Architectural Documentation

NCC, BCA and Australian Standard codes compliant architectural documentation services in Melbourne — from design intent to construction-ready CD sets.

OVERVIEW

Arqissync delivers NCC, BCA and Australian Standard codes compliant architectural documentation services in Melbourne, supporting Australian architecture practices through high-quality BIM documentation, Revit construction drawing production, and scalable technical delivery — designed to integrate seamlessly into existing studio workflows. Integrated in approach, consistent in quality, and built to scale alongside the practices we serve.

We were established to address a growing challenge faced by Australian architecture practices: increasing documentation complexity, fluctuating project pipelines, and the difficulty of maintaining scalable BIM production capacity without long-term operational overhead. As a reliable offshore BIM delivery partner in Chennai, Arqissync bridges that gap — combining Australian documentation understanding with scalable BIM capability, minimising site RFIs (Requests for Information) through precise drafting.

COLLABORATION STREAMS TO SUIT DIFFERENT STUDIO NEEDS

TYPICAL SUPPORT AREAS

What we support — construction documentation and Revit production.

Construction Documentation Sets (CD Sets)

Comprehensive Revit-based documentation support from design development through to construction documentation, including floor plans drawings, elevation drawings, section drawings, internal elevations, concrete set out plans, roof details, schedules, and builder-ready Construction Documentation Sets aligned to Australian documentation standards.

Revit Production & Sheet Compilation

Scalable BIM production support for architectural practices requiring flexible documentation capacity. Our teams operate within structured Revit workflows to develop coordinated models, Revit sheet compilation, line weight and legend optimization, annotations, and project deliverables efficiently and consistently.

BIM Coordination

Multi-disciplinary coordination support across architectural, structural, hydraulic, mechanical, and electrical consultant models. We assist in identifying coordination issues, model inconsistencies, and constructability challenges before they reach site.

Technical Detailing

Production of technically resolved construction detail drawings and shop drawings — including wall sections, waterproofing details, façade details, curtain wall details, door threshold details, window head details, door jamb details, stair geometry, wet-area detailing, and joinery logic and wall types — developed to support buildability and documentation clarity.

Tender & Working Drawings

Preparation and management of tender and working drawings, permitting documentation, and structured drawing packages across multiple project phases, ensuring consistency in documentation standards, sheet coordination, title block systems, view organisation, annotation protocols, and issue management.

Documentation QA

Internal quality assurance workflows designed to support documentation accuracy, consistency, and coordination. Includes peer review processes, BIM lead oversight, drawing audits, model checking, and package verification prior to issue — minimising site RFIs through precise drafting.

OUR COLLABORATION STREAMS

Three ways to work with us.

01

Architectural Documentation

Fully Outsourced Production — Asynchronous Project Execution

Full Chennai Production. Best for autonomous, milestone-driven package delivery. Arqis manages the entire technical stack independently. From $4,000-$4,500 AUD / month per dedicated BIM resource.

BOUTIQUE TO MID-SIZED STUDIOS (5-20 STAFF). PHASE FOCUS: SD / DD THROUGH TO 100% CD.

02

Embedded BIM Team

Client-Hosted Environment — Secure Integration into Your Existing BIM Ecosystem

Your servers, BIM licenses, and workstations remain within Australia. Arqis connects via MFA-authenticated encrypted VPN and remote desktop. No data ever leaves your physical perimeter. From $3,500-$4,000 AUD / month per dedicated BIM resource.

ESTABLISHED MID-SIZED TO LARGE PRACTICES (20-80+ STAFF). IDEAL FOR SECURITY-CONSCIOUS STUDIOS AND GOVERNMENT PROJECTS.

03

Integrated BIM Partner

Real-Time Concurrent Modeling — Client Managed Cloud Collaboration

Arqis provides Revit subscriptions; your team provisions BIM Collaborate Pro tokens. Melbourne architects and Chennai team work concurrently inside the same central model inside your ACC hub. From $5,500-$6,500 AUD / month per dedicated BIM resource.

Large Tier-1 and Corporate Practices (80+ staff). Complex mixed-use, large educational precincts, health facilities.

ONBOARDING PROCESS

FAQ

Will the documentation look like our studio's work?

Yes. We work within your standards, workflows and delivery requirements, so issued drawings are consistent with your practice — from line weight and legend optimization to joinery logic and wall types.

Do you work to NCC, BCA and RESCODE requirements?

Our foundation is in Australian construction. All documentation — including door threshold details, window head details, door jamb details, waterproofing details, curtain wall details and façade details — is NCC, BCA and RESCODE compliant and annotated with buildability in mind.

Can you join at design development stage?

Yes. We engage from schematic documentation and design development through to construction issue, scaling production capacity to your programme.

How does real-time studio alignment work?

Arqissync intentionally aligns its Chennai workday to overlap with Melbourne and Australian studio hours for up to 3.5-5 hours daily, enabling real-time coordination, mark-up discussions, and rapid resolution of technical queries.
