Scaling Your Architecture Firm Just Got Easier.
Reliable, NCS-Compliant Backend Drafting & BIM Production for U.S. Architects.
Stop Babysitting Freelancers.
Outsourcing shouldn’t feel like taking on a second job. Most offshore drafters just trace lines, leaving the heavy burden of technical resolution entirely on your shoulders. At Grupo 284, we operate as a true backend partner. We don't just draft; we apply constructability logic, adhere strictly to the National CAD Standard (NCS), and work natively in imperial units. We deliver highly coordinated sets that require your final approval, not your constant micromanagement—freeing your time to focus on design intent, client acquisition, and scaling your firm.
Step 1: Design Handoff: You send your schematic designs, redlines, or point clouds.
Step 2: Production & Coordination: Our backend team builds the BIM or 2D CAD models and drafts the sheets, resolving basic spatial conflicts.
Step 3: Ready for Review: You receive clean, layered CAD/Revit/Archicad files and PDF sets ready for your final QC and engineering overlay.

Founded in 2014, Grupo 284 was built to bridge the gap between U.S. design firms and high-quality, reliable technical execution. Based in South America, we offer a strategic nearshore advantage: we operate in your time zone (EST/AST) for seamless real-time communication. Led by a team with hands-on field and architectural engineering experience, we don’t just draw from a desk—we understand how buildings go together. When you partner with us, you aren't hiring an isolated drafter; you are plugging into a fully equipped architectural production studio dedicated to U.S. standards.
