MEP Documentation Services
At DCMS, we capture the exact layout and location of MEP/FP systems using 3D laser scanning, BIM modeling, and Matterport Pro3 walkthroughs. Our deliverables include 2D CAD drawings, 3D Revit models, and immersive visual documentation that empower engineers, contractors, and facility managers to plan, install, and validate with confidence. From system retrofits to full-scale coordination, we provide fast, clash-ready MEP documentation that gets it right the first time.
Precision MEPAs-Builts with Full Visual Context
MEP/FP as-built documentation for HVAC, plumbing, fire protection
3D Revit models optimized for coordination, fabrication & BIM
2D plans, RCPs, risers, and system schematics
Clash detection-ready datasets, matterport Pro3 virtual tours with site annotations
Rapid delivery — even in active construction or occupied sites
By combining LiDAR scans with Matterport Pro3 visual tours, we deliver complete spatial intelligence — enabling remote collaboration, faster field verification, and reduced site visits.
Our hybrid MEP survey workflow is trusted by top AEC firms for its clarity, speed, and reliability.

Frequently asked questions
-
What is 3D scanning?3D scanning is a process of capturing three-dimensional data from an object using specialized equipment. The resulting point cloud data can be used to create highly accurate three-dimensional models of the object.
-
How is 3D scanning used for as-builts?3D scanning can be used to quickly and accurately capture existing conditions on a construction site. This data can then be used to create as-built drawings and models that can be used for future reference.
-
What are the benefits of using 3D scanning for as-builts?There are many benefits to using 3D scanning for as-builts, including the ability to create highly accurate documentation, capture data more quickly than traditional methods, and avoid disruptions to construction activities.
-
How much does 3D scanning cost?The cost of 3D scanning services can vary depending on the size and complexity of the project. However, in general, 3D scanning is more cost-effective than traditional methods of collecting as-built data.
-
How long does it take to scan a project?The time required to scan a project depends on the size and complexity of the project. However, in general, 3D scanning can be completed much more quickly than traditional methods of collecting as-built data.
-
How is the data collected?3D scanning services use specialized equipment to capture three-dimensional data from an object. This data is then converted into a point cloud that can be used to create highly accurate three-dimensional models.
-
What type of equipment is used for 3D scanning?There are many different types of equipment that can be used for 3D scanning. The type of equipment that is best suited for your project will depend on the size and complexity of the project.
-
How is the data processed?After the data is collected, it is converted into a point cloud that can be used to create highly accurate three-dimensional models. These models can then be used for future reference.
-
How long does it take to process the data?The time required to process the data depends on the size and complexity of the project. However, in general, 3D scanning can be completed much more quickly than traditional methods of collecting as-built data.
-
What are the deliverables?The final product of a 3D scanning project is a highly accurate three-dimensional model that can be used for future reference. This model can be used to create as-built drawings and documentation.
