MEP Decisions Impact Costs

In multifamily projects, construction costs are often locked in long before a project goes out to bid — and most teams don’t realize it until it’s too late.In this episode of Real Time Revolution, we break down how early MEP decisions around electrical service size, system selection, value engineering, and layout coordination can quietly determine whether a project runs smoothly or spirals into RFIs, change orders, and budget overruns. Through real project stories, we explain why small assumptions become massive problems in multifamily buildings — and how early MEP involvement helps teams avoid them.If you’ve ever been told to “make it work,” this episode explains why that mindset costs more than it saves.
