Why Facility Managers Need Accurate Floor Plans — and How 3D Scanning Delivers Them
Managing a building without accurate floor plans is like navigating without a map. For facility managers responsible for maintenance schedules, renovation planning, and space management, outdated or missing documentation creates real risk. Accurate floor plans for facility managers are not just a convenience — they’re the foundation every reliable decision gets built on. At The…

Accurate by Design: Elevator Shaft Laser Scanning at OSF SEMC Peru
Elevator shafts don’t leave much room for error. For ADG’s work at OSF SEMC Peru, the team needed accurate documentation of the shaft and its surrounding features before planning could begin. TWG deployed the Leica RTC360 to capture those existing conditions through elevator shaft laser scanning — and delivered a coordinated Revit model ADG could…
