Precision 3D Laser Scanning for Seamless Design and Construction

DECCO’s advanced 3D laser scanning technology delivers precise as-built conditions for seamless integration into design and construction workflows. By capturing accurate data, we provide comprehensive solutions such as prefabrication, clash detection, and virtual design modeling, ensuring a perfect fit for your facility.

Innovation Through Advanced Technology

An innovation leader since 1934, DECCO captures precise measurements by utilizing high-speed, state-of-the-art 3D laser scanning technology that delivers reliable geospatial information. Our LiDAR (light detection and ranging) technology enables us to provide 3D scanned models and point clouds that integrate piping models and skidded systems into “virtual” client spaces, supporting building information models (BIM) with unparalleled accuracy. Whether offered as a stand-alone service or integrated with our construction processes, DECCO’s cutting-edge solutions help streamline installation, reduce costs, and shorten project timelines. Our technology enables us to produce accurate pre-fabrication packages that minimize installation costs and reduce overall schedule duration.

Comprehensive Virtual Design Solutions

Our team works with you to understand your project needs and deliver innovative, customized solutions using next-generation technology. We transform raw scan data into actionable intelligence that drives more efficient project execution and better outcomes for your facility.
The precision of our 3D laser scanning eliminates guesswork from the design and construction process. By creating detailed digital twins of your existing facilities, we provide the foundation for informed decision-making throughout every phase of your project. This approach significantly reduces the risk of costly field modifications and ensures that new installations integrate seamlessly with existing infrastructure.
