Scan to BIM for factories, warehouses and process plants
New production lines have to fit around existing services, and a shutdown that runs long costs more than the entire survey. We deliver the accuracy that keeps a shutdown on schedule.
Sector snapshot
What usually drives the briefBuilt for the shutdown clock
In a live plant, a measurement error costs a day of production, not a design change. We model piping, structure and equipment with real measured dimensions and verify every proposed tie in point before fabrication ever starts.
Projects are scheduled backwards from your shutdown date, so verified tie in data reaches your fabricator with time to spare rather than arriving the week before the plant goes down. This is exactly what our plant and industrial scan to BIM service is built for.
Why sector experience matters here
- Programmes planned backwards from your shutdown date
- Tie in points measured and reported with coordinates
- Structural steel and process piping modeled together
- Experienced working around live, operating facilities

Industrial and Manufacturing questions we hear most
Straight answers so you can scope your project with confidence.
Yes. Tell us the shutdown window at quote stage and we plan the whole programme backwards from it, so verified data reaches your fabricator with time to spare.
Yes, and it is one of the most valuable things we do. Each tie in gets a measured coordinate and a tolerance note, which is what stops a spool arriving short on site.
Yes, working with your safety team on access and any permit to work requirements. Most process facility surveys are completed without stopping production.
Yes. Process piping, steel structure and equipment are modeled together and federated into one coordinated model, since clashes usually happen at the interface between them.
