Case Study: Industrial and Institutional Services Supplier achieves a 24-floor as-built BIM model with Flatworld Solutions

Industrial and Institutional Services Supplier

Industrial and Institutional Services Supplier, a U.S.-based provider of industrial and institutional services, needed help converting erratic laser-scan point cloud data into accurate as-built drawings and a building information model (BIM) for a project renovating a 4-floor building into a 24-floor residential structure. The customer also needed support with project scope, milestones, timelines, and transferring large scan files.

Flatworld Solutions provided point cloud BIM services by assigning four BIM experts, reviewing multiple scan angles and floor-wise laser scans, converting the inputs into a single Revit model, and sharing a conceptual model for client approval before finalization. Flatworld Solutions delivered the required level of detail, incorporated client feedback, and provided the files via Dropbox, helping reduce renovation and construction costs by an estimated 20% to 30%.
