Accelerated cabinet shop drawings development by 20-30% using 2020 Design

The client, a manufacturer of standard and custom kitchen and bathroom cabinets, received 2D architectural drawings from their customers. These drawings offered limited visibility and needed to be converted into 3D models with basic rendering to communicate the design intent.

• The client shared initial architectural drawings with the engineers at Hitech CADD Services for preliminary understanding.
• The team underwent training to learn and interpret the drawings according to NKBA standards, using reference documents and handbooks.
• Through close collaboration and interaction with the client, the project team created notes and established a process for developing standard models of bathroom and kitchen cabinets.
• The team utilized an extensive library in 2020 Design for standard products, employing drag-and-drop methods to expedite the design development.
• Models for kitchen and bathroom vanities, hinges, locks, handles, accessories, countertops, etc., were accurately calculated.
• Production-ready models were created, adhering to FHA rules and guidelines and NKBA standards.

After a thorough self-QC and peer QC, the final cabinet models and kitchen layouts were shared with the client.
