LOD 200 · scan & draw

Where This Version Comes From

You gave us a budget. This version is our answer to it.

From the outset you asked for a LOD 200 drawing set. Version 2 captured to LOD 350 in order to deliver it, so that you could uplift to a technical model at any later stage without us returning to site. That optionality carried a real cost, and it accounts for most of the difference between the two versions. Version 3 captures to LOD 200 and draws to LOD 200 — the specification you asked for, delivered directly, with the higher-accuracy work concentrated on the items you nominate rather than spread thinly across the whole site.

The structure has changed as much as the price. Version 2 folded allowances into the package rate. Version 3 strips both packages back to the capture work itself and places everything else in front of you as a separate, capped line, so that you carry only what the site actually turns out to need.

What holds from Version 2

The drawing deliverable is still LOD 200, exactly as specified from the outset.
Matterport remains the capture platform and the strongest visual tool available to this project, chosen at the start for that reason. What changes is the density we capture at — fewer scan positions across the floor plate. The instrument and its LiDAR are unchanged.
The Part 1 and Part 2 split of the programme is unchanged.
The facade wrap is retained, which keeps external GPS control in play and keeps specialist survey attendance out of the picture.

The flexibility in this version comes from scope and programme rather than from price. Because so much of the substance holds, our rates have largely stayed where they were.

1 · Commercial Basis

How this proposal is costed

Version 3 is priced the way we ordinarily price capture work — on time rather than on area. Almost all of our estimating is framed in hours, because hours are what genuinely govern the effort on a site like this one. Version 2 was set out on a square-metre basis to suit the format the enquiry called for. Returning to our usual method gives us a sharper read on the work in front of us, and on this scope it also produces a better number for you.

With the balance of the work now firmly inside the building, and with our team not yet having stood in it, area on its own is a blunt instrument. A reconnaissance visit purely to measure up would spend budget without producing anything you could use, so this estimate is built instead from the drawings, the aerial coverage and our experience of comparable transit sheds.

Why time reads a building like this better

Take two areas of identical size. A block of palletised crates holds no structural elements that need drawing, so it needs coverage and little else. A plant area where several small structural members, services and connections come together occupies a fraction of the floor plate but calls for many more scan positions and a great deal more time on site.

Area cannot tell those two apart. Time can. Across a building of this scale the two effects offset one another and the estimate settles at an effective figure of roughly R11.50 per square metre. We express it that way because it is easy to compare against, while the figure itself comes from the time the work will genuinely take.

Area is still our sense-check

Area has not been set aside. It remains the basis on which the measured scope is described, and the cross-check we run the time estimate against.

The Part 1 and Part 2 split of the programme is unchanged from Version 2.

Where this sits against the market

So that the figures in this proposal could be measured against something real, we obtained current pricing over the past weekend from two enterprise-grade specialists of the kind Version 2 was reaching toward.

Enterprise-grade benchmark	Current market pricing	What it covers
Enterprise mobile-mapping specialist — interior laser scanning	R400,000 / 40,000 m² = R10.00/m²	Scanning only. Mobilisation, ground control survey and registration and processing are quoted separately, taking that portion to R493,000 excluding VAT. Drawings are not part of their offering.
Registered land surveyor — Class A control network	R58,500 excl. VAT	Site establishment, establishment of the control points themselves, and survey processing with certificate.

Why we are showing you this. Neither figure is out of line — that is what best-in-class equipment and registered survey work genuinely cost, and both would carry our management fee in addition. We are not steering you toward either service. We include them because they give the R11.50 per square metre in this proposal a context: that figure covers capture, processing, the LOD 200 drawing set, the virtual tour and the Project Hub, where the enterprise benchmark of R10.00 per square metre covers the scanning alone, before mobilisation, control, processing or any drawing work. This is where the Version 3 approach earns its saving — it delivers what the project actually needs without drawing enterprise specialists into the scope.

2 · Survey

What the survey change means for you

This is the change that carries the most professional weight, and we would rather state it plainly than let it sit in the detail. Control is now established as GPS points tied to the aerial capture, set and flown by a drone pilot rather than by a registered surveyor. No robotic total station work is included inside the building — control is carried inward from the exterior to the nearest high-resolution area, and manual measurement is referenced from that point. The dataset is coordinated and internally consistent, and it is not offered as a certified survey product.

