Core services across Texas

Why teams in Texas choose GDS

Statewide field coverage

From Houston to Dallas and beyond, our teams mobilize across Texas without requiring you to coordinate multiple vendors.

Energy & petrochemical experience

Texas refinery, plant, and petrochemical operations require specialized capture and turnaround scheduling protocols. We bring that experience to every project.

Industrial & manufacturing ready

Experience supporting manufacturing and industrial operations - facility documentation, legacy part recreation, and reverse engineering for demanding environments.

Data that travels well

Point clouds and models prepared for Revit, Navisworks, AutoCAD, and visualization tools - with clear layer naming and import notes.

Schedule you can defend

Field work planned around outages and access windows so your team can better explain how the schedule was built.

The GDS Guarantee

Every project is covered by the GDS Guarantee for our scanning and modeling deliverables.

Industries we serve in Texas

Energy & petrochemical

Refinery, plant, and processing facility documentation with turnaround and shutdown scheduling experience across Texas.

Oil & gas

Terminal, pipeline, and processing equipment captured to support retrofit, coordination, and planning.

Aerospace & defense

Hangar, tooling, and facility documentation for Texas aerospace, aviation, and defense operations.

Data centers & technology

As-built capture of MEP-dense data center, technology, and mission-critical facilities for expansion and coordination.

Advanced manufacturing

Engineering geometry recovery, fixture documentation, and reverse engineering for Texas manufacturers.

Construction & infrastructure

As-built surveys, clash detection support, and existing-condition capture for projects across Texas.

Example projects in Texas

Houston

Energy facility existing-condition documentation

Facility capture delivered as point cloud and coordination model to support retrofit planning and equipment replacement decisions.

Dallas

Industrial plant reverse engineering

Recreating legacy components into usable engineering geometry to support fabrication of replacement parts and downstream manufacturing.

San Antonio

Brownfield modernization capture

Industrial facility scanned and modeled to give the modernization team field-verified existing conditions before retrofit design and fabrication.

Frequently asked questions

Which Texas cities do you cover most frequently?

We most frequently work in %M% - plus mid-size cities and industrial project sites across the state. Select any city above to explore local services.

Does GDS handle reverse engineering work in Texas?

Yes. Reverse engineering - legacy component recreation, design recovery, CAD reconstruction, and fabrication support - is a core part of our Texas work, particularly for energy, manufacturing, and industrial clients.

Do you work on energy, oil & gas, and petrochemical projects in Texas?

Yes. Energy, oil & gas, petrochemical, and industrial facility work is a major part of our Texas portfolio. We have experience working around turnaround and shutdown schedules.

How quickly can you mobilize to a Texas project site?

Standard mobilization is typically within 5 to 10 business days after scope confirmation. For urgent projects we can often accelerate. Call us to discuss your timeline.

What deliverables does GDS provide for Texas projects?

Deliverables are tailored to each client's software environment and intended use - including point clouds, Revit BIM models, AutoCAD as-builts, STEP and IGES files, fabrication-ready geometry, and 3D PDFs. Format is confirmed before fieldwork begins.

Does GDS sign NDAs for Texas projects?

Yes. We are NDA-friendly and sign mutual confidentiality agreements for energy, petrochemical, industrial, and manufacturing projects, so sensitive data stays protected.

Can GDS work nights, weekends, or during plant outages in Texas?

Yes. GDS schedules fieldwork around planned outages, turnarounds, access windows, and restricted periods - common requirements at Texas energy and industrial facilities.

Can GDS support multi-site projects across Texas?

Yes. GDS coordinates multi-site programs with consistent standards and a single point of contact - common for clients with distributed plants, pipelines, or multi-facility operations across Texas.
