Mechanical Design and Drafting

With over 35 years in mechanical design, conceptual design and drafting, we can handle most of your design and drafting needs.

Having spent many years welding and machining, I learned how to draw items with how to manufacture them in mind during the design and drafting process.

Starting on a drafting table learning the fundamentals of drafting and then migrating to AutoCAD, I have spent thousands of hours drawing all kinds of structures and assemblies.

Working hands on with an structural steel fabricators, I know the importance of correct drawings.

A big part of the Pre-Construction phase of a project is taking concepts to fully engineered and detailed drawings.

Having worked in project management and project controls for over 30 years, we can keep control of a project that we take on. We specialize in working part time on multiple projects to keep your costs down and productivity up. Using scheduling software and cost control techniques we can assure that the project will finish on time and on budget. Often a second set of eyes from a high level can shed light on a situation, by not being bogged down with details. We have experience in recovery of distressed, over budget and late projects.

If your project starts to fall behind, there are many ways to expedite the work while it is underway. Often an outside view of the situation can shed light on areas that cannot be seen from the trenches.

If change orders and documents are managed correctly; assembling a case if needed comes at a dramatically lower cost. After many years of preparing documentation, BDG Contractors knows what information will make a project run smoothly and what is needed to present a strong case for either side. Our high-quality documentation can change the outcome of a claim, give a favorable final decision or even avoid litigation altogether. Schedule impacts need to be identified within the change order.

If a project has become distressed, there is often still time to recover things before it gets to the critical stage. BDG Contractors can come in after things go south and turn the project around.

Money is the blood flow of any project and the lack of money will shut any project down. Efficient cash flow management is critical to keep money flowing and cost projections are just as important.
