MEP BIM Coordination Works Better When It Follows the Construction Sequence
Coordination is often treated as a discipline-by-discipline exercise. But that is not how a building gets installed.
The systems that control the most space and affect the most downstream work should be resolved early. Once risers, major mains, equipment zones, and congested pathways are established, smaller branch systems have clearer constraints to work within.
This approach can make coordination more practical by reducing late rerouting, protecting critical pathways, and giving trades a model that better reflects how work will progress in the field.
The point is not simply to close clashes faster. It is to coordinate with installation in mind.
