Built from real engineering problems—not marketing ideas
AsBuilt was created to solve a problem engineers face every day: making critical decisions with incomplete or outdated information.
From engineering reality to AsBuilt
AsBuilt is a division of Acensium, LLC, a mechanical engineering firm founded in 2003 by Jason Schwartz and Jason Adkins. Acensium built its reputation solving complex bulk material handling and industrial retrofit challenges—projects where accuracy, safety, and constructability are non-negotiable.
Early on, the Acensium team encountered a recurring problem: retrofit projects were being designed and executed using drawings that no longer reflected reality. Assumptions replaced facts. Field conditions didn’t match documentation. Errors showed up late, when they were most expensive to fix.
To solve this internally, Acensium developed a robust 3D laser scanning and reality capture workflow—initially as a way to protect its own engineering outcomes. That workflow quickly proved invaluable. Clients began requesting the same capability for their projects.
AsBuilt was created to meet that demand.
No drawings. No problem.
AsBuilt exists to give engineers, owners, and project leaders a dependable digital baseline—one that reflects how facilities actually exist today.
Traditional drawings often lag behind reality. In active facilities, systems are modified, equipment is relocated, and temporary changes become permanent. Over time, documentation drifts further from truth.
AsBuilt replaces assumption-driven workflows with field-verified reality capture, modeling, and coordination, enabling teams to plan, design, and execute with confidence instead of guesswork.
Our goal is simple: Help teams make decisions earlier, reduce rework, and execute projects with fewer surprises.
Built by engineers, for engineers
AsBuilt isn’t a scanning company that learned engineering later. It’s an engineering-led organization that adopted scanning because accuracy demanded it.
Our teams understand how data will be used downstream—by engineers, fabricators, construction managers, and operations teams. That perspective shapes everything we deliver, from scan resolution to model structure to documentation standards.
This is why AsBuilt is trusted on high-risk, operational, and regulated sites where errors aren’t just inconvenient—they’re costly or dangerous.

What We Believe
Our Mission
To empower project leaders with reliable, field-verified data so retrofit and modification projects can be executed with confidence.
Our Vision
A future where reliance on outdated drawings is obsolete—and 3D visualization becomes the standard foundation for every industrial project.
We do this work differently
AsBuilt is not a side operation or a scanning vendor. We’re engineers who use reality capture to solve real planning, coordination, and execution problems.
Our work is designed around how data will actually be used—by engineers, owners, and builders making high-stakes decisions.
Engineering-backed execution
Our teams bring Acensium’s engineering background into every project. We understand how scan data turns into design decisions, coordination outcomes, and buildable solutions—not just visual deliverables.
Designed to reduce downstream risk
Most project risk comes from assumptions made early. Our approach replaces assumptions with verified data structured for real decisions—reducing coordination issues, late changes, and surprises during execution.
Accuracy you can act on
Our deliverables are field-verified, validated, and structured for downstream use. The goal isn’t just accuracy—it’s confidence to move forward without second-guessing the data.
Compliance and accountability built in
Safety, documentation standards, and validation aren’t added later—they’re built into our process from day one. What we deliver stands up to reviews, audits, and real-world scrutiny.
Who we are
Experienced professionals committed to precision and reliability.
