comments.
Structured for expedited approvals and minimal resubmittals.
IFC Set
Thoroughly coordinated, construction-ready documents.
Finalized details, dimensions, and system interfaces.
Confirmed scope to minimize change orders and field conflicts.
Validated reference for contractors, subcontractors, and site crew.
Uppteam delivers a single coordinated package of construction documents, smartly prepared for permitting, bidding, and construction. This precision curtails delays, avoids conflicts, and helps projects progress with confidence and cost control.

FAQ’s
Construction document management is vital for managing, storing, and sharing critical documents in a construction project, from plans to agreements. The process ensures that all stakeholders are in alignment.
BIM is critical in offering a digital representation of a project’s functional and physical qualities. Integrating 3D models with project data improves document management, coordination, accuracy, and visualization throughout the construction lifecycle.
Yes, Uppteam can help with your construction documentation. Our designers can assist you with drafting and organizing documents like drawings, specifications, schedules, and contracts.
We work with cloud-based document management systems that provide updates and real-time collaboration. To facilitate smooth project continuity, team members may monitor changes, view documents from any location, and ensure everyone uses the most recent versions.
Architectural drawings, structural plans, MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) layouts, specifications, permits, and compliance paperwork are just a few of our many construction documents. We aim to ensure that all documentation complies with regulatory standards and advances the project.
