P.Eng.-led quality system · APEGA Permit to Practice · Professional liability insured

Get your drawings done — without hiring a drafting department.

Send us your sketches, markups, or existing files. We confirm the scope, price, deliverables, and timeline before work begins—then deliver clear, coordinated drawings through a managed production team with Canadian review before delivery.

1 · Problem & Solution

Getting drawings done shouldn’t be this hard.

Companies often face one of two problems: inconsistent drawing workloads do not justify a full-time hire, or internal design teams are already overloaded.

Problem 1 — Too Expensive

“We can’t afford a full-time draftsman.”

A full-time drafting position creates a permanent cost for salary, benefits, software, onboarding, and management—even when the drawing workload is inconsistent.

✓ Our solution: Pay only for the work you need, with the scope and price confirmed before work begins.

Problem 2 — Too Slow

“We’re stuck waiting on our design department.”

When internal teams are overloaded, drawing updates and revisions can delay the entire project.

✓ Our solution: Your team makes the design decisions; we manage drafting, updates, and revisions.

A managed alternative to hiring or coordinating multiple freelancers.

You pay only for the capacity you need, while SensiImage manages the scope, production, file control, review, and delivery.

What this pricing looks like

See the typical quantity and detail associated with a small task and a multi-sheet package.

Small Drawing Task

One clearly defined job — a new sheet from your sketch or model, a few detail updates, or simple revisions.

Typically: one drawing sheet, or two to three small updates.

Assumes your design information is ready to use. Design changes or engineering input take more time.

Multi-Sheet Drawing Package

A larger job — several related sheets with plans, sections, details, and schedules, built from your project information.

Typically: four to six coordinated sheets, or a similar set of updates.

Assumes the design direction is already set. Complex shapes, new design work, or missing files add time.

7 · Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers before you send a project.

How quoting, revisions, permits, and engineering responsibility work.

Do you provide engineering and authenticated drawings?
Yes, when the project requires engineering judgment, design responsibility, or authenticated deliverables. Engineering is provided under a separately scoped written proposal by the appropriate qualified licensed professional.
Can you prepare drawings for permit submission?
Yes. We can prepare coordinated permit-submission drawing packages based on the agreed scope. Acceptance remains subject to the authority having jurisdiction, applicable codes, and any required professional reviews or authentication.
Can you work with our engineer, architect, or contractor?
Yes. We can provide drafting, BIM, detailing, and coordination support under your consultant’s direction, allowing their time to remain focused on design decisions, review, and professional responsibility.
What information can I send for a quote?
Send sketches, photographs, markups, PDFs, CAD files, Revit models, point clouds, specifications, existing drawings, or a short written description. We will identify any missing information during scope review.
How are revisions handled?
Hourly assignments are revised at the applicable hourly rate. Fixed-price projects generally include one consolidated revision round unless the written proposal states otherwise. New design direction or added scope is quoted before proceeding.
Where do you provide engineering services?
Engineering services are provided in Alberta under SensiImage’s APEGA Permit to Practice. For work elsewhere, applicable licensing and registration requirements are confirmed during scoping. Drafting and modelling support can be provided more broadly.
