OUTSOURCING GRADING DESIGN AND MODELING

Grading Plan is an important part of nearly every civil engineering project and it take you a lot of time in modeling, balancing earthwork, showing labels, creating sheets.

If you are thinking about outsourcing your upcoming projects. Grading Plan service is a part you should consider outsourcing. That saves you a lot of time and effort.

Grading Plan can be defined as the reshaping of the land surface between points in the ground. Basically, the grading plan shows your property, existing grades, its dimensions, the proposed location of your new house, and how the ground around your house will slope.  The main purpose of this plan is to ensure that the construction of the new building, including the driveway, retaining wall etc., will be built in such a manner as to allow for proper surface drainage, to prevent any negative impacts on adjoining lands and reduce costs as much as possible for the owner.

In all cases, grading plans must ensure positive drainage and conform to the following standards, meeting design requirements (Minimum, Maximum slopes), coordinating with all private and public utility, providing drainage swales, berms.

We have done a lot of Grading Plan projects using Civil 3D and AutoCAD to implement, surface analysis, grading modeling, create cross-sections, create surfaces objects, earthwork calculation, contour labels. We regularly use data shortcut to manage data and show on plan sheet. This way helps us work effectively and promote teamwork.

Moreover, we apply Civil 3D to create proposed Storm Drainage network referenced proposed surface then connect to existing storm drainage network.

Plan sheets setup: As soon as Grading And Storm Drainage is modeled. We need to show them on plan with full information from contours, structures, pipes, earthwork, labels and notes.

One more thing is we can help you create specific details in CAD files to show on sheet of details. It can be created from PDF, paper scan, images, or hand sketch. That way you can use them next time you need it and build a template bank.

WHAT SHOULD YOU LOOK FOR IN AN ENGINEERING OUTSOURCING PARTNER?

Outsourcing is the activity or process of assigning the task to another company or person, letting you focus on your core responsibilities. But you need to know what you should look for in an engineering outsourcing partner so that you can outsource your upcoming project to a suitable partner.

IDENTIFYING YOUR PRECISE NEED:

Before you start to outsource your upcoming project, write a clear scope of work – what is it that your business needs and what could be the best possible solution to achieve your desired outcomes.

ASKING FOR SAMPLE WORKS:

You definitely need to look up what kind of projects the company has completed in the past. This will give you an overview of what their main focus has been and if they have done similar projects to the one you are about to outsource to them.

You should ask for references or work samples of tasks performed by the outsourcing company earlier. This can help you see whether you are dealing with the right outsourcing partner. While doing so, ask them for more details, if they are able to help you understand how they achieved the result they show on the work sample, you have made the right decision.

PERFORMING EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION:

Communication between your company and the outsourcing partner is essential in ensuring that the two parties can work collaboratively. Good communication guarantees that results are delivered as expected, issues are resolved efficiently, and problems are avoided or limited.

DELIVERING A QUICK TURNAROUND TIME:

A business can be more successful, better prepared for market challenges and have a streamlined cash flow. Actually, outsourcing your business to a country with a different time zone like Vietnam means we will do your work when you get out of your office then get the work done on the next day. That helps you work on more projects and complete them much faster than normal.

OFFERING A REASONABLE QUOTATION:

Price is a key factor of outsourcing to reduce project expenses. In civil engineering field, there are many outsourcing providers offering similar services so before choosing a partner for your civil engineering firm, make sure you obtain quotations from several companies and compare their offers.

Should you have any questions or queries about outsourcing works. Let us know via contact@aidedo.com.

HOW DOES YOUR TEAM CHECK THE QUALITY OF WORK?

We constantly strive to optimize our level of quality and increase productivity so that our clients can achieve their business goals in a shorter time, while reducing their operational cost.

To be more specific, we would like to show you how we check the output quality of work.

We will begin the outsourcing process with our carefully designed workflow, which ensures that we deliver quality services in time and at a reasonable cost. The workflow includes four steps: Project Planning, Process Definition, Execution and Design Verification.

Step 1: In the project planning stage, we will discuss with client to gather information and determine the scope of the project, set the milestone dates, set up the engineering team.

Step 2: The process definition stage begins with an in-depth analysis of the customer's requirements. The project is then allocated to the team, headed by an experienced project manager who signs off the input documents and then sets the team's milestones.

Step 3: The execution stage includes regular quality checks, peer reviews, and external/ internal milestone reviews. Our team will regularly communicate with customer and ask for extra inputs. The stage will end with an internal sign-off on the work.

Step 4: The last stage is called the design verification stage, where the quality of work will be checked by an independent reviewer, and corrections (if any) will be made. The project will again go through a final internal sign-off and then be sent to the customer for review and feedback.

Especially, we do the internal quality control checklist which built from the client’s specific requirements, feedbacks, markups, common issues and this checklist will be updated whenever your project's requirement changes.

Quality is the very essence of our services.
