Electrical drawing & as-built

Detailed and accurate drawings by SDS allow electricians to price more accurately and competitively. And facilities managers can reduce maintenance costs and keep sites safer.

We specialise in design and drawing on behalf of industrial electricians, electrical companies, and electrical and automation engineers. With us as your outsourced drawing studio, you can focus on doing the installations while we focus on high-quality design and optimisation of electrical infrastructure and document your installations with electrical as-builts.

Our design drawings are created by experienced industrial electricians. They are clear and detailed, so your team and clients know exactly what needs to be installed or repaired on-site and where it is located. We create accurate records to guide future maintenance and upgrades, and for building insurance records. Our drawing team looks after design and compliance, so you can price, install and get code signoff faster.

Why choose SDS?

Accurate & comprehensive plans

As-built plans need to be relied on for decades. We make sure you have a solid set of plans to support facility management and keep maintenance costs down. We’ll work with your installers to make sure every critical detail is recorded.

Accurate job pricing

When drawings are clear and easy to understand, they give you more certainty and confidence in pricing. We take the guesswork out of the scope of work by providing all the details you need to put in a solid price that you know your team can deliver on.

No job too big or too small

Large facilities rely on a wide range of buildings and plant, and every asset needs to be documented. Our as-built drawing service looks after small and large jobs, so your whole site can be well managed, whatever its scale of operation.

Quality documents for speed & accuracy

We are a partner who knows modern production environments, technology, compliance and standards. With quality drawings by SDS, you gain more speed and accuracy on-site.
