BIM services — modeling, clash detection, Scan to BIM

Core services

What we’re asked for most

Fast, reliable answers to the most common questions in construction and design — from survey to clash-free drawings.

Building information model (BIM)

A 3D model at a defined level of detail (LOD 100–500) covering every relevant discipline: architecture, structure, MEP, electrical — in one shared, coordinated model and coordinate system.

LOD 100–500All disciplinesRevit / ArchiCAD

3D modeling of 2D MEP & electrical drawings

We model the work of 2D designers in space, so the real footprint, crossings and buildability of systems show up in the model.

Clash detection

During design or before construction: multi-round clash detection with reporting and changes fed back into the model. We also check sprinkler and MEP crossings with the structure.

Coordination & installation drawings

Clash-free, issue-ready installation drawings per discipline, with wall elevations and, on request, quantity take-offs. What’s on the drawing fits on site — with less rework.

Survey, Scan to BIM

We capture the existing state to millimetre accuracy with a 3D laser scanner, then build a clean, design-ready model from it. The most accurate starting point for refurbishment and extension.

Facility management model

We feed the as-built state back into the model and enrich it with the data needed for operation. The resulting model can, in the future, be linked to BMS and FM systems.

Who gets what

We work to where your project stands

The same model delivers different value to the designer, the contractor and the owner. Here are the most common tasks by role.

For designers

3D processing of 2D drawings (architecture, MEP, electrical)
Producing a Revit file from ArchiCAD drawings
Federating discipline drawings into one model
Clash detection during design

For general contractors

Multi-round clash detection (sprinkler, MEP vs. structure)
2D clash-free installation drawings
3D images and wall elevations
Quantity take-offs from the model
Support for as-built documentation
Comparing 2D drawings (PDF, DWG), difference reports

For owners

Accurate survey of the as-built state
Enriching the BIM model with data
Linking to FM and BMS systems
Handover data prepared for operation

Digital integration

When you need not just a model, but organised project data

A construction project produces a huge amount of information: models, drawings, decisions, approvals, changes. That value is quickly lost if it lives on in separate folders and emails. Digital integration puts it all into one traceable, verifiable system that supports design, construction and handover.

BIM & information management strategy

Up front we clarify which models, data and approvals will be needed, and how digital working should directly support the client’s decisions.

Setting up a common data environment (CDE)

Everyone works from a single valid source: models, sheets, decisions and approvals, in order. Less version confusion, clearer accountability, fewer errors built from outdated drawings.

Model coordination & data standards

We check discipline models by a shared logic — not just geometry but information content — so the model stays usable from tender through construction to operation.

Scan to BIM & digitising the existing state

Accurate survey and modeling of existing buildings from point cloud. For refurbishment and extension, this is the safe, risk-reducing starting point.

Digital handover & FM preparation

We organise the handover model and data from an operations perspective too, so maintenance, leasing and future changes run smoothly.

Digital twin · we do this too

Digital twin: a living copy of the finished building

The foundation is an accurate, as-built model-based dataset that can later be made ready for operation. On that base — if needed — a digital twin can be built that takes in sensor and IoT data and tracks the building’s operation in real time.

Predictive maintenance

Failures can be predicted and downtime prevented.

Energy management

Consumption can be optimised in real time, data-driven.

Space & asset management

Every asset, area and document one click away.

Better decisions

Extensions and changes can be simulated on the model first.

FAQ

What we’re asked most often

Short answers to the most common questions. If you’d like to ask about your project, write to us — we reply within 48 hours.

What is a BIM model, and how is it more than a 3D visualisation?

BIM stands for Building Information Modeling: alongside the 3D geometry, the model carries data about every element — materials, dimensions, system relationships. It is not a visualisation but a working tool: clash detection, quantity take-offs, installation drawings and operations data are all built on it.

How much does BIM modeling cost?

The price depends on project size, the number of disciplines, the required level of development (LOD) and the deadline. Send us your drawings or basic data via the contact form — we reply within 48 hours with an indicative quote, no strings attached.

What is Scan to BIM and when do you need it?

We survey the existing building with a 3D laser scanner to millimetre accuracy, then build a design-ready BIM model from the point cloud. For refurbishments, extensions and as-built documentation it is the most accurate, lowest-risk starting point.

What does clash detection deliver in practice?

We cross-check the discipline models, so clashes (e.g. ductwork versus structure) surface in the model, not on site. Industry experience puts on-site rework at 5–15% of project cost — timely clash detection prevents most of those errors for a fraction of that.

Which software and formats do you work with?

We work primarily in Autodesk Revit, in ArchiCAD on request; we use Navisworks for clash detection and ReCap for point clouds. Deliverables are also available in open formats (IFC, BCF), so the model can be used in other systems.

What does LOD mean, and which level should you ask for?

LOD (Level of Development) describes the model’s detail level from 100 to 500 — from concept model to the as-built model. The right level depends on how the model will be used; we agree on it before quoting, so you only pay for what you actually need.

Can you help on a project already under construction?

Yes. If a clash surfaces mid-construction or you need a quick as-built survey, we start on short notice and fit the site’s schedule.
