Frequently Asked Questions

We support the residential construction sector across design and design development, working drawings and documentation, 3D rendering and walkthroughs, truss and frame detailing, estimating, HVAC drafting, and project administration. Each can be engaged on its own or combined into a dedicated team, depending on what your business needs.

Both. We work with volume and production builders running standard designs across multiple projects, and with architecture practices working on residential design. The team and workflow are shaped around whichever side of that you’re on.

Our teams work within the drawing, documentation and quantity conventions used in your market, rather than applying another market’s terminology or standards to your project.

Yes. Additional capacity during a peak, without pulling your internal team off other work, is one of the most common ways clients engage us, and it scales back down once the peak eases.

A local hire is a fixed cost you carry regardless of workload. A transactional drafting service completes individual tasks with limited ongoing relationship. Realcognita builds capacity that flexes with your workload and stays trained in your standards, functioning as part of your team rather than a rotating external service.

Built Around the Way You Work

Whether you need support for a specific project, additional capability during periods of high demand or a dedicated team working as an extension of your business, Realcognita can tailor its support around your existing systems, standards and workflows.