Where you can and cannot interrogate a dimensionVersion 2 would have withstood a technical interrogation of any dimension anywhere on site. Version 3 gives you a coordinated, fully navigable visual record across the whole site, and interrogable accuracy on the specific items you nominate. The distinction matters: within a nominated zone, it is the nominated items that carry the higher accuracy, not every feature inside that zone. If a zone is nominated for structural dimensions, an electrical dimension in the same zone will not have been captured to the same standard, because it was not identified as a requirement. So please give us both — which areas matter, and what specifically within them needs to be measurable.

How we work a nominated item. Higher-density Matterport LiDAR over the area, plus hand measurement taken on the item itself — a vernier where that is the right tool, for instance steel thickness or a column section, and other hand-measurement methods where a vernier is not suitable. The measurement is photographed, the photo is tagged into the twin at that position, and the element is drawn to the measured dimension rather than to the scan.

Your existing survey benchmarks — an offer. We understand surveys have been carried out on this site previously. If you are able to share that information with us, we will coordinate our work directly off it: your benchmarks become our benchmarks, in exactly the positions they already occupy, and our GPS control points will be tied into them at no additional fee. This is the single most valuable thing you can give us — it keeps the entire dataset in the same coordinate world as everything your team has produced to date.

3 · Site Conditions

Working around stored stock

Much of the interior floor carries palletised stock, in places stacked two and three high. Under a full technical capture this would have been a significant obstacle, because every square metre would have needed the same treatment regardless of what was standing on it.

The shift to a visual-led capture turns this into an advantage. Palletised stock is not an asset to be redrawn and is not a point of interest — it is inventory that will have moved long before the model is used. We can therefore treat those areas as coverage rather than detail, which meaningfully reduces the scan count across the floor plate without affecting the quality of anything you actually need drawn.

Two practical points we would like your guidance on before we mobilise: whether we may position the scanner on top of stacked pallets where that is the only way to see over a block of stock, and whether there are any areas where stock is expected to be cleared during our window, which would let us schedule around it.

4 · Retained

What has been protected

These items were reviewed for saving and deliberately kept. Removing any of them would break the technical argument rather than simply reduce the price.

Retained	Why
Facade wrap	The only route to external GPS control without triggering specialist survey attendance.
Aerial LiDAR capture	Covers the open roof pitch at a consistent standard, and supplies the terrain contour that the underground services method depends on. Retained in full across the whole site.
360 virtual tour	Requested by Focus PM and retained in full, as a service distinct from the aerial capture.
Manhole capture	Rates have not been reduced, only itemised. The manhole inspection is the first layer of the underground services method.
Fire-equipment capture	Rates have not been reduced, only itemised. Fire equipment is a primary risk-mitigation record and we regard capturing it as standard practice rather than an optional refinement.
Quayside sonar	Retained at a revised 20 m width across the full 500 m quay length.

The sonar, and why it is in the package. Our teams and equipment are already deployed at the quay for the main capture, so the sonar sweep rides along with work we are doing anyway — which is why it sits inside the package price rather than as a line you weigh up separately. Run later as its own deployment it would need to fund its own mobilisation and would carry a value of R55,000. The deliverable also changes form at the waterline: above it you receive point-cloud data, below it a contour map, built from a sonar unit capturing at high frequency across both a wide and a narrow beam angle. Overlaid on the aerial capture, that gives you the quay levels, the invert down the face and the seabed contour running out across the 20 m section — a first true baseline for depth and for tracking movement of material at the quay face over time.

5 · Programme

Programme and coordination

The shorter time on site is a consequence of the reduced density — we cover considerably more ground per day. Two further points on how we would like to run it:

Date ranges, not fixed dates

Agreeing a window rather than a date lets us draw on additional capture capacity when it is available. It serves both parties and does not extend the overall programme.

Working alongside operations

Unchanged in principle. We will agree the capture requirements for each area with you in advance and sequence our work so that it causes the least possible interference to your operations and to ours.

Travel

At cost, on an unchanged basis. Flights are unaffected; accommodation reduces in line with the shorter programme.

