Request BIMIT from your own scan

Turn point-cloud scan data you already have into a verified BIM model by ordering BIMIT — upload your scan, choose scope and deliverables, and pay the deposit.

Already have scan data for your building? BIMIT turns a point cloud you already own — from your own laser scanner, a reality-capture provider, or a previous IPX scan — into a verified, as-built Revit model. There's no field visit: you upload the scan, choose your scope and deliverables, and our team does the modeling.

BIMIT is ordered through the same wizard as a SCANIT scan — Scope → Team → Review → Pay — with one key difference: you upload your point cloud instead of scheduling a site scan.

Before you start

  • You need to be an organization admin (or have order permission).
  • Have your point cloud file ready — the registered scan data for the building.
  • You can order for an existing location or add a new one in the wizard.

Placing the order

1

Open the order wizard

In the left sidebar, under Services, click Get verified as-builts to open the order wizard at Step 1 — Scope.

2

Switch the service type to BIMIT

At the top of the Scope step, change the service type to BIMIT. The wizard updates to the BIMIT flow — the on-site scanning options are removed and an Upload Point Cloud step appears in their place.

Upload your point cloud

Upload your registered scan data. BIMIT accepts .e57, .xyz, .las, and .laz files, up to the point cloud limit for the setting you order (see Scan and model limits). Drag and drop, or click to browse. You can also import a MatterPak straight from your Matterport account; imports from FARO Sphere XG, NavVis, Cintoo, OpenSpace, and Prevu3D are coming soon. A point cloud is required for a BIMIT order — it's the scan data we model from.

Set scope and deliverables

Pick your location, building levels, and square footage, then choose your scopes and deliverables. Architecture is required and included by default (LOD 300 — walls, floors, ceilings, doors, windows, stairs); add Furniture or MEPF as needed, plus exterior and site scope. Under deliverables, pick your Revit version, point cloud, and floor plans. Everything except the on-site scan matches a SCANIT order — see How to Order a SCANIT Scan for the full breakdown. Your itemized estimate updates live as you choose.

Review, sign, and pay

Optionally invite teammates on Step 2 — Team, then on Step 3 — Review check the summary and sign the Service Authorization Form. On Step 4 — Pay, pay the 50% deposit. You'll see an Order Confirmed screen when it's done.

How BIMIT differs from a SCANIT scan

  • No field scan. You provide the scan data, so there's no on-site visit to schedule.
  • Point cloud upload is required. The order can't proceed without it.
  • No Site Survey Control add-on. That on-site service doesn't apply to BIMIT.
  • Everything else is the same — scope, deliverables, the Revit version selector, the instant estimate, the 50% deposit, and the authorization form all work exactly as they do for SCANIT.
