From 3D scan to decision: two tracks, one goal

ScanPlan works as a parallel track alongside your existing BIM process. No replacement, no disruption — a separate data stream that converges with your current workflow at the point that matters most: efficient, well-informed building management.

The ScanPlan AI track

Everything starts with the scan. Using the NavVis VLX3, we capture your building or portfolio with millimetre precision. That scan data forms the basis of an iterative process:

  • Annotation — the relevant objects in the scan data are labelled: fire doors, installations, FM objects, escape routes — whatever matters to your organisation.

  • AI training — based on the annotations, we train models that automatically recognise these objects, including in new scans or other locations within your portfolio.

  • AI configuration — the trained models are configured in the viewer and connected to your facility management systems (Image/LLM integrations where applicable).

  • Viewer — your team works from a clear environment in which the AI insights are immediately visible and actionable.

The model improves continuously: every new scan refines the recognition. The longer ScanPlan runs on your portfolio, the sharper the output.

Your existing BIM process

At the same time, your familiar BIM workflow continues uninterrupted: from design model to construction, to as-is situation and configuration. ScanPlan does not touch this track — it enriches it.

Scan data can be used directly to keep your as-built BIM model current. Your BIM process benefits from the accuracy of the scan, without changing any workflows or software.

Convergence at management level

Both tracks converge at the shared goal: management. The AI insights from the ScanPlan track and the BIM data from your existing workflow together form a current, reliable foundation for facility management, maintenance, inspection and compliance.

No data to look at. Data to act on.

What does ScanPlan deliver in practice?

We train AI models on the objects and fit-out that matter to your organisation. Each model produces directly usable, connectable output.

1. Facility Management

Automatic recognition of FM objects, room layouts and occupancy — always up to date, no more manual walkthroughs of the building. Output: work order in your FMIS

2. Maintenance & inspection

Wear, deviations and maintenance items are recognised and documented based on the scan. No more clipboard, no more disputes about what is actually there. Output: inspection report + maintenance schedule

3. Fire safety

Fire doors, escape routes and safety installations are automatically classified and checked against the current situation in the building. Output: compliance report + list of deviations

4. Installation management

Pipes, technical rooms and installation components mapped out — including in complex, layered building situations where the drawings have not been accurate for years. Output: current installation status

5. BIM enrichment

Scan-as-built data connected to your BIM model, so the model continues to reflect reality — even after renovations, modifications and additions. Output: updated BIM model

6. Custom

Does your organisation have a specific application in mind that is not listed here? We train a model on the objects and situations that matter to you.

Which organisations does this work for?

ScanPlan works for any organisation that manages buildings at scale. We are active in four sectors. 

01

Real estate & housing associations

Large residential portfolios, energy labels, condition surveys and maintenance at scale — ScanPlan makes it manageable, controllable and reproducible.

02

Utility buildings

Airports, hospitals, terminals, distribution centres — complex objects where up-to-date data makes the difference between a sound decision and a costly one.

03

Central government & defence

Large, sensitive real estate portfolios with high demands on security, compliance and data handling. We understand the context and are happy to work within the frameworks your organisation requires.

04

Industry

Factories, production halls, drilling platforms — locations where every minute of downtime costs money, where processes and machinery are complex and where efficient use of space is critical.

We make scale manageable.

From a single floor to a portfolio of hundreds of buildings — ScanPlan always delivers data your team can act on the very next day.

How it works

From scan to decision — we handle the rest

No missing as-built drawings. No data buried on a hard drive somewhere. No outdated models sitting on a single computer on the third floor. Just insights that translate directly into a work order, an inspection report or a maintenance decision.

Step 01

3D scan on location

We capture your building or portfolio with millimetre precision using a 3D scanner — from a single floor to an entire complex, in a fraction of the time manual surveying requires. Or we use 3D scanning data you already have available.

Step 02

Custom AI models

We train models on your specific fit-out: fire doors, installations, FM objects — the objects that matter to your organisation. No generic output, but data that aligns with your processes.

Step 03

Actionable insight

The AI models are continuously refined to your situation: the more the models learn from your buildings and fit-out, the more precise the output. The result integrates seamlessly with your existing BIM and facility management processes — as a parallel stream that strengthens what is already in place, without disruption.

What do our customers say?

We provide homes across the Netherlands with energy labels. ScanPlan helps us make this process faster, better and more cost-effective using 3D models. This information is far more accurate than manual measurements.

Rodney IJlstra

Director | Klimaatroute

ScanPlan has carried out several scan-to-BIM projects for us. They clearly go a step further than simply converting point clouds into 3D models. They are a strategic partner who thinks along with you and shows real initiative. They adapt their workflows and output to deliver exactly the tailored input you need as a client.

Richard Baan

Operational director | GloBLD

ScanPlan has an enormous amount of knowledge in 3D scanning and modelling. They are highly empathetic and deliver exactly the information you need as a client.
