“This project stretched the use of DfMA (Design for Manufacture & Assembly) to the maximum, which took a lot of engineering discussions and problem solving to achieve. With the project being local to our Manchester office we had many opportunities to visit site during the construction and see our virtual models develop into reality. The team at NG Bailey were a pleasure to work with and engaged with the engineering solutions put forwards by our team.”
Matt McGuire Director
“We used the services of BIMTech Engineering on the MECD project and their technical knowledge and DfMA experience contributed to a highly successful project delivery”.
