RFIs, change orders, and construction delays are often treated as inevitable parts of multifamily projects. In reality, many of these issues originate much earlier—during design.
In this episode, we explore how thoughtful MEP engineering and early coordination can significantly reduce RFIs, change orders, and schedule disruptions once construction begins. From incomplete system coordination and unclear design intent to late utility coordination and repeated unit mistakes, we break down the most common drivers of construction-phase problems.
We also discuss how experienced MEP teams approach multifamily design differently—focusing on early system strategy, repeatable solutions, and clear documentation that supports construction sequencing.
If you’re an architect, developer, contractor, or engineer working on multifamily projects, this conversation highlights why the smoothest construction phases usually start with better decisions in design.
Because in multifamily projects, less chaos in the field often begins with better coordination on the drawings.
