MEP & systems integration

MEP Works & Systems Integration for Buildings and Fit-Outs

Electrical, mechanical, plumbing, HVAC and low-current systems designed with the architecture and interiors, then installed, tested and handed over inside one accountable contract.

Visualisation

MEP works decide how a building performs long after the finishes stop being new: whether rooms cool evenly, whether power holds under load, whether a fire is detected in time. At NoVi, MEP and systems integration is one of six core capabilities, coordinated with the architecture from the first layout rather than added afterwards.

The clearest proof is the cold storage facility rehabilitation in Sadat City: 13,000 m² and 60 cold rooms, where we are the main renovation contractor for plumbing, electrical, fire alarm and firefighting, refrigeration and roof insulation. MEP integration is also in our scope on Lina Farm workers accommodation in Minya and The Marquee in Taj City, New Cairo.

01MEP & Systems

HVAC, electrical, plumbing and fire systems in one scope

  1. HVAC and ventilation

    Cooling loads room by room; split, ducted, VRF or chilled-water options; fresh air and extract routed with the ceiling design.

  2. Electrical power

    Load schedules, distribution boards, cable sizing, earthing, and sockets and switches drawn against the furniture plan.

  3. Plumbing and drainage

    Hot and cold water, pumps and heaters, drainage falls and venting, coordinated with waterproofing in every wet area.

  4. Fire alarm and firefighting

    Detection, alarm, sprinklers and extinguishers, with escape routes and signage designed to the applicable code.

  5. Light current systems

    Data and Wi-Fi, CCTV, intercom and access control, audio, and the containment that lets a smart home follow later.

  6. Refrigeration and specialist systems

    Cold rooms, cold-room doors and insulated envelopes for industrial and food facilities, integrated with power and fire systems.

Why MEP coordination saves money on site

Most budget overruns in a finished interior trace back to services: a duct that will not fit the ceiling void, a drain without enough fall, a board sized for yesterday's load. We draw combined services layouts over the architectural and interior design plans, so ducts, pipes and cable trays are resolved before a single wall is closed.

03MEP & Systems

MEP contractor for homes, fit-outs and industrial sites

  • Villas and compounds — cooling zoned by use, generous power and drainage for kitchens and pools, and light current planned for security.
  • Offices and clinics — power and data density, quiet ductwork, and dedicated circuits and drainage for treatment rooms.
  • Restaurants and cafés — kitchen extract, make-up air and fire suppression; our 160 m² restaurant and coffee shop in Sheikh Zayed included electro-mechanical and light-current works.
  • Industrial and cold storage — heavy electrical loads, refrigeration, firefighting and loading areas, as at Sadat City.

04MEP & Systems

From load calculations to commissioning

  1. Survey and base-building data

    Available electrical capacity, water and drainage points, the existing fire system and what the landlord or developer allows to change.

  2. Loads and system design

    Cooling and electrical loads calculated, equipment selected and layouts drawn over the interior plan.

  3. Combined drawings and BOQ

    Clashes resolved in shop drawings, and every MEP item listed with quantities in the BOQ rather than hidden in a lump sum.

  4. Installation and inspection

    Rough-in inspected before it is covered, under our ISO 9001 QA/QC and site safety procedures.

  5. Testing and handover

    Pressure tests and commissioning, then as-built drawings, test records and equipment documents at handover.

MEP works in Egypt and Saudi Arabia

In Egypt, the limits are usually the unit's supplied capacity, compound rules on condenser positions and façade openings, and the drainage the developer provided, whether in New Cairo, Sheikh Zayed or the New Administrative Capital. See fit-out in Egypt.

In Saudi Arabia, systems follow Saudi Building Code requirements, and fire and evacuation design is prepared for Civil Defense review with the licensed office that submits it. See fit-out in Riyadh, or book a site survey.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers to what clients ask us before a site survey. Not covered here? Ask the team directly.

Ask the team

What do MEP works include?

Air conditioning and ventilation, electrical power and lighting circuits, water supply and drainage, fire alarm and firefighting, and light-current systems such as data, CCTV, intercom and access control. In industrial projects it can also cover refrigeration and cold rooms.

Do you install MEP or only design it?

Both. We install, test and commission MEP inside our fit-out, renovation and design and build contracts. You can also hire us for MEP design only and receive loads, layouts and quantities your own contractor can price.

Do you design central air conditioning for villas?

Yes. We calculate each room's load, compare ducted, VRF and central options on layout and running cost, and place diffusers and outdoor units with the ceiling and façade design.

Who handles fire system approvals?

We design the fire alarm and firefighting layouts to the applicable code and prepare the approval package. Where the authority requires a licensed office to stamp and submit it, we coordinate the submission with that office.

Can you upgrade MEP in an existing building?

Yes. We check incoming capacity and the condition of boards, piping and AC, replace what has aged, add missing light current, and test everything before new finishes cover it. See renovation.

Do you take on industrial MEP projects?

Yes. Our largest MEP-led scope is the 13,000 m² cold storage rehabilitation in Sadat City, covering electrical, plumbing, fire systems, refrigeration and 60 cold rooms. See industrial facilities.
