About
About MEPX
A Newcastle-based building-services consultancy focused on coordinated technical information.
Purpose
Mechanical, electrical and public-health systems share the same building, programme and commercial constraints. MEPX treats them as parts of one coordinated design.
The work is structured to give project teams usable information, clear decisions and defined responsibilities.
Design approach
How the work is structured
Start with the whole
Understand the building, brief, constraints and operating intent before selecting systems.
Make trade-offs visible
Frame technical choices in terms the wider project team can use.
Design for delivery
Keep space, coordination, installation and future operation present throughout the process.
How we work
Project stages
Five stages structure the design work, decisions and information required at each point.
Define
Set the brief, constraints and decision criteria before design begins.
Test
Test viable options against space, energy, cost and programme risk.
Coordinate
Resolve key interfaces across architecture, structure and contractor sequencing.
Communicate
Translate intent into clear documents, decisions and review points.
Support
Keep design intent visible from concept through delivery.