6 · Add-Ons

Top-up options — available on both packages

Top-up	Rate	Notes
Manhole capture	R 850 each	Capped at R17,000. Every manhole beyond that is captured at no additional fee.
Fire-equipment capture	R 375 each	Capped at R15,000. Every item beyond that is captured at no additional fee. Priced above an ordinary asset because fire equipment is critical safety infrastructure.
Nominated high-detail items	R 1,890 / hr	Higher-density LiDAR plus hand measurement on the item, photo-tagged and drawn to the measured dimension. Half-day minimum applies.
On-site capture day rate	R 13,750 / day	Applies to on-site capture work. Where a service is delivered end to end, the rate is higher because it carries the processing, deliverables and visualisation arising from that day.
Uplift to LOD 300 or LOD 350	quote	Billed at the hourly rate against the area you nominate. Order before mobilisation to avoid a return visit.
Point-cloud registration	R 7,500	Ties the whole dataset into the world coordinate system. Unreferenced, the data is accurate within itself; referenced, it is accurate within the world around it.
Ground penetrating radar	to be quoted	Cannot be costed at this stage. See the underground services method below.
Pipe inspection camera	R 50 / m	On the Extended package the footage is attached directly into the Matterport twin at the position of the run. Otherwise it is issued to you as JPEG stills and MP4 video.
Other asset verification	R 250 each	Any item you want carried into an asset register — air-conditioning units, pumps, panels, plant and similar equipment — captured, photographed and tagged to its position.
Site-specific OHS file	R 7,500	Please confirm whether this is a requirement for the site.
Construction monitoring visit	R 35,000 / visit	One day on site with multiple team members: a technical-twin scan plus an aerial survey over the affected area, all processing and phase reporting, and a dashboard comparison against the previous milestone showing what has changed.
Final as-built scan and redraw	quote	Quoted against the area that needs to be redrawn, at the final monitoring milestone.
Point-cloud classification	to be quoted	Priced per category.

Aerial 360 imagery depends on approvalThe aerial component of the virtual tour is subject to CAA approval and to landowner permission from the port authority. Our application is lodged. If approval is not granted in time, we will mount the camera on a three metre extension pole and capture an elevated view from that height. This gives a useful vantage across the floor plate, but it will not reach the roof — roof-level imagery is only achievable with the approvals in place.

7 · Underground

Underground services — our method

Ground penetrating radar is not included in either package. In its place we use a layered method that costs materially less and, in our experience, answers most of the questions GPR is usually brought in to answer.

Layer	What it establishes
Manual manhole inspection	Pipe position, direction and the depth of the manhole at every accessible access point.
Aerial terrain contour	Accurate ground levels across the whole site. Because the contour resolves even slight falls in the ground, and buried lines are generally laid to follow that fall, the surface model lets us model a realistic run between two points of known depth rather than guessing at it.
Points-of-interest capture	A scanned, taggable record at every service, outlet and access point, so future queries can be answered from the dataset rather than by returning to site.

This is why these items sat inside the Extended package. They remain available as add-ons on either package, so the capability is not lost from within the 3D scan — what has reduced is the extent of scanning required to reach it.

Pipe inspection camera & tracer reel — flag any known problems upfrontOur pipe inspection camera and tracer reel reach 60 m into a line and carry a distance counter, so a defect is recorded at its exact metreage inside the pipe. We transfer that distance to the surface and tag it on the Matterport directly above the faulty service, which means the problem has a real position on site rather than a note in a report. The reel is too large to travel with us by air, so if you are aware of any current leaks, blockages or problem lines, please tell us before we mobilise. We will then plan a road trip from the outset on whichever of the two visits suits, rather than discovering the need once we are there and having to fund a return visit.

8 · Efficiency

Working from your existing Revit model

If your team holds an existing Revit model of this building, sharing it with us would make a material difference to what we can fit inside your budget. It does need to be Revit — a non-Revit file cannot be used to your benefit here.

What we would not be doing with it

Every wall, floor, roof and opening still has to be placed and then positioned against our point cloud. The existing model is a starting point, not the deliverable, and what you receive back will be a model built to the reality we capture — not a tidied version of what you already had.

