A local engineering desk for building services engineers
Download (coming soon)Features
MEP Desk helps engineers search technical references, run calculations, and organise project information in one local workspace.
It fits into daily workflow as a desktop tool for finding standards, documenting assumptions, and managing project data without cloud dependencies.
- Runs entirely on your machine
- No cloud, no accounts, no sync
- Sources and assumptions always visible
Reference search, with provenance
Find standards and notes quickly, while keeping the source visible and traceable.
Learn how it works →Calculations you can audit
Inputs, assumptions, and outputs stay explicit so engineering judgement remains in control.
See releases →Projects, rooms, exports
Keep project context organised and exportable without cloud dependencies.
Why local-first →Engineering responsibility
MEP Desk is designed to support engineering workflow, not replace engineering judgement.
- All calculations are user-driven and require verification.
- Sources and assumptions remain visible at all times.
- No values are generated without explicit user input.
- The software does not interpret regulations or certify compliance.
Final responsibility for design decisions remains with the engineer.
Trust and responsibility
- Local-first: no cloud, no accounts, no sync.
- Sources and assumptions are visible and auditable.
- The engineer verifies inputs and outputs.
How it works
Use MEP Desk in four steps:
Open locally
Open MEP Desk locally and select your vault folder.
Search and preview
Search your references and preview sources in-app.
Calculate and save
Run calculators, review assumptions, and save results into projects and rooms.
Export and hand over
Export summaries and project packs for documentation and handover.
Outputs are assisted, not authoritative. Engineers verify results.
Download
MEP Desk is currently distributed as a local desktop tool.
