Planning Energy and Sustainability
At planning stage developers and Architects require a strategy for how the building will be heated, ventilated and cooled. BSE 3D’s in house energy assessors and engineers support the design team and develop thermal models and sketches to help optimise the building fabric, provide external and internal shading to avoid overheating and calculate daylight factors to optimise windows and reduce the need for artificial lighting.
Developers require an indication of how much the building will cost to operate and how efficient it will be against similar buildings to further demonstrate to the planning department. BSE 3D prepare a fully dynamic computer simulation of the building before it is built in order to demonstrate to the planning department that the energy performance has been properly considered and optimised. Our engineers work with our energy assessors to develop strategies and workable designs tailored to the Clients budgets at early stages.
Many Local Authorities now require evidence of sustainable design and development. To satisfy this BSE 3D provide a BREEAM AP and BREEAM assessor service. We work with developers and the design teams to develop and engineer a sustainable, more energy efficient development to exceed expectations whatever the budget. Our specialists attend and host workshops with the design team to encourage thinking ‘outside the box’ and continual innovation.
As specialists in Building Information Modelling (BIM) BSE3D develop models at planning stage to demonstrate how the engineering services will look, how they can be safely accessed and serviced and in order to assess noise levels.

We have been delighted with the performance of BSE 3D. They were able to take our requirements, develop our brief and prepare a design all within a tight timeframe. They then tendered and managed the entire build process to budget. I would not hesitate to recommend them.
Our company employ many consultants, to develop design specifications and act as Lead Designer. Over the last two years we have worked together on a new data centre design. On a project of this size there are always areas to be developed and I was particularly pleased with BSE 3D’s response to any issues that arose by providing solution options and making sure the results matched our requirements. BSE 3D produced the Test Specification document used to test the full infrastructure and during the busy commissioning and test phase they were in attendance to witness and sign-off the test documents which confirm the test results fully meet the design standards and test specification.
QData QFZ LLC hired the services of BSE3D for the MEP Design, Consultation and Supervision works of two Data Centers at the Qatar Free Zones of located in Ras Bu Fontas (capacity of 6MW) and Um Al Haul (capacity of 4MW), both of which were customized to the End ?User’s requirements and were successfully delivered. In addition to this, both Data Centers applied for Uptime Institute Tier III Certifications for Design, Construction and Operation in which BSE3D was also involved.
Both projects were well designed, executed and delivered within the agreed time-frame despite many challenges locally and internationally. BSE3D were a key figure in assisting and supporting us as a client to overcome all obstacles, leading to the success of both projects. Their performance and technical support were critical.
We would recommend BSE3D for future projects, given their commitment and their expertise in dealing with regulations within Qatar and the GCC region in general.
We at Colt have worked with BSE3D many times over the years and have always had a brilliant experience with them. The BSE3D team always go above and beyond to ensure designs and projects run smoothly.
In particular as an example; their assistance over the last 3 years on a complicated Generator and switchboard sequencing project has been brilliant. This project was a challenge due to the Data Centre being fully populated and live with customer loads but key switchboard and generator works needed to be completed seamlessly. They created the in depth design brief which was of a very high standard that allowed the project to be completed smoothly with no issues whatsoever.
They are a great team to work with and all members of the team have a very high level of technical knowledge and all work to a very high standard too.
BSE3D have been an unbelievable find for Quantum Switch their contribution to our growth and success in expanding market places coupled with their diligent well experienced certified Data Centre professional engineers has made this possible. What we value most about our relationship is the personal service and technical knowledge available when required. We would have no hesitation in recommending BSE3D Limited for any type of Data Centre projects as long as it’s not in competition.
Beckman Coulter have worked with BSE|3D for 4 years now and I personally have worked with BSE|3D during this time to successfully deliver numerous business critical projects. Beckman Coulter has a close working relationship with BSE|3D’s who have an open mind to new ideas/solutions, diligent approach to deliver cost and time effective solutions within their M & E designs for our projects.
BSE3D were recommended to us by the former head of project management at Mace to advise us in relation to a number of areas relating to the Great Northern Hotel’s mechanical & electrical systems. Over a period of almost two years, BSE3D have helped us enormously through a combination of their vast technical knowledge and their ability to diplomatically drive forward our agenda without fear of upsetting the incumbent teams.
Huge thanks and congratulations to BSE 3D on completing your recent cycle challenge. Most of you have been back already, and I hope you are starting to get over your jetlag and getting back to normality. It’s always a bit difficult settling into the swing of real life! I have had a report about the challenge from the local crew, whom spoke extremely highly of you all while on the challenge, so well done – you’ve also all done a phenomenal job raising funds for such a worthwhile cause!!!