What it saves

The first pass: establishing wall types and thicknesses, door and window families, floor build-ups and the general setup that has to exist before any positioning work can begin. That is a meaningful portion of the drawing effort, and collaborating with the team that produced the original is the fastest route to it.

Why we raise it. The efficiency this creates is what could bring the Extended package — including the perimeter points-of-interest capture that underpins the underground services method — within reach of the same budget as the Recommended package. It is the one variable that meaningfully changes what you can have for the money.

Time-criticalDemolition begins in Period 1 (≈ Sep 2026), and the quay wall-face capture depends on the spring-tide low water landing on the proposed scan weekend. Both anchor the programme — the pre-demolition baseline is the first, highest-value move. And if the spring low-water window is missed, we are not left blind at the quay: the aerial capture will simply see less of the exposed wall face, while the sonar returns depth below the waterline regardless of the tide state, so we still come away with the seabed contour and a usable picture of the quay face.

How We Work & What We Capture

Methodology — five phases

The FPT shed is a ~500 m transit shed with a partial first storey, steel-truss roof, freezer volumes, cold rooms, offices and quayside, undergoing phased demolition and new build. We record it accurately before it changes, then make that record usable at every step — capture once, use many times. Pricing is deliberately layered so you pay for detail only where it's needed.

Two layers

360 capture → the visual layer — the virtual tour anyone can walk. Technical twin → the technical layer — the measurable, dimensioned reference. See "Visual & Technical" for how the two work together.

Every service follows the same end-to-end methodology — from planning and site capture through processing, technical deliverables and final visualisation. We don't treat scanning as an isolated site activity; we take responsibility for the full journey from raw field data to a structured, accurate and accessible result. This ensures every project is captured with purpose, processed to the required level of detail, and delivered in a format that is ready to use, share and build on. Deep-dive any phase below.

Capture Scope & Level of Detail

How we capture — and to what level

A full comprehensive capture of every area, bottom-up and top-down, with the method chosen per area's condition and access. We keep two measures distinct: Scan Density (how detailed the point cloud is) and BIM LOD (how developed the Revit model is) — both described on one Level of Detail (LOD 100–400) scale.

Terminology we'll standardise with youYour RFQ used "LOD 300/400" for the scan and "LOD 200" for Revit. To keep it clear: point clouds are quoted by Scan Density, models by BIM LOD (Level of Detail), and everything rolls up onto one LOD 100–400 scale. Your "LOD 300 external / 400 internal" we read as the intent to support those model levels. Version 2 answered that by capturing at technical density across the whole site. Version 3 captures and draws at LOD 200, which is the agreed drawing deliverable, and concentrates higher density on the items you nominate. Uplifts to LOD 300 / 350 / 400 remain available over nominated areas.

Scan LOD vs BIM LOD — how the levels match up

One table for both measures: what the point cloud captures at each level (Scan Density) alongside what the Revit model contains (BIM LOD), on a single LOD 100–400 scale.

Level	Scan LOD — point cloud	BIM LOD — Revit model	Used for · service level
LOD 100 · Visual	360 tour & imagery; low density, visual only.	Conceptual massing — symbolic / generic.	Orientation, feasibility · L1
LOD 200 · Standard	Technical twin + standard density; drone imagery.	Approximate geometry — this project's base.	As-built, coordination · L2
LOD 300 · Detailed	High density (TLS / SLAM); structure, trusses & MEP. Recommended capture.	Precise, measurable geometry.	Detailed design, quantities, clash · L3
LOD 350 · Detailed +	High density (as LOD 300).	Precise + interfaces — joints, supports, connections.	Multi-trade coordination · L3 · in-house ceiling
LOD 400 · Specialist	Maximum density / specialist (GPR, sonar, robotic).	Fabrication / assembly detail.	Fabrication, shop drawings · L4 · outsourced TBC

Priority elements: structure, trusses, roof-void services, and services feeding & within rooms. Models run in-house to LOD 350; LOD 400 is outsourced to a specialist draughtsman (TBC per drawing). We don't model to LOD 500. BIM mapping: LOD 200 = L2 · 300/350 = L3 · 400 = L4, uplift quoted at the hourly rate against nominated areas.

De-furnished model — included

The cleaned / de-furnished cloud and model (stock, pallets, vehicles, loose furniture removed to reveal shell, structure and services) is a standard deliverable.

