Run the Design. We'll Run the Admin.
Your highest ROI is producing accurate engineering and architectural designs. Our specialized VAs handle the repetitive drafting prep, document control, and asset management that bogs down your production schedule.
Document Control & Logs
We manage your drawing issuance process. We create transmittal logs, compile final PDF sets, ensure naming conventions are strictly followed, and upload everything to client portals like Procore or BIM 360.
Drafting Prep & Setup
We set up the framework before your drafters start drawing. We format title blocks, convert architectural PDFs to base DWG files, set up standardized layer states, and clean up messy files received from external consultants.
Library & Asset Management
Stop wasting time searching for CAD blocks. We organize, tag, and maintain your standard block libraries and Revit families, ensuring your team has quick access to the correct, approved assets for every project.
Redline Pickups
Senior engineers shouldn't be fixing typos. Hand off marked-up PDFs (from Bluebeam or paper scans), and our VAs will execute the basic text, dimension, and line-work updates in the CAD file for final review.
RFI & Submittal Tracking
Keep the construction administration phase organized. We log incoming RFIs, format responses from your engineers, track submittals in spreadsheets, and chase down missing product cut-sheets from vendors.
Project Folder Setup
We ensure every new project starts clean. We create the standardized folder directory on your server, copy over necessary templates, and populate the initial project data in your management software.

Trusted by Engineering & Design Leaders
"Our senior mechanical engineers were spending hours every week just packaging PDFs, logging submittals, and fixing title blocks. Bringing on a Sagedoer CAD VA freed them up completely. Now they actually engineer, and our drawing packages go out perfectly formatted."
Robert T.
Principal, MEP Firm"Our Revit library was an absolute mess. We hired a VA through Sagedoer to strictly manage our BIM standards, organize families, and do basic redline markups. Having the Project Manager oversee their daily output means I don't have to micromanage."

Robert T.
Principal, MEP FirmFrequently Asked Questions
Will they design buildings or engineer systems from scratch?
No, they are not licensed architects or senior engineers. They handle the *administrative and operational* side of drafting. They manage document control, perform basic redline pickups (updating text/lines based on your exact markups), and format files so your senior team can focus purely on complex design.
Do I need to provide the AutoCAD or Revit licenses?
Yes. Just like any in-house employee, you will need to provision a user seat/license for the specific proprietary software your firm uses (AutoCAD, Revit, Procore, BIM 360, etc.) so the VA can work directly within your secure firm environment.
Can they read blueprints and understand layers?
Yes! Our CAD Support VAs have technical backgrounds. They understand architectural scales, standard layer management, XREFs, blocks/families, and how to properly navigate complex drawing sets to execute their tasks accurately.
