An Accurate As-Built Record of Your Facility
Drawings drift from reality the moment a plant is commissioned. We laser scan your facility exactly as it stands today and deliver a precise as-built model — so upgrades, retrofits, and shutdowns are planned from fact, not decades-old prints.
Where 3D scanning pays off in plants & facilities
Upgrades & expansions
Plan new equipment and line expansions inside an exact model of the existing space, so everything fits the first time.
Retrofits & tie-ins
Capture the surrounding structure and piping precisely so new runs and connections drop in cleanly.
Shutdown & turnaround planning
Scan ahead of limited downtime so crews arrive knowing exactly what they will face.
Digital twins & as-builts
A living digital record of the plant that stays accurate long after the drawings would have gone stale.
What you walk away with
Registered point cloud
A complete, measurable capture of your site you can return to any time.
As-built CAD models
Clean models your design and fabrication teams can work in directly.
3D building & plant models
Full models architects, pipefitters, and electricians can coordinate around.
Clash detection
Catch conflicts on screen before they cost you on the floor.
How a scan project works
On-site scan
We bring professional laser scanners to your facility and capture the piping, steel and equipment inside the agreed scan area.
Register & process
We stitch the scans into one accurate, measurable point cloud.
Model & deliver
We turn the data into the CAD or building model your project needs.
Why facilities trust Creative GOAT for as-built work
Plant documentation degrades quietly. A pipe rerouted during a shutdown, a structural modification added after commissioning, equipment replaced without updating the drawings — over time, the gap between what the drawings show and what is actually in the plant becomes significant enough to cause real problems on the next project.
The cost of that gap shows up at the worst moment: when a new piece of equipment is fabricated to drawings that no longer match reality, when a contractor arrives on-site to find the tie-in point has moved, or when a retrofit is planned from dimensions that are a decade out of date. A current, measured record of your facility reduces how much you have to rely on drawings nobody has checked.
Our portable laser scanning equipment captures industrial plants non-disruptively — we work around your production schedule, scan during off-shifts or turnarounds, and deliver results without requiring a facility shutdown. The result is a registered point cloud and as-built model that reflects the actual state of your facility, not a historical record of what it was supposed to be.
We serve process plants, warehouses, water treatment facilities, and infrastructure sites across Canada and the United States. Our clients use the as-built data we deliver for expansion planning, capital project design, facilities management, and insurance documentation. Because the data is measured — not estimated or manually drafted — it holds up under technical review.
When you need accurate documentation of an existing facility or environment, Creative GOAT provides it quickly, reliably, and without disrupting your operations.
