BIM Service
★ Scan + Model Under One Roof
BIM Services Dubai.
We own the scanners. We employ the modelers. No subcontractors between the laser and the Revit model. Architectural, structural, and MEP BIM from LOD 100 to 500 — with the only company in Dubai that captures scan data and builds intelligent models under one roof.

BIM Disciplines
Every discipline. Every LOD.
From conceptual massing to as-built facility management handover — our in-house Revit team delivers intelligent BIM models across all three core disciplines.
Architectural BIM
Walls, floors, ceilings, doors, windows, curtain walls, stairs, roofs, and site elements modeled in Revit with material specifications, room data, and area schedules. LOD 200–500.
Structural BIM
Foundations, columns, beams, slabs, retaining walls, steel connections, and rebar detailing. Structural analysis integration with Etabs, SAP2000, and Robot. LOD 300–500.
MEP BIM
HVAC ductwork, chilled water piping, electrical conduit and tray, fire protection sprinkler systems, plumbing stacks, and drainage. Complete mechanical, electrical, and plumbing coordination.
Clash Detection
Navisworks-based multi-discipline coordination. Identify and resolve conflicts between architectural, structural, and MEP systems before construction — eliminating costly on-site rework.
4D / 5D BIM
4D: construction sequence scheduling linked to model elements for phasing visualization. 5D: quantity takeoff and cost estimation embedded in model data for budget tracking.
Scan-to-BIM
Point cloud captured by our GeoSLAM and Hi-Target scanners → registered in Cyclone/GeoSLAM Connect → modeled in Revit at your specified LOD. One team, one quality standard, zero handoff gaps.
Why Sicher 3D
What separates us from every other BIM company in Dubai.
Most BIM firms subcontract scanning. Most survey firms subcontract modeling. We do both — in-house, under one quality standard, with zero communication gaps.
1
One Roof
Scanning hardware (GeoSLAM, Hi-Target) + Revit modelers in the same office. No subcontractor handoffs.
30-50%
Faster Turnaround
No waiting for third-party scan data delivery. Our modelers start the same day the scan is captured.
±5mm
Scan Accuracy
Sub-centimeter point clouds from GeoSLAM SLAM scanners and Hi-Target total stations. Not photogrammetry approximations.
How It Works
From site to Revit in four steps.
1
Scan
GeoSLAM SLAM scanner or Hi-Target total station captures the existing building as a 3D point cloud. Typically 1 day per 1000 sqm floor plate.
2
Process
Point cloud registered, cleaned, and georeferenced. Delivered as .e57 or .rcp for QA review before modeling begins.
3
Model
In-house Revit team traces the point cloud into intelligent BIM elements at your specified LOD. Arch → Struct → MEP in coordinated sequence.
4
Deliver
Revit (.rvt), IFC, Navisworks (.nwc/.nwd), COBie, AutoCAD (.dwg), PDF sheets. Clash report included if multi-discipline.
Level of Development
LOD 100 to 500. You choose.
We deliver exactly the level of information your project stage requires — no over-modeling that inflates cost, no under-modeling that fails permit review.
| LOD | Stage | What's Included | Use Case |
|---|---|---|---|
| LOD 100 | Conceptual | Massing volumes, floor areas, building footprint | Feasibility, early design |
| LOD 200 | Design Development | Approximate geometry, generic systems | Schematic design review |
| LOD 300 | Construction Docs | Accurate geometry, specific materials, dimensions | Dubai Municipality permit |
| LOD 350 | Coordination | LOD 300 + connections, supports, clash zones | Multi-discipline coordination |
| LOD 400 | Fabrication | Exact geometry, manufacturer data, installation detail | Shop drawings, prefab |
| LOD 500 | As-Built / FM | Field-verified geometry, O&M data, asset tags | Facility management handover |

Frequently Asked
Common questions about our BIM services.
What BIM services does Sicher 3D offer in Dubai?
+
Architectural, structural, and MEP BIM modeling. Scan-to-BIM (LOD 100-500). BIM coordination and clash detection via Navisworks. 4D scheduling and 5D cost estimation. As-built BIM documentation. Heritage BIM (HBIM). BIM for facility management. We scan using our own GeoSLAM and Hi-Target hardware and model in-house using Revit, Navisworks, AutoCAD, and Civil 3D.
Why choose Sicher 3D over other BIM companies in Dubai?
+
We own professional scanning hardware (GeoSLAM SLAM scanners, Hi-Target total stations, RTK GNSS) and employ in-house Revit/Navisworks modelers. This eliminates the data quality gaps, communication delays, and coordination errors that occur when most BIM companies subcontract scanning to third-party survey firms. One team, one quality standard, 30-50% faster turnaround.
What is the difference between BIM and 3D modeling?
+
3D modeling creates geometry — the visual shape. BIM creates intelligent models where every element contains embedded data: material properties, manufacturer specs, cost data, installation sequence, and maintenance schedules. A 3D model shows what it looks like. A BIM model knows what it is, what it costs, when it gets installed, and who maintains it.
Does Sicher 3D comply with Dubai Municipality BIM requirements?
+
Yes. Our deliverables comply with Dubai Municipality BIM guidelines, including mandatory BIM submission for projects above 300 sqm. We deliver in Revit (.rvt), IFC (ISO 16739), and COBie formats. Our processes reference ISO 19650 for information management throughout the project lifecycle.
How long does a BIM project take?
+
Depends on scope: a typical 500-1000 sqm floor plate takes 1 day scanning + 3-5 days modeling at LOD 300 (single discipline). Multi-discipline projects with clash detection scale proportionally. Because we scan and model in-house, there is no handoff delay — modelers start the same day the scan is captured.
What LOD levels does Sicher 3D deliver?
+
LOD 100 (conceptual) through LOD 500 (as-built/FM). LOD 200 for design development, LOD 300 for Dubai Municipality permit, LOD 350 for coordination, LOD 400 for fabrication, LOD 500 for facility management handover. We deliver exactly the level your project stage requires.
How much do BIM services cost in Dubai?
+
Pricing depends on project size, discipline scope, LOD requirement, and whether scanning is included. Contact Sicher 3D at sales@sicher-3d.com or +971 50 108 0764 for a project-specific quotation. Competitive rates because we handle both scanning and modeling in-house — no subcontractor markups.
What file formats does Sicher 3D deliver?
+
Revit native (.rvt), IFC (ISO 16739), Navisworks (.nwc/.nwd), AutoCAD (.dwg), COBie spreadsheets, PDF drawing sheets, and point cloud formats (.e57, .rcp). We match your project's BEP (BIM Execution Plan) requirements.
