Data Center Design Consulting

Align your design.
Before it misaligns your project.

In data center documentation, the same asset information lives across BIM models, SLDs, cable and panel schedules — and they misaligned for certain procent due to design complexity and changies. ADFR extracts, cross-references, and aligns them into one consistent, verified information set.

The Problem

There is no single source of truth
in construction.

80%

of files in a typical CDE are issued as PDFs — the same asset appearing differently in BIM, SLDs, and cable schedules.

A 10 MW data center has ~4,500 assets — each one described across BIM, SLDs, and cable schedules. That's 4,500 opportunities for naming mismatches, missing entries, and coordination gaps.

Every unresolved inconsistency between files increases risk — caught late on site, they become RFIs, delays, and rework.

Define what's needed.
Then verify it's there.

We offer: EIR development — defining exactly what information your project requires — and alignment reporting, where we extract asset data from SLDs, cable schedules, and BIM models and verify they all tell the same story.

EIR Development

We define exactly what information your project needs, how it should be structured, and who is responsible for delivering it — so there is no ambiguity about what "correct" looks like before work begins.

~70–80% baseline coverage

BIM / SLD / Schedule Alignment Report

SLDs, cable schedules, and BIM models all describe the same physical assets — but they live in different tools, authored by different teams, and updated at different times. We extract the data from each, cross-reference it automatically, and deliver a clear report showing exactly where the information diverges and why it matters.

EIR deviation flags Medium
From brief to clarity — in four steps

We start where the project is, formalise what already exists informally, then verify it holds.

01

Project Investigation

We audit what's actually in the CDE — which asset codes exist, which BIM parameters are populated, and how the SLDs and schedules have been structured so far.

02

EIR Based on Project Reality

We build the EIR from the ground up — grounded in what the project is already doing. We formalise the informal rules, naming conventions, and information patterns that exist in practice, not just on paper.

03

EIR Compliance Check

We verify whether the BIM model and SLDs actually meet the EIR we've defined — including the rules that were never written down but always expected. Deviations get flagged before they compound.

04

Alignment Report

We cross-reference BIM, SLDs, and cable schedules — extracting asset data from each and checking for consistency. The result is a clear report of what aligns, what doesn't, and what needs to be resolved.

Why order an
Alignment Report?

Every party on a project has a different reason to want clean, aligned information — but they all benefit from the same report.

Client

Verify the design quality you're paying for

Catch misalignments between BIM, SLDs, and schedules before construction starts — when fixes are cheap. Reduce the risk of discovering errors on site that blow up your budget and timeline.

Lower construction risk & cost overruns
Designer

Deliver work without hidden mistakes

Get an independent cross-check across all your deliverables before they're issued. Hand over a coordinated, defensible information set — and protect your reputation in the process.

Coordinated deliverables, every issue
General Contractor

Price what's actually in the design

During tender, surface the inconsistencies between BIM, SLDs, and schedules — so you can flag them to the client and budget realistically for the corrections that will be needed.

Honest tender pricing, no surprises
