Digital Twin Services in Los Angeles
Scanned, accurate building models linked to equipment data, so facility teams can find assets, plan work and train staff without walking the building.
Digital Twin Services · Los Angeles
A Searchable Copy of Your Building
A digital twin is an accurate 3D model of a building that is linked to information about it, such as equipment tags, room data, warranties and service records. For facility managers in Los Angeles, it means finding a shutoff valve, checking a panel schedule or measuring a room from a desk instead of sending someone across a campus. We build twins from laser scans and 360 tours, then attach the data your team uses. Depending on your needs, the twin can be a Matterport tour with tagged equipment, a Revit model with asset data, or a full model connected to your maintenance software.
Built Around How Your Team Actually Works
A twin is only useful if your staff open it. Before we scan, we ask who will use it and for what. A building engineer looking for valves needs different tags than a space planner counting desks. We set up naming that matches your existing equipment lists, link to the documents you already keep and train your staff on the viewer. For buildings still under construction, the 360° documentation from the build can become part of the twin, so in-wall conditions are preserved.

When a Digital Twin Pays Off
Owners and facility teams usually start a twin for one of these reasons.
Large or spread-out campuses
Universities, hospitals, studio lots and corporate campuses have too many buildings for one person to know. A twin lets staff find rooms and equipment without walking each site.
Staff turnover
When the engineer who knew where everything was retires, that knowledge leaves with them. A tagged twin keeps it for the next person.
Planning renovations and moves
Space planners and designers can measure rooms and check ceiling heights from the twin, which cuts down on site visits before each project.
Emergency response
During a leak, a fire alarm or a power event, knowing exactly where shutoffs and panels are saves time. Some owners share views of the twin with first responders.
Portfolio management
Owners with buildings across LA can compare spaces, track leases and plan capital work from one place, using accurate floor areas.

How We Work
Every project follows the same basic path from the first call to the files on your server:
1. Plan the twin
We meet with your facility team to decide what to capture, what to tag and which software it needs to work with.
2. Capture the buildings
We laser scan and capture 360 tours of each building, including mechanical rooms, roofs and ceilings where accessible.
3. Tag, link and train
Equipment and rooms are tagged and linked to your data. We hand over the twin and train your staff to use and update it.
Parts of a Facility Digital Twin
Tagged 3D tours
A Matterport or similar tour with tags on equipment, panels and valves. It is the fastest twin to build and easy for any staff member to use.
Revit models with asset data
A BIM model with equipment and room data attached, often following COBie fields, for owners who want structured data for maintenance planning.
Integration with maintenance software
Tags and models can link to work order systems and asset registers, so a technician can jump from a work order to the equipment’s location in 3D.
Space and area data
Accurate room areas and floor plans for leasing, space planning and cost allocation, measured from the scan instead of old drawings.
Updates over time
Buildings change. We can rescan areas after renovations and update the twin so it stays accurate.
Cost of Digital Twin Services
A tagged 3D tour of a building usually starts around $0.10 to $0.30 per square foot. A full model with asset data runs higher and depends on detail. What affects price:
- Building size and count. More buildings and floors mean more capture time.
- Type of twin. A tagged tour costs less than a Revit model with structured data.
- Number of tags. Tagging every valve and panel takes more time than tagging major equipment.
- Integration. Linking to your maintenance software adds setup work.
- Access. Secure areas, roofs and plenums take longer to capture.
- Updates. Ongoing rescans and updates can be priced as an annual plan.
Share your building list and goals, and we will price a twin to match.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a 3D model and a digital twin?
A 3D model shows the shape of the building. A digital twin connects that model to data, such as equipment details, documents and service history, so staff can search and act on it.
Do we need new software to use a twin?
Often no. Tours open in a web browser, and Revit models can work with software you already use. We fit the twin to your current tools where possible.
How long does a twin stay accurate?
It stays accurate until the building changes. We recommend updating areas after renovations or equipment replacements.
Can a twin help with emergency planning?
Yes. Tagging shutoffs, panels, fire equipment and exits makes them easy to find during an emergency, and views can be shared with the people who need them.
Can you start with one building?
Yes. Many owners test a twin on one building, see how staff use it and then add the rest of the portfolio.
Who owns the data?
You do. We deliver all models, point clouds and tour files to you, and hosted tours can be moved to your own account.
Is building data kept secure?
Tours and models can be shared privately and limited to named users. For sensitive sites, we can deliver files directly to your servers with nothing hosted publicly.
