Scan-to-CAD Floor Plan Production Across a 51-Property Industrial & Business Park Portfolio

Project Overview

Project Name: Multi-Property Scan-to-CAD Floor Plan Production

Discipline: CAD Drafting / Scan-to-CAD Documentation

Deliverable: Completed floor plan CAD files for each property, matched to the client's CAD template

Input Data: Scan files, imported scan DWG files per suite, onsite reference images, client CAD template

eLogicTech delivered Scan-to-CAD floor plan production for a US-based commercial real estate portfolio spanning 51 industrial and business park properties across multiple regions. The engagement covered floor plan development for every suite across the portfolio — totaling roughly 8.45 million square feet — built from scan data and onsite imagery to match the client's existing CAD documentation standard exactly.

Challenge:

Portfolio-wide floor plan documentation at this scale creates a production and consistency problem more than a technical one. Every property arrives with its own scan dataset and onsite images, but the output has to look and behave like it came from a single, unified drawing standard — regardless of which suite, which property, or which region it came from.

Key project challenges included:

• 51 properties across multiple US regions needed floor plans developed from scan files and onsite images, each matched precisely to the client's existing CAD template
• Property sizes varied enormously — from under 28,000 sq ft to over 448,000 sq ft — requiring a workflow that held the same accuracy and formatting standard regardless of scale
• Imported scan DWG files were provided per suite rather than per property, requiring careful assembly and cross-referencing before floor plans could be finalized
• Exterior elevations were explicitly excluded from scope, requiring disciplined scope control to keep production focused on floor plan accuracy without drift into adjacent deliverables

Scope of Services

eLogicTech's scope was defined and delivered in three coordinated areas across the full 51-property portfolio.

Task 1 — Scan Data & Reference Assembly

• Received and organized scan files and pre-imported scan DWG files for each suite, property by property
• Cross-referenced onsite images against scan data to confirm as-built conditions ahead of drafting

Task 2 — Floor Plan Development

• Developed CAD floor plans for every suite based on scan files and onsite images
• Matched each floor plan precisely to the client's provided CAD template — layers, formatting, and drawing standards held consistent across all 51 properties

Task 3 — Scope & Quality Control

• Maintained strict scope discipline, excluding exterior elevations per the agreed scope of work
• Delivered completed floor plan CAD files on a rolling, batch basis across the property list

Technologies & Platforms:

Production Approach

A batch-based production workflow was used to move consistently through the portfolio without compromising template accuracy on any single property.

Phase 1 — Template & Standards Review

• Client's CAD template reviewed in full to lock down layer structure, formatting, and drawing conventions before production began

Phase 2 — Scan & Image Cross-Referencing

• Scan files and onsite images reviewed per suite to confirm as-built conditions ahead of drafting

Phase 3 — Floor Plan Drafting

• Floor plans developed suite by suite, property by property, held to the client template throughout

Phase 4 — Delivery in Batches

• Completed floor plan CAD files delivered on a rolling basis as each property batch was finalized

Deliverables

• Completed floor plan CAD files for all 51 properties, totaling approximately 8.45 million sq ft
• Every floor plan matched to the client's CAD template for drawing consistency across the full portfolio
• Scope held cleanly to floor plans only, with exterior elevations excluded as agreed

Why eLogicTech

With over 25 years of delivering architectural BIM services to practices across North America, Australia, and the Middle East, eLogicTech understands the specific production demands of prototype rollout work. QSR and multi-site rollout projects require a BIM team that can absorb a prototype standard quickly, manage site-specific variables without disrupting the broader drawing package, and handle conditional scope items with discipline. Our architectural team is structured to function as a seamless extension of the architect’s own production capacity — freeing their senior staff for design and coordination while we handle the documentation output.
