Studio partner network

Do your best work on real industrial projects.

Studio is the partner network for AsBuilt 3D and Acensium. We recruit laser scanning crews and scan partners in the field, plus the modelers, drafters and engineers who turn their scans into deliverables, for plants, mines, hospitals and campuses across the US.

Field crews and onshore and offshore production teams welcome. Every applicant completes an evaluation project.

02 / What we do

From field capture to engineered design.

Partners take on work at every stage: scan partners capture sites in the field, and production teams model, draft and engineer from those scans. Each job arrives with a defined scope, reference files and a clear list of deliverables.