Caveat: anything physically hidden behind stock isn't captured — clear areas needing full data, or accept shadowing.

Two-part capture

Part 1 (~2 days; 4–5 with the perimeter points-of-interest capture) — exterior & context: ground control points, drone 3D mapping, 360 virtual tour and manhole inspections, plus quayside drone & sonar if selected. Enough to start drawing the full exterior. 1~2 weeks to process (also the L4 approval window), then Part 2 (~4 days) — internal capture via the technical twin (SLAM/TLS add-ons for higher detail), assets following if selected. Both on the same datum.

In-ceiling access

Roof-void detail via pole SLAM or MEWP + TLS as an alternative to drone — safer near services, higher accuracy, slower. Cost comparison in the dataset.

Scan-zone sequencing — demolition first

Scan zones follow the client's plans, and the first zones are the buildings scheduled for demolition — the entire structure is captured before any demolition, so nothing is lost. Priority follows the Period-1 demolition areas (ambient racking, existing offices, plant rooms, steri, cold rooms, stair tunnels), then the remaining zones by construction period.

Add-on · Construction monitoringOffered as a standalone / ad-hoc package: a post-demolition rescan, then milestone-based scans as the phases progress to May 2028. Typical milestones for a project of this scope (to confirm against the contractor's programme):

Post-demolition / strip-out rescan — clean baseline for new work
Bulk earthworks & below-ground services before backfill — capture buried services while exposed
Foundations, slabs & floor levels
Structural steel / new cold-room & plant-room shells
Roof re-sheet, roof-void services & insulation — before close-up
First-fix services in rooms — before ceilings/linings close
Steri tunnels, quayside expansion & rail reinstatement
Second-fix / pre-handover, then as-built at practical completion

Services · Grouped To Match Pricing

Services & deliverables

Grouped exactly like the pricing: what's included in the standard service first, then top-ups, add-ons and specialist work. Each card lists the deliverables it produces and deep-dives into the what/why/where/when/who/how, its risks and pricing.

Included in the standard service

What you receive (all included in the standard service): georeferenced point cloud, de-furnished clean shell, LOD 200 drawings, 360 virtual tour, measurable technical twin, reports / registers and the Project Hub.

Deliverable file formats — what each is for

Format	What it is	Used for
.rcp	Autodesk ReCap project file.	The point-cloud format required to bring the scan into Revit.
.las	Standard / raw point-cloud format.	The raw point cloud — widely compatible, opens in most survey/CAD tools.
.e57	Open point-cloud exchange format.	Vendor-neutral sharing of georeferenced clouds between platforms.
.rvt	Autodesk Revit model.	The BIM model itself (version to be confirmed).
.ifc	Open BIM exchange format.	Sharing the model with non-Revit software.
.nwd / .nwc	Navisworks review files.	Coordination, clash review and walk-throughs.
.jpg / .tif	Orthophotos & imagery.	Scaled top-down images, elevations and documentation.

Project Hub ties every deliverable together — the 360 virtual tour as the front door, with reports, asset registers, drawings, point clouds, the technical twin, inspections, photos and linked defects all interconnected as one source of truth.

Top-up — BIM detail (nominated areas)

Add-on services

Level 4 / specialist (quote after Standard Capture was conducted)

Why specialist work is quoted after the standard capture: GPR, land survey, in-ceiling and point-cloud classification can only be quoted accurately once the standard capture has focused the work to specific areas — applying them blanket across 73,000 m² would be enormously expensive. Targeting saves substantial budget.

Two Layers, One Model

Visual layer & technical layer

We build two complementary layers so both non-technical stakeholders and engineers are served from the same capture.

Visual · L1–L2

360 Virtual Tour

Ground-based and aerial 360 footage stitched into an interactive virtual tour — the way anyone walks the site in a browser without any technical knowledge. This is the visual layer: intuitive, shareable, the front door to the Project Hub.

Great for orientation, stakeholder buy-in, "walk it before it's built"
Ground + aerial coverage, inside and out

Technical · L2–L3

Technical Twin

Technical twin provides the technical layer: a measurable, dimensionally-reliable twin you can take distances and areas from, tag assets in, and tie to the point cloud and BIM model.

