Why teams in Anaheim choose GDS
At a glance
Typical experience without precision scanning
- Extra site visits and rushed field checks
- Lots of RFIs and coordination surprises
- Install night stress and late changes
- Costly rework and change orders
What you get with GDS on your next project
- Clean as built data for design and coordination, intended to support better planning and clash checks
- Data that can support fewer site visits and clearer scopes
- Models and drawings prepared for use with your tools
- Information that helps support faster decisions with fewer surprises
Impact for your team and your client
- Support for a more defensible schedule and reduced risk of delays
- Information that supports better budget control and helps reduce waste
- Support for better client confidence and fewer scope misunderstandings
Schedule you can defend
Field work is planned around outages and access windows and supported by coverage checks so your team can better explain how the schedule was built and reduce the risk of surprise site visits or redraws.
Supports first time right fabrication
Models are aligned to documented as built conditions to support prefabrication and installation, and to help reduce fit up corrections, RFIs, and night of install stress. Final design decisions, tolerances, and acceptance remain with your engineering and construction teams.
Data that travels well
Point clouds and models are prepared for use in Revit, Navisworks, CAD, and visualization tools, with clear layer naming and import notes to help your teamwork from a consistent data source. Actual behavior depends on your software versions, settings, and downstream workflows.
A partner in the loop
From early scoping through final coordination we stay available to answer questions, review constraints, and help your project team get unstuck fast rather than just deliver a file and disappear.
The GDS Guarantee
Every project is covered by the GDS Guarantee for our scanning and modeling deliverables.
Core services
Value and benefits
Support for fewer site revisits
Coverage plans and control checks help reduce the need for return trips and help limit schedule slips.
Support for faster decisions
Clean models are prepared to import efficiently so teams can compare options and issue packages sooner, subject to your internal review and approval processes.
Support for lower total cost
Interoperable deliverables and QA are intended to help reduce rework, change orders, and idle time. Actual cost outcomes depend on your broader project decisions and conditions.

What teams say about working with GDS
Frequently asked questions
Which Anaheim projects benefit the most
Renovations tenant improvements venue upgrades plant changes and precision part replacements.
How accurate are the scans and models
Scan and model accuracies can range from thousandths of an inch to approximately one- and one-half inches, depending on requirements. These accurate figures are internal quality targets for our measurement and modeling services and do not replace engineering tolerances.
Which deliverables do you provide
E57 RCP Revit STEP IGES STL OBJ FBX PDF and DWG plus import notes.
Do you align to our site control or plant north
Yes. We confirm control before field work and deliver alignment notes.
Do you work nights or outages
Yes. We schedule around windows outages and hot work limits.
How fast can you deliver
For some scopes we can offer rush delivery in roughly 24 to 72 hours, depending on scope, format, and resource availability. Exact timing will be confirmed in your written quote.
Do you support DIY capture
We offer consulting coverage checks registration rescue and imports.
Can you reverse engineer parts without drawings
Yes. We can deliver parametric or surface CAD with validation and drawings for your review. You remain responsible for design approval, engineering sign off, and any regulatory compliance.
Will you sign an NDA
Yes. We maintain controlled access and versioned backups.
