Mobile Mapping: Transforming Your Day-to-Day Work and Fueling Business Growth

Welcome to the latest edition of our newsletter, where we delve into the revolutionary world of mobile mapping and explore why it's high time to invest in this groundbreaking technology. In this article, we will discuss how mobile mappers can revolutionize your business operations and unlock new possibilities for growth.

Whether you are an independent contractor, part of a laser scanning service firm, or hold an in-house scanning role for a construction firm, mobile mappers offer five compelling reasons to transform your business:

Faster Laser Scanning

Imagine tackling a medium-to-large-sized as-built documentation project, such as a sprawling 50k sqft office building with complex spatial features. Investing in a mobile mapping system can significantly expedite your project timelines. Compared to traditional terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), mobile mappers capture buildings up to 10 times faster. Moreover, while TLS workflows often require two operators, mobile workflows can be completed with just one, freeing up valuable staffing resources for additional projects.

Mobile mapping systems enhance scanning efficiency, enabling you to finish large-scale projects faster with your existing workforce and take on more projects concurrently.

Limiting Downtime

Capturing assets that are actively in use, such as factories, hospitals, offices, construction sites, or parking garages, poses unique challenges for as-built capture workflows. These environments often provide limited windows of downtime for scanning operations.

By employing a mobile scanner, you can minimize disruption to your clients' work by swiftly and efficiently capturing active sites. This capability not only enhances your reputation but also enables you to bid for projects in industries where downtime has historically hindered as-built documentation.

Mobile mapping empowers your business to win projects in industries where disruption is a critical concern, such as healthcare, factories, and more.

Do What You Couldn't Do Before

Mobile mapping technology not only helps you attract new clients but also allows you to diversify your service offerings and deliverables to your existing client base. While CAD or BIM models may be your typical deliverable for as-built documentation projects, mobile mapping opens doors to provide additional value through deliverables like 360° walkthroughs.

These immersive experiences enable stakeholders to explore and understand buildings better, offering enhanced search functionalities, seamless information integration, and improved collaboration. By offering a more comprehensive range of deliverables, you can strengthen customer loyalty and differentiate yourself from competitors.

Mobile mapping enriches customer retention by providing a compelling set of deliverables that surpasses what your competitors offer.

Expand Horizons

Integrating a mobile mapper into your toolkit brings newfound flexibility when negotiating with clients. For instance, if a construction customer seeks to capture accurate as-is conditions for a potential refurbishment project in a relatively straightforward space, cost-consciousness becomes a key factor.

While conventional TLS may exceed their budget, using a mobile mapping workflow allows you to offer the best of both worlds. You can provide a 3D deliverable that surpasses the quality of measurements gathered manually with a disto while remaining more cost-effective than TLS.

Furthermore, with a mobile mapping system, you can configure data accuracy levels and pricing structures to match specific project requirements. This adaptability enables you to cater to cost-sensitive clients, offering different accuracy options tailored to their needs or combining accuracy levels for different spaces within the asset.

Mobile mapping systems offer varying levels of scanning efficiency and data accuracy, allowing you to adjust pricing and deliverables to win over cost-conscious clients.

Get Ahead Of The Curve

By utilizing cutting-edge mobile mapping technology, your business gains a distinct advantage over competitors. It sets you apart right from the project acquisition stage, where your offering stands out as more compelling compared to those relying on conventional methods.

When clients compare your business to competitors with less innovative solutions, the advantages of mobile mapping become apparent. This differentiation significantly increases your chances of securing the deal and winning more customers, propelling your business toward continued growth.

Embracing a tested and pioneering tool like a mobile mapping system helps your business stand out from the competition, attracting more customers and fostering sustainable growth.

In conclusion, the time to invest in mobile mapping has arrived. These cutting-edge tools hold immense potential to transform your day-to-day work, revolutionize your business operations, and drive growth. By leveraging mobile mappers, you can achieve unparalleled scanning efficiency, minimize client disruption, expand service offerings, enhance business flexibility, and ultimately gain a competitive edge.
