Produces and updates drawings for site: shop drawings, mark-ups, as-builts and coordination layouts.
Direct answer
Gulf Orbit supplies AutoCAD operators to construction, infrastructure and industrial projects anywhere in Saudi Arabia. Operators produce shop and coordination drawings from design information, incorporate site mark-ups into revised drawings, maintain the as-built set, and support engineers with take-offs and layouts.
Drafting on a project comes in three kinds. Shop drawings turn design drawings into buildable detail for the site or the workshop. Mark-up work takes engineers' and surveyors' redlines and issues revised drawings quickly. As-builts record what was actually built, for handover. Each needs a different pace and a different eye for detail. State which your project needs most, so the operator is matched to it.
An operator who has drawn reinforcement details reads a structural drawing differently from one who has drawn duct and pipe coordination. Civil, MEP and structural steel drafting each have their own conventions, symbols and checks. Name the discipline and give an example drawing type in the RFQ, so operators with that background are put forward.
Most rework in a drawing office comes from revisions, not from drafting. Title blocks, layers, line weights, revision clouds and drawing registers all follow the project's CAD standard, and every issued drawing must be the latest revision. An operator who respects the standard and the drawing register saves the site from building off superseded drawings. Share your CAD standard and register with the RFQ.
Many projects now run a model in Revit or another BIM tool alongside 2D AutoCAD drawings. Model-based coordination is a different skill from 2D drafting. Say which software and version your project uses, whether the operator will work in the model or only in 2D, and whether you provide the workstation and licences, so the operator arrives ready to work on your system.
An AutoCAD operator usually sits in the site office with the engineering team: taking mark-ups from site engineers, survey data from the surveyor, and issuing drawings through document control. On large projects, several operators may split by discipline under a drawing office lead. Send the drawing workload and disciplines, and the drafting support is proposed with the engineering team.
Trade, headcount, site location, start date, duration and shift pattern. Anything you can add about site access and permit requirements shortens the next step.
Complete RFQs get a priced quotation, or an acknowledgement with any questions needed to price them, within 24 hours (Sunday–Thursday).
CVs, iqama and trade documentation, with TUV or Aramco card copies where the trade holds one, are submitted for your review. Nobody mobilizes before you approve the profiles.
In-Kingdom personnel mobilize to sites anywhere in Saudi Arabia within 48–72 hours of the purchase order, subject to worker documents and site approvals. Every worker completes Gulf Orbit's safety induction before deployment, and is briefed on your site's permit-to-work and access requirements.
Iqama, identification and trade documentation are available for client review before mobilization. Where a client requires a specific certification or a trade test before a worker is accepted on site, say so in the requirement and it will be addressed during matching rather than after arrival.
Some can. State the software, version and whether the work is in the model or in 2D drawings, so operators with the right experience are put forward.
Yes. Name the services to be coordinated and your coordination process in the RFQ, so operators who have drawn MEP coordination are matched.
Yes. Turning surveyor data into as-built and setting-out drawings is common work. A surveyor and an AutoCAD operator can be requested on the same RFQ.
AutoCAD operators are supplied as manpower. State in the RFQ whether your project provides the workstation and software licences, so the arrangement is clear before mobilization.
Either. State the location in the RFQ, because site office drafting usually involves more mark-ups and walking the site with engineers.
Mobilization of in-Kingdom personnel to project sites anywhere in Saudi Arabia takes 48–72 hours from purchase order (PO), subject to worker documents and site approvals.