Measure-in-browser, asset tagging, defect linking
The bridge between the visual tour and the engineering data

In short: 360 capture = what it looks like (visual); technical twin = what it measures (technical). Both link into the Hub so a stakeholder in the tour and an engineer in the model are looking at the same place.

Commercial Logic

Pricing & calculator

Start with one of the two packages below — the price sits right under each name. Travel is shown separately, and the full à-la-carte schedule of everything else follows. A live calculator at the foot of this tab totals it all for you.

Build only what you need. We keep the standard capture service (effective ≈R11.50/m²) fixed and lean — the baseline almost any construction project needs — and make everything above it modular, à la carte. You stack only the layers your needs call for, so budget is spent as bespoke as possible rather than on a one-size package.

What each rate covers · Ph0 → Ph4Every rate here spans the full workflow — Phase 0 planning, Phase 1 capture, Phase 2 processing, Phase 3 deliverables and Phase 4 visualisation — not just on-site capture days. Hosting is part of Phase 4: it's how the technical twin and data are actually viewed, so one month is included and ongoing hosting is optional (see the hosting note below).

Two packages — recommended & extended

The first is our recommended option for this site. All figures exclude VAT and are indicative — the calculator lets you adjust every quantity.

Recommended

Interior + facade wrap

R 564,400excl. VAT · indicative46,600 m² · LOD 200 · effective ≈R11.50 / m²

46,600 m² captured to LOD 200 — five interior zones, each a 100 m section across the width of the building, each carrying outward to wrap the facade attached to that zone
GPS verification placed on the facade wrap to hold alignment, which keeps specialist survey attendance out of the scope
Georeferenced point cloud + de-furnished shell + LOD 200 drawings of everything captured
Aerial LiDAR capture across the full extent of the site — in excess of 70,000 m²
360 virtual tour (up to 50 photo positions) + Project Hub
Quayside sonar — 20 m offset across the full 500 m quay length
Part 1 & Part 2 capture as described in the programme

Extended

Recommended + perimeter points of interest

R 608,900excl. VAT · indicativeRecommended + R44,500 fixed exterior extension

Everything in the Recommended package
Exterior points-of-interest capture — a fixed fee of R44,500 covering a two to three day window on site, including processing and asset tagging
Capture taken to every service, stormwater outlet, manhole and taggable feature around the site perimeter
No level of detail is assigned to this capture — it is a point-of-interest record, not a measured survey
Gives every later manhole, asset and defect a true position to be pinned to in the twin

What separates the two. They share the core methodology, the LOD 200 scan-and-draw base, the aerial capture, the virtual tour, the quayside sonar and the Part 1 / Part 2 programme. Recommended is the measured capture: the interior plus the facade wrap that carries GPS control inward. Extended adds the perimeter points-of-interest capture as a fixed fee — scanning to every service, outlet and manhole around the site so that future queries can be answered from the dataset rather than by returning to site. Both packages draw from the same add-on menu, and both are stripped back to the capture work itself: manholes and fire equipment are itemised rather than absorbed, so you carry only what the site turns out to need. Indicative figures shown.

Travel & mobilisation — billed separately

Travel sits outside the spec prices above and is billed at cost. Flights, accommodation (R1,750 / person / night incl. sustenance) and transport are projected automatically per trip in the calculator below — from your chosen spec and add-ons — and flagged as estimates, verified on approval and invoiced at cost. Because it's at-cost, please raise a two-part purchase order: one for the project value, and a separate flexible travel PO, so any travel overrun never holds up the final project payment.

Note · road transport for certain equipmentThe pipe camera, GPR and enterprise mobile-mapping systems cannot be transported by air. Whenever any of these is required for a trip, that visit switches to road travel (car) instead of flights — the calculator accounts for this automatically.

How the rest is priced

Everything above the standard service is modular. Stack only what each need calls for.

