Houston’s Best
AI-enabled fire protection engineering partner
Sorteria supports fire-protection contractors from Bid to Design to Engineering to Execution: bid review, takeoffs, sprinkler engineering, fire alarm packages, BIM coordination, AHJ response, shop drawings, RFIs, and field handoff.
Products
Four product desks. One project memory.
Pattern-inspired structure for Sorteria: each desk is a clear operating surface, not a loose list of services.
01
Bid Intelligence Desk
Drawing intake, takeoff support, addenda tracking, exclusions, scope risk, and estimator handoff before the number goes out.
02
Design Desk
Sprinkler layouts, fire alarm packages, ARCS drawings, calculations, and review-ready documentation.
03
Coordination Hub
BIM coordination, clash review, shop drawings, revision compare, and cross-trade handoff support.
04
Execution Intelligence
AHJ response, RFIs, field clarifications, change tracking, and install-support knowledge logs.
Solutions
Built around contractor pressure, not generic outsourcing.
Fire sprinkler contractors
Bid more work without turning design into a bottleneck.
Takeoffs, sprinkler engineering, BIM coordination, and shop drawings under one accountable workflow.
Fire alarm teams
Produce review-ready alarm packages faster.
Device layouts, risers, battery calculations, sequence notes, and AHJ comment closure.
Capacity extension
Add engineering bandwidth without hiring ahead of demand.
Flexible technical support for estimating peaks, design backlog, and fast-turn review cycles.
AHJ response
Close comments with less confusion.
Comment logs, revised drawings, accountable owners, and clean resubmission packages.
Process
How Sorteria moves a project from bid set to field handoff.
Every support lane follows the same operating rhythm so scope, review comments, revisions, and execution questions stay connected.
01 Intake
Plans, specs, addenda
We collect the project package and isolate what affects bid, design, review, or field execution.
02 Scope control
Code logic and assumptions
NFPA requirements, AHJ expectations, assumptions, and missing inputs are tracked before production.
03 Production
Drawings and coordination
Engineering documents, BIM notes, shop drawings, and revision packages are produced in sequence.
04 Handoff
Execution memory
Comments, RFIs, field notes, and decisions stay organized for the contractor team.
Capabilities
Engineering capabilities behind the product desks.
Fire sprinkler, alarm, ARCS, BIM, shop drawing, bid support, and MEP-adjacent work stay editable as WordPress service records.
Bid desk
Bid Support and Takeoff Intelligence
