Verified geometry layer
An accurate as built BIM model of the building or asset, checked against registered scan data.
Operations and Facilities
Digital twin development that gives operations teams a model they use daily
Most digital twin projects fail because the geometry underneath is wrong. We start with a verified as built model, then connect the data that makes it useful long after handover.

Overview
A digital twin is only as trustworthy as the survey it sits on
Connecting sensors to an inaccurate model produces confident looking dashboards built on wrong assumptions. If the geometry does not match the building, nothing downstream can be relied on.
We build the twin from scan verified geometry, attach asset data your maintenance team already recognises, and connect live feeds only where they answer a real operational question. Every twin starts from a verified as built BIM model, never from assumptions.
- Scan verified geometry as the foundation layer
- Asset register mapped to your existing naming standard
- Integration with CAFM, CMMS and BMS platforms
- Dashboards built around the decisions your team makes
Why choose us
Why our twins hold up after the launch dashboard demo
A lot of digital twin projects look great on day one and get abandoned by month six. Here is why ours do not.
01
Verified geometry first
Never sensor data bolted onto guesswork
A twin built on inaccurate geometry produces confident looking dashboards that are wrong. We start from a scan verified model, always.
02
Platform neutral integration
Connects to the CAFM or CMMS you already run
We do not require you to switch platforms to adopt a twin, which is usually the first thing that kills adoption.
03
Staged delivery
Value in weeks, not at the end of a year long programme
Most successful twins start with one building and one use case, proven before scaling further.
04
COBie validated exports
Checked before they reach your platform
Data drops are tested for structural validity before handover, not just exported and left for your team to debug.
What you get
What a digital twin engagement delivers
Geometry, data and connection, delivered as one working system.
Structured asset register
Every asset classified, tagged and located, with make, model, install date and warranty data attached.
COBie and IFC exports
Validated data drops formatted to load directly into your facility management platform.
System integration
Connections to your CAFM, CMMS or BMS so work orders and readings link to real locations in the model.
Operations dashboard
A browser based view of the asset with search, filtering and drill down for non technical users.
Training and handover
Sessions with your facility team plus written guidance so the twin stays current after we leave.
Scope of work
What goes into a working twin
We build in stages so value arrives early rather than all at the end.
Included in every project
- As built geometry verified against scan data
- Asset identification and unique tagging
- Classification to Uniclass or Omniclass
- Manufacturer, model and serial data capture
- Warranty and service life records
- Maintenance schedule linkage
- Room and space data with occupancy
- Sensor and meter point mapping
- Live data connection where required
- User access roles and permissions
| Scope item | What we deliver | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| Stage 1 | Verified as built model with asset tagging | Reliable spatial and asset record |
| Stage 2 | COBie data drop and CAFM integration | Work orders linked to real locations |
| Stage 3 | BMS and sensor feed connection | Live performance and condition data |
| Stage 4 | Dashboards and analytics for operations | Energy, space and maintenance decisions |
Start small. Most successful twins begin with one building and one use case, usually maintenance or space management. Prove the value there and the case for rolling it across the estate makes itself.
How it works
How a twin is built
Data structure decisions come first because they are the expensive thing to change later.
Use case workshop
We work out what questions the twin has to answer, then design backwards from those decisions.
Geometry foundation
The as built model is built or verified so the spatial layer is trustworthy before data goes near it.
Data structuring
Asset naming, classification and parameter schema are agreed and applied consistently across the estate.
Integration
Connections to your operational systems are built and tested with real records, not sample data.
Adoption
Dashboards are tuned with the people who will use them, followed by training and a support period.
Why clients pick us for this
Accurate foundation
Built on measured geometry, not design drawings.
Platform neutral
We integrate with the systems you already run.
Staged delivery
Value arrives in weeks, not at the end of a year.
Case study
Turning a rack survey into a live capacity planning tool
Data Centers · Dublin
The challenge
A data center operator needed to know exactly how much rack, power and cooling capacity was left before committing to a 40 percent expansion, but the existing floor plans had not been updated since the last major fit out.
What we did
We built a rack level as built model tied to the operator asset register, mapped containment and cooling routes from scan data, and connected the model to their capacity planning dashboard so the numbers update as racks are added.
The result
40 percent expansion planned
Without a single new building required
1,200 racks tagged
Every rack linked to power, cooling and asset data
4 weeks to first dashboard
From scan data to a live capacity view operations could use
"We used to plan capacity from a spreadsheet nobody trusted. Now the model tells us exactly what is free before we say yes to a customer."

Questions
Digital Twin questions we hear most
Straight answers so you can scope your project with confidence.
You need accurate geometry. If a reliable model exists we verify and use it. If not, we create one from scan data as the first stage of the twin programme.
We work with common CAFM and CMMS platforms, BMS systems and IoT data services. Tell us your stack at the start and we confirm what is possible before you commit.
It can be, if there is a clear use case such as high maintenance cost, complex plant or frequent space churn. We are happy to tell you when the answer is no.
Your team, with a process we set up. We define how changes get captured, who approves them and how often the model is re verified, then train your people to run it.
For a single building with existing scan data, a verified model with a structured asset register typically takes six to ten weeks depending on size and asset count.
