Scan to BIM services
Farrimond MacManus provides precise and efficient Scan to BIM solutions, transforming 3D laser scan survey data into intelligent, data-rich Building Information Models. These models support architecture, engineering, and construction teams throughout the design and build process. We can provide this across Northern Ireland and Ireland.
What is Scan to BIM?
Scan to BIM involves capturing existing building conditions using 3D laser scanning and converting that data into a Building Information Model (BIM). This model enables collaboration, planning, and management across the full lifecycle of a building—whether it’s new construction, renovation, or retrofit.
Seamless integration with BIM workflows
-
3D laser scans are fully compatible with industry-standard BIM software
-
Survey data is captured with millimetre accuracy
-
The result is a robust, highly detailed model that enhances project planning and coordination
Client-focused approach
Each project begins with a tailored survey strategy to capture the right level of data. We work closely with clients to:
-
Define the required Level of Detail (LOD) and Level of Information (LOI)
-
Agree on modelling tolerances and BIM family standards
-
Ensure parametric modelling meets project-specific needs
The result is a model that meets both technical and design expectations.
