Challenge
Original plant drawings didn't reflect decades of field modifications, and any model errors risked routing new piping through existing live process lines still in daily operation.

Project Story
Challenge & Solution
How we approached the scan-to-BIM workflow for Process Plant MEP Retrofit.
Solution
We scanned the full plant floor, modeled all existing and proposed MEP and process piping against the point cloud, and validated every new routing path against live production zones before releasing for construction.
