Reasons to Use 3D Laser Scanning for MEP As-Built Documentation

Millimeter‑Level Accuracy: Terrestrial laser scanning and LiDAR technology deliver ±2–4mm accuracy, eliminating measurement errors that cost contractors an average of $5,000–$50,000 per conflict. High‑resolution point clouds provide 360° dimensions of pipe diameters, conduit runs, duct dimensions, and equipment clearances with unprecedented detail.

Reduced Field Time & Project Duration: Comprehensive MEP documentation is completed in 70% less time compared to traditional manual methods. A typical 50,000‑square‑foot facility can be 3D laser scanned in one day versus 2–3 weeks of manual measurement, accelerating project schedules and significantly reducing labor costs.

Advanced Clash Detection & Coordination: Spatial conflicts between MEP systems, structural elements, and architectural features are identified before fabrication. 3D BIM models enable design planning in a virtual environment, preventing costly field modifications that average $2,000–$10,000 per clash.

Cost Reduction: Accurate as‑built data minimizes change orders, rework, and material waste. Projects using 3D laser scanning report 50% fewer change orders and overall cost savings of 5–15%.

Comprehensive CAD & BIM Integration: Scan data is seamlessly integrated into Revit, AutoCAD, and other CAD and BIM platforms. The GPRS Mapping and Modeling Team delivers precise CAD drawings and 3D BIM models tailored to project standards, templates, and naming conventions, ensuring consistency and accuracy across every deliverable.

Ongoing Facility Management: A permanent digital record of the facility’s MEP infrastructure supports lifecycle management. Point cloud data and BIM models enable preventive maintenance, system upgrades, space planning, energy analysis, and regulatory compliance throughout the building’s operational life.

MEP 3D Laser Scanning Applications & Use Cases


New Construction & Build Outs: 3D laser scanning provides precise as built data that ensures MEP systems are designed and installed to fit seamlessly within new construction layouts.

Renovation & Retrofit Projects: Scanning captures existing conditions to guide accurate MEP upgrades, minimizing clashes and rework during retrofits.

Facility Management & Operations: Detailed BIM models from scans support ongoing MEP maintenance, system monitoring, and future modifications with confidence.

Industrial & Manufacturing: Millimeter accurate scans enable precise MEP integration in complex production environments, reducing downtime and installation errors.

Data Centers & Tech Facilities: High accuracy scanning ensures MEP systems meet strict tolerances for cooling, power, and IT infrastructure, safeguarding uptime.

Healthcare & Pharmaceutical: Scanning delivers verified CAD and BIM models that support compliant MEP installations in regulated environments where precision is critical.

"[The Technician] did a good job of getting up to speed and working with little or no direction, which helped us concentrate on our other needs on site."

Steve H.

Project Manager

"The scan helped tremendously and has saved us quite a bit of time and trouble."

Gene A.

Mechanical Integrity Engineer

"Thanks for jumping into this assignment so quickly. What a great and productive trip. You guys work tirelessly, non-stop with all aspects of the set-up and execution. Your ability to master the technology is a game changer for us."

Executive Vice President, Director of Architecture, Engineering & Technology

"We have been very pleased with the results of the scanning process. The product has been very useful. And has certainly helped in the development of the project. I would certainly use GPRS again on future projects."

John G.

President & Principal Architect

"Our disciplines have been utilizing the Point Cloud and TruView information and it has been of value. We have discovered a few clashes with our structural steel, which may not have ever been caught, so I feel the service has already paid for itself."
