• Estimating
  • Extract quantity data from Revit building information models (BIM) for estimating teams, while cross-referencing contract drawings and specifications for model accuracy
• Design Detailing
  • Convert 2D drawing information to 3D Revit models for design and construction details, including the creation of custom parametric Revit families
• Digital Layout
  • Provide model-based layout coordinates to field surveying teams onsite for the layout of self-perform concrete, steel, utilities, and other systems
• Reality Capture
  • Process, register, and publish laser scan point cloud data for coordination
• Business Development & Scheduling
