Project Overview

This project involved preparing detailed estimation, costing, and HVAC equipment selection for a fifteen-story mixed-use building in philadelphia. The scope included selecting VRV systems, FCUs, unit heaters, and cabinet heaters using multiple manufacturer platforms. All outputs were validated for accuracy, compliance, and pricing consistency before final delivery.

Client Requirement

The client required a complete HVAC equipment selection and cost estimation package for VRV systems, FCUs, cabinet unit heaters, and unit heaters. Their expectations included:

  • Equipment sizing and selection using manufacturer software
  • Accurate estimation and pricing based on project specifications
  • A structured Excel sheet with itemized costs
  • Software-generated reports for verification and documentation
  • Compliance with manufacturer standards and system requirements

The goal was to ensure correct system selection and precise pricing to support budgeting and procurement.

Our Approach

We began by reviewing all project specifications to understand load demands, zoning needs, and equipment requirements. Using Daikin Web Express, Daikin City, Enviro-Tec, and Mastek Sales Assistance, we performed system selection for VRV units, FCUs, and various heating equipment.

Each selection was validated for performance, compatibility, and compliance with manufacturer guidelines. We then prepared a detailed Excel-based costing sheet showing itemized pricing and system breakdowns. All manufacturer outputs were included to provide transparency and verification for the client.

The complete estimation and selection package was delivered with clarity, accuracy, and readiness for procurement review.

Project Outcome

  • Delivered accurate HVAC equipment selection using manufacturer-approved tools
  • Prepared structured Excel costing for all units and components
  • Ensured selections aligned with project specifications and design requirements
  • Provided software-generated documentation for full transparency
  • Supported client decision-making with reliable pricing and system data
