What You Can Expect

We start by using our LiDAR equipment to capture 3D digital twins of your existing facilities, processes, and equipment. This enables precise design integration into current operations. Throughout the project, we hold regular meetings with you to review progress and gather feedback. As needed, we provide rendered presentations and lightweight 3D models for review, which can be accessed on any computer.

We deliver construction design documents with varying levels of detail, from LOD-100 to LOD-500, including spool drawings, coordination drawings, and specifications, ensuring a timely project completion.
