Frequently asked questions

What software is standard?

Revit MEP and Navisworks are mandatory. Trade-specific add-ons (CAD-Duct, Victaulic Tools for Revit, eVolve) are strong pluses.

Remote options?

VDC is one of the most remote-friendly disciplines in mechanical construction. Many Denver clients support fully remote BIM coordinators and modelers.

Do I need MEP background?

Strongly preferred. We focus on candidates with commercial mechanical, plumbing, or piping BIM experience — not general architectural Revit.

How much does Boulder / Broomfield life science pull from the Denver labor pool?

Significantly. Boulder County life-science and aerospace buildouts increasingly recruit senior PMs and detailers who commute from Denver metro. Contractors offer 4-day schedules or hybrid VDC to compete.
