Getting the most out of point-cloud jobsite scans is a perennial issue, and Bechtel is looking to a small startup for answers. The contractor has announced that it will be using point-cloud analysis software from Oakland, Calif.-based SKUR, which can rapidly compare scanned site data against a project’s entire BIM documentation.
“The SKUR As-Built Data Platform identifies potential, relevant variance issues early in the process,” said Bechtel CIO David Wilson in a press statement. Bechtel plans to use the software in its oil-and-gas operations and other industrial projects.
