What Aqua Utility Designs and Management Pvt. Ltd. does

Aqua Utility Designs and Management Pvt. Ltd. (AUDMPL), formerly Aqua Designs, is a privately held Indian MEPF (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, and Fire Fighting) design consultancy founded in 2002 and headquartered in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. The firm provides integrated, single-point MEPF design services for buildings and facilities spanning residential, commercial, healthcare, hospitality, industrial, educational, and institutional segments, delivered through four Indian offices (Ahmedabad HQ, Indore regional office, and representative offices in Mumbai and Rajkot) with cumulative execution of 2,500+ projects across 22 Indian states and 2 Union Territories, plus South Africa, serving 750+ clients.

The company's core service portfolio covers plumbing design, fire fighting and detection design, electrical design, HVAC and ventilation, low/medium voltage and building automation, medical gas systems (for hospitals), solid waste management, vertical/horizontal transport, acoustics, and green building design (LEED/GRIHA). Underlying technology is built on Building Information Modeling using REVIT-MEP for 3D parametric modeling, clash detection, and multi-disciplinary coordination across duct, plumbing, mechanical piping, and electrical systems. Adjacent offerings include MEPF Audit Services (HSE, fire safety, electrical safety audits) and Management and Coordination Services covering tender documentation, techno-commercial evaluation, on-site supervision, and as-built drawings. The firm's go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting architects, developers, and institutional clients, with project-based, quote-driven pricing on multi-year engagements; growth is driven by professional referrals, industry association participation (IPA, FSAI, ISHRAE, IGBC), and thought-leadership content rather than paid marketing.

Revenue is generated through professional consultancy fees on a project-by-project basis, with no public pricing tiers. The 55-person firm is led by Managing Director Dipen Mehta and Directors Minesh Shah and Alkesh Pathak, each with two decades of domain tenure, and operates an affiliate relationship with PCS Project Management Pvt. Ltd.
