ArchiLabs×BR Bluerithm
Proposed integration collaboration
Carry design intent into commissioning — and field truth back to the model.
ArchiLabs structures the equipment, performance targets, sequences, and project context created during design. Bluerithm tracks installation, startup, functional testing, issues, and closeout in the field. A connected workflow can keep that same project data moving in both directions instead of rebuilding it at the handoff.
This page presents a proposed collaboration and integration direction. Exact scope, field ownership, sync cadence, and product availability would be defined with pilot teams.

Design
Generate layouts, place equipment, structure parameters, coordinate systems, and preserve design context.
03
Commission
Track installation, startup, PFCs, functional tests, integrated systems testing, issues, and readings.
04
Hand off
Return installed and verified data to the project record and carry it into operations-ready systems.
Two complementary systems
One project record, across the boundary where teams usually start over.
ArchiLabs goes deepest before equipment reaches the site. Bluerithm goes deepest once that equipment is being installed, started, tested, and closed out. The collaboration opportunity is the boundary between them.
ArchiLabs · Design and delivery
Create structured facility intent
Model data halls and MEP systems, place smart equipment, extract manufacturer parameters, reason over project context, validate constraints, and generate structured deliverables.
Equipment lists, tags, system assignments, and areas served
Airflow, static pressure, capacity, voltage, kW, dimensions, and other design properties
Design basis, redundancy requirements, sequences, RFIs, schedules, and handoff context
Bluerithm · Commissioning and field verification
Turn design intent into verified reality
Track equipment through installation, startup, prefunctional checklists, functional performance tests, integrated systems tests, issue resolution, and owner reporting.
Installed manufacturer, model, serial number, nameplate data, and field readings
Checklist and test status, results, timestamps, and evidence
Issues, deficiencies, notes, attachments, and traceable resolution history
Before site: define what the equipment is supposed to be and do.After site: capture what was installed, how it performed, and what changed.
Connected workflow
A practical path from coordinated design to verified handoff.
The integration can begin with a focused set of equipment and fields, then expand as project teams agree on identifiers, source-of-truth rules, approval steps, and update cadence.
01
Seed the commissioning project from the design.
Equipment ArchiLabs placed in the model — such as AHUs, CRAHs, chillers, pumps, UPS modules, PDUs, generators, and VAV boxes — can become the starting equipment register in Bluerithm with matching tags, systems, and areas.
02
Pre-populate the values technicians are meant to verify.
Design parameters can populate the design-value side of equipment records and test forms, while structured design basis and sequence context can support test procedure development and workflow sequencing.
03
Capture startup, TAB, test results, and deficiencies in the field.
Bluerithm becomes the working record for field-measured values, checklists, functional testing, integrated systems testing, issues, evidence, and resolution history.
04
Send commissioned reality back to the model.
Installed manufacturer and model data, serial numbers, nameplate values, field readings, verification status, and issue outcomes can update the design/handoff record instead of remaining isolated in a separate closeout package.
05
Deliver an operations-ready record of the facility as commissioned.
The downstream handoff can reflect not only what was drawn, but what was installed, tested, and verified — ready to feed owner systems such as DCIM, EPMS, BMS, or digital twin workflows.
Integration contract: not every field needs to sync. A pilot should define stable equipment identifiers, the system of record for each field, approval rules, error handling, and whether changes move on demand, on approval, or on a defined cadence.
Integration shape
Connect the data that makes commissioning traceable to design intent.
The highest-value connection is a shared equipment and system context that survives design changes, field verification, issue resolution, and final turnover.
Equipment + tags
Carry equipment type, tag, system assignment, area served, and related identity fields into the commissioning register without re-keying.
Design properties
Move airflow, pressure, capacity, voltage, kW, dimensions, and other design values into records that also hold field-verified values.
Sequences + design basis
Preserve redundancy requirements, sequence context, and basis-of-design information that can inform testing and acceptance workflows.
Change propagation
When equipment moves, resizes, or changes during construction, update affected commissioning records instead of allowing the two systems to drift apart.
Field verification
Return installed equipment details, startup/TAB readings, checklist status, functional test results, dates, and evidence to the project record.
Issue feedback loop
Feed field-discovered clearance, sequence, performance, and access issues back into validation and RFI workflows with a traceable resolution history.
Mission-critical first
The more unforgiving the project, the more valuable continuity becomes.
01 · MULTI-LEVEL COMMISSIONING
Carry context from factory testing through integrated systems testing.
Data center commissioning spans equipment, system, and integrated testing under load. A connected record reduces the number of times teams have to reconstruct the same equipment identity and design target at each phase.
02 · REDUNDANCY + PERFORMANCE
Move beyond “designed as 2N” to “verified as commissioned.”
When test status and field readings can flow back to the project model, the handoff can distinguish an intended topology from one that has been verified under the required conditions.
03 · HEAVY DOCUMENTATION
Reduce manual rebuild where equipment count and closeout burden are highest.
Mission-critical facilities combine large equipment inventories with strict documentation requirements. That makes repeated spreadsheet and PDF re-entry particularly costly and risky.
How it can work under the hood
Connect through APIs, SDK workflows, or agent-assisted orchestration.
The proposed architecture does not require either platform to become a closed system of record for everything. Teams can define a project-specific data contract and use conventional synchronization or agent-assisted workflows where that adds value.

The value of continuity
Fewer manual boundaries. More traceable decisions.
A successful pilot should make it easier for design, commissioning, and owner teams to work from the same equipment identity and a progressively more accurate project record.
✓
Less re-entryReduce manual rebuilding of equipment lists, tags, design targets, and closeout records between tools.
✓
Stronger field contextPut design values and sequence context in front of technicians where startup and test decisions are being made.
✓
Faster change awarenessKeep construction changes from silently creating mismatches between the current design and the commissioning database.
✓
Traceable verificationTie installed values, test status, issues, and resolution history back to the equipment and systems they verify.
✓
Operations-ready turnoverHand owners a record that reflects the facility as commissioned — not only the facility as drawn.
Plan the first workflow
Build this integration around a real project.
Start with one data center or mission-critical project, one equipment family or system, and the data your teams currently re-enter by hand. From there, define the identifiers, fields, ownership rules, and checkpoints that matter most.
Commissioning providers: bring the field workflow and test requirements.
Design firms: bring the model, design basis, and change-management process.
Owners: bring the handoff requirements and downstream operations systems.
