Many MEP related change Order costs up to $5,000

we catch the points before they hit the site

Our projects typically realize ~ 5% HVAC savings

roughly ~$25k on a $500k system - plus cleaner execution and better performance

Our Support reduce RFIs and speed up your project

saving you weeks on the schedules

Our Vision

Our Vision is to become the quality leader in the U.S. market by delivering building systems that are precisly engineered-based, flawlessy executed and built to last.

We believe that building systems define the true performance of a property. Our German Approach means thinking ahead, precisely implementation and taking full responsibility for quality and results.

We combine German precision in Implementation Planning & Design Assist Collaboration with American execution. From day one, our focus is on responsibility and reliablity.

We provide implementation-level HVAC planning & coordination - All BIM based

American Execution. German Precision. Exceptional Building Performance

That's not just our claim - it's our promise

So many people ask me, "Hey Peter, why are you doing this?"

I'm doing this because it frustrates me that most construction projects these days are too expensive, take too long and create so much pressure that you can't build anything and you have to meet the deadline. I know it can be done differently, I know you can meet deadlines if you approach it with the right strategy, the right partners and the right motivation. That's why I founded AGE Design & Build. Because I want to show that it can be done better, more effectively and more cheaply!

MEP Implementation Planning - technical

We help General Contractors and Developers identify system and constructability risk early – long before they turn into RFIs, field conflicts or change order. This is where we bring real MEP logic, engineering thinking and practical knowledge into the project.

What's included:

  • Logical review of airflow, equipment locations & system zoning
  • Constructability & installation feasibility checks
  • Early conflict analysis in ceiling spaces (HVAC vs. structure vs. MEP)
  • Access & serviceability review (maintenance paths, door clearances, etc.)
  • Routing strategy (high-level) for ducts/pipes in congested areas
  • Review of missing or unclear information in the permit set
  • Technical risk report (code gaps, inconsistencies, coordination risks)

Result/Deliverables:

  • Short technical summary report (PDF)
  • 1 Example Plan with annotated comments / redlines to the Engineer-of-Record design
  • Recommended next steps for GC and MEP trade

MEP Implementation Planning & Coordination - BIM based

We turn early design into a buildable, coordinated model. We integrate architectural, structural and MEP models to eliminate conflicts, reduce field rework and support seamless execution. BIM is not the product - constructability is.

What's included:

  • All from MEP Implementation Planning - technical
  • BIM model integration
  • 3D coordination of MEP
  • Clash detection & structured clash resolution
  • Ceiling-space coordination & height management
  • Detailed routing of ducts, pipes & equipment
  • Multi-trade interface checks (HVAC/ELEC/PLUM/FP)
  • Consolidated model updates (weekly or milestone-based)
  • Support for Submittals & Shop Drawings
  • Issue management via ACC/Revizto (optional)

Result/Deliverables:

  • Fully coordinated 3D model (HVAC or full MEP package)
  • Clash report + issue list (PDF) (if it's even still needed)
  • Routing & installation-ready layouts for trades with final coordination package for GC, HVAC and MEP subcontractors

Design Assist & Preconstruction Support - BIM based

We support GCs and Developers in the early design phases with practical MEP system guidance, helping the Engineer of Record and the Contractor make faster, clearer and more constructible decisions.

This service reduces uncertainty, eliminates redesign cycles and creates technical clarity before construction.

What's included:

  • All from MEP Implementation Planning & Coordination - BIM based
  • Review of system concepts, options & early equipment selections
  • Feasibility studies (space constraints, ceiling congestion, routing logic)
  • Constructability recommendations for Engineers & GCs
  • Technical design questions resolved early
  • Collaboration with the Engineer of Record (non-PE scope)
  • Early coordination with trades (MEP)
  • BIM workflow 
  • Implementation-level MEP
  • Planning and system integrator with German knowhow
  • Bridge the gap between planning permission and construction reality

Result/Deliverables:

  • Design Assist Reports with system insights & recommendations
  • Early coordination model (HVAC, ELEC, PLUM and FP)
  • Coordination workshops & meetings
  • Meeting notes & issue tracking
  • A ready-made package for execution
  • Optional ACC or Revizto project setup + coordination structure

Our German Expertise

What We bring to Your Project?

We offer our German-engineered based Knowhow for

  • Medical Office & Med. Buildings
  • Office & Mixed Use Spaces
  • Life Sciences and specialized Industrial projects

Excellence Before the Jobsite

Our goal is simple: do it right the first time - before it costs you money.

The disciplined approach ensures projects run on time, on budget and without surprises.

For Example, this weather protection grille is perfect sized, designed last for decades. 

This is German Precision - small differences that save big money, because it holds for decades

Our Role in the Building Process

We operate in the critical interface between design and construction – turning engineering intent into practical execution - not just BIM. Engineering design remains under the responsible charge of licensed professionals.

Collaboration is KEY

AGE Design & Build provides Implementation-level MEP Planning & Coordination. We are baked by real engineering logic, German technical thinking and U.S. constructability experience. We are a technical team with German roots and a clear focus: technical precision, long-term solutions and genuine partnerships - human to human with German Knowhow Specialists

Our background is built on more than 100 commercial HVAC projects in Germany. This experience is now applied in the U.S. market, where we provide our Design Assist for General Contractors and Commercial Developers.

As Engineers in Germany, we believe in more than short-term fixes. Reliability, accountability and earned trust are the foundation of every client relationship. Our work combines German engineering discipline with U.S. expertise, creating clarity and certainty in your project.

Today, we share this expertise with general contractors and commercial developers - pragmatic, solution-driven and always focused on reducing risk!
