Why it matters

Traditional methods of measuring and documenting existing buildings are slow, fragmented, and often unreliable.

Our consultancy brings precision, efficiency, and trust into the process, turning raw data into actionable insights and aligning them with professional services that deliver real-world results across the entire property lifecycle.

Why Traditional Methods Fall Short

Traditional methods of measuring and documenting existing buildings are slow, fragmented, and often unreliable.

They were built for another era and cannot keep pace with the demands of today’s property industry.

01

Outdated Tools

Conventional instruments only capture one point at a time rather than millions of points, making them slow and limited.

02

Human Error

Manual processes leave room for mistakes that compromise accuracy.

03

Too Generalised

Measurements are often broad strokes, lacking the precision needed for complex assets.

04

No Integrated Picture

Data is siloed and cannot be easily combined into one accurate, holistic model.

05

2D Limitations

Traditional methods are rooted in 2D, while design professionals and asset managers now work in 3D environments.

06

Outdated or Non-Existent Data

Information is often based on original design drawings, not on what was actually built or modified on site.

07

As-Built Changes not Captured

Site alterations are rarely reflected in existing drawings, leaving gaps and unknowns.

08

Unverifiable Data

Critical information, such as lease areas, cannot be reliably confirmed against physical reality.

09

2D Can't Reveal Risks

Flat drawings cannot identify or highlight the problems and risks that exist in real buildings. Capturing a building in its existing state with 3D data allows these risks to be assessed and managed ahead of time.

10

Lack of Experience

One cannot fully understand or experience a building in 2D compared to a digital 3D model.

11

Static Data

2D drawings cannot embed or extract data for wider reporting and facility management needs.
