CAD Services Sydney | In-House & Secondment Engineering Support

Professional CAD Services in Sydney

When it comes to CAD services in Sydney, the difference is not just capability โ€” itโ€™s how that capability is delivered.

At Hamilton By Design, we provide both:

  • In-house CAD services (fully managed delivery)
  • Secondment CAD services (embedded within your team)

This gives you the flexibility to choose the right approach for your project โ€” whether you need a complete outsourced solution or direct support within your team.

In-House CAD Services (Fully Managed Delivery)

Our in-house CAD services are designed to deliver complete, end-to-end outcomes.

We manage:

  • Scope definition
  • CAD modelling and drafting
  • Engineering review and quality control
  • Final deliverables ready for fabrication or construction

This approach is ideal for:

  • Defined project scopes
  • Drawing packages
  • Scan-to-CAD modelling
  • Brownfield upgrades with clear deliverables

Secondment CAD Services (Embedded Support)

For projects requiring closer collaboration, we offer Secondment Services:
https://www.hamiltonbydesign.com.au/home/secondment-services/

This allows our engineers and designers to:

  • Work directly within your systems and processes
  • Integrate with your project teams
  • Support shutdowns and peak workloads
  • Provide continuity across design and execution

Secondment is ideal for:

  • Long-term projects
  • Multi-vendor environments
  • Ongoing plant upgrades
  • Internal resource gaps

Engineering-Led CAD โ€” Not Just Drafting

Whether delivered in-house or through secondment, our CAD services are always engineering-led.

We focus on:

  • Constructability
  • Real-world constraints
  • Alignment with Australian standards
  • Practical, buildable outcomes

Our CAD Services in Sydney

2D Drafting & Drawing Development

  • General Arrangement (GA) drawings
  • Layout drawings for engineering proposals
  • Sections, elevations, and details
  • Drawing revisions and updates

3D CAD Modelling

  • SolidWorks mechanical modelling
  • Plant and equipment modelling
  • Structural and pipework modelling
  • Simplified coordination models

Point Cloud to CAD (Scan-to-Model)

  • Conversion of LiDAR scans (.E57, .RCP, .LAS)
  • Accurate as-built modelling
  • Critical for brownfield and retrofit projects

Built for Brownfield Projects

Sydney projects are typically brownfield, not greenfield.

We specialise in:

  • Retrofit design
  • Existing plant modifications
  • Clearance verification
  • Working with incomplete or outdated drawings

Delivery can be:

  • Fully managed in-house, or
  • Supported through secondment

LiDAR Scanning Integration

Our CAD services integrate with engineering-grade LiDAR scanning, ensuring designs are based on real-world data rather than assumptions.

This results in:

  • Accurate as-built models
  • Reduced rework
  • Improved design confidence

Drawing Control & Engineering Governance

We also support:

  • Revision control (IFR / IFA / IFC)
  • Drawing registers and version tracking
  • Cloud-based access via 3DEXPERIENCE
  • 24/7 access to current drawings

This can be delivered as a managed service or integrated through secondment.
