3D Laser Scanning, BIM Coordination & Digital Delivery
Planning a renovation, installing equipment, or coordinating building systems? Start with information your team can use.
OAR helps owners, contractors, and engineering teams document existing spaces, coordinate models, and establish digital workflows for planning, construction, and handoff.
Three services. Built around what you need next.
Start with one service or combine several within an agreed scope.
3D Laser Scanning, Scan-to-BIM & As-Builts
OAR captures accessible existing conditions and prepares point clouds, Revit models, or 2D drawings. Use that documentation to review existing spaces, plan renovations, develop designs, or assess equipment layouts.
BIM Coordination & Virtual Construction
OAR develops and coordinates models, reviews system interfaces and clearances, and tracks modeled issues for responsible project teams to resolve. Coordination models, clash reports, issue logs, and documentation support review before fabrication and installation.
Digital Delivery & Implementation
OAR sets up shared project-data environments and helps teams agree on how to organize, review, and hand off information. Work can include BIM Execution Plans, platform configurations, information standards, training, and handoff documentation.
See how the work comes together
Define the deliverable around the decision
We start with the decision your team needs to make. Then we agree on the information and deliverables needed to support it, based on your project, available information, and site constraints.
Understand the project need
Review the project purpose, source information, site constraints, and the decisions your deliverables need to support.
Agree on the requirements
Define the coverage, model content, formats, responsibilities, review points, and delivery milestones.
Develop and review the work
Carry out the agreed scanning, modeling, coordination, or implementation activities, with review points appropriate to the scope.
Prepare the handoff
Review the deliverables with your team. Include documentation, training, and follow-up support where agreed in the scope.
Support for the way your team works
Find support for the spaces, systems, and project information your team works with.
General Contractors & Construction Managers
Planning work across multiple trades? Bring existing-conditions documentation and model coordination into project planning and installation reviews.
HVAC & Mechanical Contractors
Replacing equipment or routing new systems? Review existing spaces, connection points, and modeled clearances before detailing and installation.
Industrial Owners & Operators
Planning a retrofit or equipment change? Document your facility and review how proposed modifications fit the existing space.
Engineering & Environmental Firms
Need an existing-conditions reference for analysis or design? Work from spatial documentation and organized project datasets.
Equipment Suppliers & Integrators
Preparing equipment for delivery and installation? Review how it interfaces with existing structures and building systems.
Materials Recovery Facilities
Upgrading a facility or integrating a new system? Connect existing-conditions documentation, equipment layouts, and coordination models.
The people behind the work
Meet the people who capture site conditions, develop and coordinate models, and help project teams put their information to work.
FAQs
What does OAR deliver from a 3D laser scan?
Depending on the scope, OAR can deliver a registered point cloud, a Revit model, or 2D existing-conditions drawings. The appropriate deliverable depends on what your team needs to review, design, or coordinate.
What is the difference between laser scanning and Scan-to-BIM?
Laser scanning captures measurements of visible surfaces to create a point cloud. Scan-to-BIM uses that captured information to develop a building information model with agreed elements, detail, and modeling requirements.
Can OAR provide BIM coordination without performing the field scan?
Yes. Coordination can begin with suitable design models, drawings, or other available information. Scanning may be recommended when current field conditions need to be documented for the intended work.
What does Digital Delivery & Implementation include?
The scope can include digital requirements, BIM Execution Plans, shared project-data environments, information standards, training, and handoff documentation. The specific work depends on your team’s existing systems and project needs.
What is OAR’s service area?
OAR provides 3D Laser Scanning in the Northeast (Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Rhode Island, and Vermont). We can also coordinate scanning in other states depending on the project scope.
BIM Coordination & Digital Delivery are available nationwide.
