Case Study:

As BYK’s facility evolved, maintaining accurate, field-aligned documentation became critical to support efficient operations, future upgrades, and long-term system planning. A standardized, reliable as-built drawing set was needed to improve visibility, consistency, and maintainability across all control panels.

Key needs included:

• Clear I/O wiring visibility
• Consistent panel documentation
• Improved troubleshooting efficiency
• Structured support for future modifications and expansion
• Standardized drawing organization

To address this, NTG was engaged to develop a complete, field-aligned as-built documentation package for all nineteen control panels and establish a scalable drawing standard.

NTG implemented a comprehensive documentation strategy utilizing AutoCAD Electrical, delivering a clean, organized, and expandable drawing system designed for long-term use.

Complete Panel As-Built Documentation

NTG developed a fully coordinated as-built package for all nineteen panels, including:

Panel Layouts

• 19 panel layout packages
• 3 drawings per panel:
  • Exterior Layout
  • Interior Layout
  • Bill of Materials (BOM)

I/O Wiring Drawings

• Developed from client-provided spreadsheets
• 6–8 I/O drawings per panel
• Clear terminal identification and structured wire mapping
• Organized for streamlined troubleshooting and future modifications

Power Distribution Drawings

• 2–3 power distribution drawings per panel
• Accurate internal power routing representation

Total Deliverables

• ~220 drawings
• Standardized file naming and structured organization
• Developed entirely in AutoCAD Electrical for maintainability and scalability

NTG worked directly with BYK’s operations and engineering teams to ensure every drawing reflected real-world field conditions.

Support included:

• Virtual and on-site coordination meetings
• Component and wiring validation
• Alignment of documentation with installed equipment

The result was a documentation package built from the field up—not theoretical design.

To strengthen document control and long-term maintainability, NTG also facilitated:

• Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) training
• Workflow guidance for structured document management
• Administrative setup support

This provided BYK with a centralized, organized platform for managing and maintaining their documentation moving forward.

BYK now has a complete, accurate, and standardized as-built documentation system for all nineteen control panels.

Key Outcomes:

• Fully documented I/O wiring schematics
• Accurate, field-aligned panel layouts
• Structured power distribution documentation
• Improved troubleshooting efficiency
• Enhanced maintenance planning
• Scalable foundation for system expansion
• Centralized document control through ACC

• Complete documentation for 19 control panels
• ~220 structured, maintainable AutoCAD Electrical drawings
• Standardized I/O and power distribution documentation
• Improved operational clarity and efficiency
• Scalable framework for future growth
• Enhanced internal documentation processes

NTG delivered a technically sound, standardized control panel documentation system designed for clarity, maintainability, and long-term operational success.
