Scan-to-BIM Cost Guide
Understanding the investment required for professional Scan-to-BIM modeling services.
Pricing Overview
LOD 200 (Architecture Only)
Basic architectural geometry, walls, floors, ceilings
LOD 300 (Architecture + Detailed)
Accurate geometry, some MEP systems, coordination-ready
LOD 400 (Full BIM + MEP)
Detailed components, full MEP, fabrication-ready
Minimum Project
Minimum engagement for any Scan-to-BIM project
Key Cost Factors
Level of Development
LOD 100-500 determines modeling detail and dramatically affects cost.
Building Type
Hospitals and data centers cost more than simple office buildings.
MEP Requirements
Full mechanical, electrical, and plumbing adds 50-100% to cost.
Existing Conditions
Renovations with hidden elements require more interpretation.
Standards/Templates
Client-specific Revit standards may add setup time.
Our Verdict
Scan-to-BIM costs are driven by Level of Development (LOD), building complexity, and MEP requirements. Budget $0.15-$0.75+ per square foot for modeling, plus scanning costs. Minimum project: $2,500. The ROI is clear: accurate BIM models prevent costly change orders.
