Automated BIM Schedules for Quantity Takeoffs, Material Estimation & Project Coordination
At Outsource Drafting we offer professional Revit Scheduling Services to help architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) teams streamline documentation, improve coordination, and enhance planning accuracy. Our expert team specializes in quantity estimation and scheduling in Revit, creating data-driven, fully integrated BIM schedules directly from your models—minimizing manual work and ensuring consistency across project stages. We deliver precise, customizable schedules for doors, windows, fixtures, equipment, MEP components, finish materials, surface treatments, quantity takeoffs, cost estimation, room and space data sheets, as well as system-specific schedules including HVAC, electrical, and plumbing systems. These schedules are tailored to match your project standards and are automatically updated as the model evolves—ensuring real-time accuracy and seamless integration into your construction workflows.
Our Revit scheduling services connect BIM models with project timelines to improve planning, coordination, and delivery. By linking design and construction activities, we help teams reduce delays, save costs, and improve project outcomes.
Our Revit Scheduling Services help architects, engineers, and construction professionals extract meaningful, real-time data from BIM models to support quantity takeoffs, construction planning, and resource management. Whether you're scheduling architectural components, MEP systems, or structural elements, we deliver fully automated, parametric schedules aligned with your standards and project goals.
We generate accurate schedules for doors, windows, finishes, fixtures, structural components, and MEP elements—directly from your Revit model. Each schedule is linked to model parameters and updates automatically with design changes, ensuring real-time accuracy across all project phases.
We help plan and track critical construction resources such as labor, equipment, and materials. By creating structured Revit schedules tailored to your resource workflows, we improve visibility and efficiency throughout procurement, staging, and execution.
Our team supports 4D BIM workflows by integrating construction timelines with model elements. We map construction phases to model geometry, enabling visual sequencing and timeline analysis that helps prevent delays and improve site coordination.
From architecture to MEP, we build discipline-specific schedules that align with your Revit standards, shared parameters, and BIM Execution Plan (BEP). This ensures clarity, consistency, and coordination across project teams—minimizing rework and manual data entry.
We integrate Revit schedule views into construction document sheets, ready for submission or stakeholder communication. Schedules are formatted to match your title block templates, standards, and documentation deliverables—streamlining quantity takeoffs and reporting.
Our Revit schedules are compatible with Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC), BIM 360, and other cost estimation platforms. We offer custom schedule templates and formatting based on your project phase, reporting requirements, and final deliverable goals.

The Revit scheduling support we received was nothing short of exceptional. From room finish schedules to MEP equipment lists, everything was perfectly structured, accurate, and dynamically linked to the model. It saved us countless hours and helped us meet tight submission deadlines without errors. Their ability to customize schedules exactly to our standards made a huge difference." — Emily Torres, BIM Manager, NextPhase Construction Group

Our Revit Scheduling Services are designed for architects, engineers, and construction professionals who need precise, real-time schedules generated directly from BIM models. Whether you're managing a new build or retrofitting an existing structure, we create clean, structured Revit schedules that enhance project planning, cost estimation, and cross-disciplinary coordination—including MEP modeling with construction scheduling to align building systems with project timelines.
Using your Revit models, templates, and parameter standards, we extract and configure schedules for key building elements such as doors, windows, finishes, MEP systems, equipment, and room data. Our team ensures all schedules follow your naming conventions, formatting preferences, and BIM Execution Plan (BEP) requirements to support downstream documentation, procurement, and analysis.
Each schedule is automated and dynamically linked to the Revit model—meaning it stays updated with every design revision. We implement quality checks and data validations at every step to ensure consistency, accuracy, and compliance with industry and client standards.
The result is a well-organized, highly usable schedule set that simplifies decision-making, reduces manual rework, and supports 4D and 5D BIM integration for smarter project delivery.
What are Revit Scheduling Services?
Revit Scheduling Services involve the creation of automated, data-rich schedules directly from BIM models. These schedules track elements like quantities, materials, equipment, and room data—helping project teams streamline documentation, planning, and coordination.
What types of schedules can you create in Revit?
We create a wide range of Revit schedules, including door schedules, window schedules, equipment lists, finish schedules, room data sheets, quantity takeoff schedules, and system-specific (HVAC, electrical, plumbing) schedules.
