M/ s. Stantec HVAC consultants is Founded by Mr. Tejas Shah i, who is an experienced Mechanical Engineer with PDRA. Mr. Shah has acquired extensive experience in India. He is associated with Air Conditioning & Refrigeration field for over 24 years.

Perform the engineering services through own ( in-house) resources.

Omit the consulting engineering services ( with no in-house capability) and approach the contracting/ supplier industry directly for turnkey proposals, which includes design, supply, installation and commissioning.

The second option ( direct industry approach) may look economical on the face of it, but poses several disadvantages that have frequently resulted in far higher cost than the additional cost for a consulting engineering service. These disadvantages include typically:

Being commercially independent from any contractor or supplier, the consulting engineer is in an ideal position to evaluate alternative system concepts during the design stages of a project. These investigations may save the client multiples of the consultant' s cost in capital and running cost of plant.

The contractor' s design cost is built into the tender prices and would be the same or more than the design fees of a consultant. The contractor will also build into the tender price the cost of design liability insurance to cover design mistakes or poor design. Because these costs are normally hidden, the contracting organisation has no way of knowing what the design cost is. On the other hand, a consulting engineer' s design fees are clearly stipulated and agreed and can be compared to internationally accepted norms.

When only one contractor/ supplier is approached, there is usually no way of evaluating the competitiveness of his price, unless the scope is standardized, or can be compared to similar scope of works recently procured. Consulting engineers normally are able to negotiate a competitive price from a single contractor/ supplier by using schedules of quantities and applying known industry rates.

When more than one contractor/ supplier is approached it is frequently very difficult to compare the technical quality and scope of tender offers and the lowest price may well be based on inferior scope and quality compared to other tender offers. Also, without in-house capability the contracting organisation will find it difficult to evaluate the quality of works/ equipment offered. Consulting engineers provide technical specifications and all tenders are based on the same scope and quality of works.

Some contractors/ suppliers offer only part of the scope ( with resultant reduced price) and then offer the remaining scope during the contract at a high rate or price.
Consulting engineers represent the contracting organisation ( client) during the construction stage of a project and verify on the client' s behalf whether the installation complies with specified requirements.
