Our key offerings

Construction

Verification

Compare scanned conditions to plans to ensure construction aligns with design intent. Spot deviations early to avoid costly rework and delays—useful for contractors fabricating materials that must integrate with onsite conditions.

Existing Conditions Point Clouds

Capture critical dimensions and fine details with our 3D LiDAR scans, which can be formatted, optimized, or hosted for seamless sharing among AEC partners. This comprehensive data eliminates extra site visits and lays the groundwork for retrofit, repurpose, or expansion projects—all at a great value.

Clash Detection and Resolution

World-class 3D Revit models of existing conditions, developed from precise reality capture data. Optimized for unique workflows and rigorously quality controlled to provide a reliable foundation for repurposing, retrofits, fit-ups, or additions.

Scan to BIM

Transform point clouds into world-class, data-driven Revit models that form the backbone of your retrofit, repurpose, or expansion project. Our rigorous quality control and workflow optimization ensure complete accuracy—improving collaboration, decision-making, and overall project outcomes.

01

Outdated or inaccurate documentation

Our Reality Capture services deliver up-to-date, detailed 3D representations of your facility.
Say goodbye to outdated plans and unreliable manual measurements—start your project with precise, reliable data to avoid costly errors.

02

Inefficient collaboration between stakeholders

By providing BIM models and CAD drawings derived from our scans, we ensure that every stakeholder—from architects to contractors—is aligned with the same accurate data.
This fosters better communication and accelerates project timelines.

03

Unexpected construction deviations

Our Construction Verification services detect deviations early by comparing as-built scans to your original design. This proactive approach saves time, prevents rework, and keeps your project moving forward.

04

Time-Consuming site visits and measurements

Access every detail of your facility or job site remotely with our precise scans.
This eliminates unnecessary site visits, saving time and resources while maintaining the accuracy you need for effective project management.
