A Six-Step Coordination Review
Use these steps to examine affected systems, ownership, dependencies, revision impact, and unresolved project decisions.
1. Define the Shared Decision
Start by identifying which decision requires input from more than one discipline. A shared decision is one where a single team cannot finalize the outcome without confirming assumptions, dimensions, or responsibilities held by another team. Frame the decision in a single sentence so every reviewer reads the same question before proposing answers.
2. Identify Affected Teams
For each shared decision, name the primary owner and the affected reviewers. The primary owner is accountable for the answer; affected reviewers must confirm that the answer does not break their scope.
| Change | Primary owner | Affected reviewers |
|---|---|---|
| Wall relocation | Architecture | Structure, MEP |
| Ceiling adjustment | Architecture | Mechanical, Electrical |
| Equipment move | MEP | Architecture, Operations |
| Opening revision | Structure | Architecture, Fire Safety |
3. Review Physical Interfaces
Walk through the physical points where the disciplines meet. Confirm that each interface has a defined clearance, support, and sequence so the design can be built and maintained as drawn.
- Clearances
- Access
- Supports
- Openings
- Maintenance zones
- Installation sequence
4. Review Information Interfaces
Confirm that the data shared between teams is consistent. Mismatched names, levels, or responsibilities cause more rework than geometry errors because they are harder to detect.
- Naming
- Level references
- Room use
- Equipment responsibility
- Revision status
- Decision authority
5. Assign Issue Ownership
Every open issue needs a clear owner. Distinguish between the roles below so a question is never closed by someone who does not have the authority to close it.
- Reviewer — checks the proposed answer against their discipline.
- Decision owner — accountable for the final answer.
- Action owner — implements the agreed change in the model or drawings.
- Affected party — must confirm the change does not break their scope.
- Final approver — signs off that the issue is closed for all disciplines.
6. Prepare a Coordination Handoff
Before the next team picks up the package, confirm that the following are clear without a repeat discussion: the decision made, who made it, what changed in the model, what remains open, and who owns the next step. A clean handoff prevents the same question from returning in the next review cycle.
