Mission-critical & data centers
MEP-dense scans, white-space coordination, and as-built models for hyperscale and colo retrofits.
Scan-to-BIM services that turn raw point clouds into models you can actually build with.
Production-grade Revit modeling from registered laser-scan data — built to your LOD, your families, and your BIM execution plan.BimCon Solutions converts terrestrial and mobile scan data into intelligent, parametric Revit models for architects, engineers, owners, and contractors. Every model is delivered with documented LOD, deviation analysis, and a clean federation strategy so downstream teams can coordinate, fabricate, and operate without rebuilding what we delivered.

Why Scan-to-BIM matters
A point cloud is not a model. A model is a decision surface.
Raw scan data answers the question 'what is there?' but it does not let teams design, coordinate, or estimate. A well-built Revit model translates millions of measured points into the elements people need to make calls on.
- Designers cannot detail against a 12 GB point cloud — they need walls, structure, and MEP elements.
- Coordination platforms (Navisworks, BIM Track) need geometry, not raw scans.
- Fabrication shops need model-driven dimensions, not screenshots from Cyclone.
- Owners need a maintainable as-built model, not a static deliverable that goes stale.
How we model from scans
Modeled to the LOD you actually need — no more, no less.
We scope each project against a documented LOD matrix so you only pay to model what your downstream workflow consumes.
Pillar 01
LOD-driven scope
We agree the LOD per discipline up front (LOD 200 architectural, LOD 350 MEP, etc.) and lock it into the modeling brief.
Pillar 02
Family + standards alignment
Models use your Revit families, shared parameters, naming conventions, and view templates — not generic content.
Pillar 03
Deviation control
Every model is checked against the cloud with a deviation report so you can prove geometric fidelity to clients and downstream trades.
Deliverables
What a Scan-to-BIM engagement includes.
- Native Revit (.rvt) models per discipline at agreed LOD
- Federated Navisworks (.nwd / .nwc) coordination model
- IFC 2x3 / IFC 4 exports for openBIM workflows
- Cloud-to-model deviation report (color-mapped PDF + summary)
- Linked point cloud (.rcp) packaged with the model
- BIM execution plan compliance checklist signed off at handover
LOD strategy
Match modeling depth to the decision being made.
LOD 200 — design intent
Generic geometry sized and located accurately. Used for early design, space planning, and feasibility.
LOD 300 — design coordination
Specific systems, sized and connected, suitable for trade coordination and clash detection.
LOD 350 — fabrication-ready
MEP routed with hangers, valves, and connection details — ready for SysQue, Stratus, or shop drawings.
LOD 400 / 500 — as-built and operations
Verified-installed geometry with manufacturer data attached for handover and digital twin programs.
Process
Inside a typical Scan-to-BIM workflow.
- Step 01
Brief and LOD matrix
Define discipline scope, LOD per element, families, and acceptance criteria.
- Step 02
Cloud preparation
Receive or capture the cloud, register, and prepare the modeling reference.
- Step 03
Modeling and QA
Discipline modelers build inside Revit with continuous internal QA against the cloud.
- Step 04
Deviation and handover
Generate the deviation report, federate, and hand over via your CDE with sign-off.
