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

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.