Firm · effective ≈R11.50/m²

What the standard service includes

Interior capture (~40,000 m²) plus the facade wrap (~6,600 m²), and aerial LiDAR capture across the full extent of the site
Georeferenced point cloud + de-furnished clean shell (via twin + Revit)
LOD 200 drawings / model of everything captured
360 virtual tour + Project Hub
Optional perimeter points-of-interest capture as a fixed R44,500 extension (Extended)

Top-ups, add-ons & specialist

Top-ups add BIM detail over nominated areas (LOD 300 / 350 / 400), quoted against the area you nominate.
Add-ons are fixed unit rates (per manhole / asset / metre / visit) plus the site OHS file.
L4 / specialist work is TBQ after the initial scan focuses the areas — avoiding blanket surveying of 73,000 m².
+30% management fee on 3rd-party specialist services. Italic = estimate; firm figures in green.

Why TBQ & the 10% contingency. Some specialist work can't be sized until the initial scan reveals conditions, so it's quoted afterwards (TBQ) against focused areas. Where we quote a duration-based add-on upfront, a 10% contingency covers normal variance; anything well outside that we flag and coordinate with you for a top-up rather than absorb or surprise-bill.

Data hosting (Phase 4 · visualisation) — 1 month complimentary; subscriptions optional	per project, once volumes known	TBC

Client value: LOD 200 drawings of everything are bundled into the capture rate (effective ≈R11.50/m²), detail uplifts are fixed and modular, and specialist work is only quoted (TBQ) once the initial scan focuses it — so budget isn't spent capturing areas that don't need it.

Why extend to the perimeter? The interior + facade wrap covers the standard need, but taking capture to every point of interest around the perimeter unlocks perimeter value: every manhole and asset we capture with the data-collection app can be pinned to its true position, and the individual reports (contents, depth, condition) sit on that location in the twin. The same applies to any defects — e.g. from pipe-camera inspections — which we can place exactly where they occur. So if perimeter asset-tagging and located reporting matter, the extended exterior scan pays for itself.

Note · drone flight applicationsEach drone flight needs applications to the CAA (Civil Aviation Authority) and TNPA (Transnet National Ports Authority). One application per trip is included in the trip fee. If a flight is cancelled — by CAA, TNPA / the Port, or weather — a re-application is required at R2,750 per application. As we were asked to lodge the first application immediately, on Monday 27 July, ahead of this proposal being approved, the R2,750 becomes payable if you choose not to proceed, to cover that upfront cost.

Commercial note · data hostingFirm hosting rates can't be set at this stage — until the site is scanned we don't know the data size or volume, so costing it now isn't feasible. Our approach: unless specified otherwise, all data includes one month's hosting complimentary (built into the service). For longer access we'd likely offer a one-year subscription on Matterport and on the Insta360 data (~4 TB) — which also supports construction monitoring to a degree. We don't consider it cost-effective to maintain the mobile-mapping / SLAM platform's hosting across the full ~18-month construction period. The platforms also bill differently (the technical-twin platform per space, the 360 cloud per terabyte, the mobile-mapping platform per m² — with scan overspill beyond the site boundary adding billable m²), so these are wrapped into a single consolidated hosting fee plus a project service fee, confirmed once volumes are known.

Capture is a time-based estimate resolving to an effective R11.50/m² across the 46,600 m² measured scope, including LOD 200 drawings. Quayside sonar R37,000 (20 m offset, full quay length) sits in both packages; the Extended perimeter points-of-interest capture is a fixed R44,500 over a two to three day window. Add-ons: high-detail hours R1,890 (half-day minimum), manhole R850 each capped at R17,000, fire equipment R375 each capped at R15,000, pipe camera R50/m, other assets R250, monitoring R35,000/visit, OHS file R7,500, final as-built quoted on the area to be redrawn, point-cloud registration R7,500. Beyond each cap, further items are captured at no additional fee. Auto-durations: Part 1 = aerial LiDAR + 360 + GPS + quayside sonar (+2–3 days on Extended for the perimeter); Part 2 = the measured capture at ~13,500 m²/day under LOD 200 density. Working week = 5 days: any trip over 5 field days automatically adds weekend accommodation. All prices exclude VAT. Payment: 40% deposit · 30% on data-processing completion · 30% on drawing handover.

Purchase order — please split into twoBecause flights, accommodation and transport are billed at cost (estimated here, verified on approval), we ask for a two-part purchase order: one for the project / contract value, and a separate flexible travel PO for mobilisation. That way, if travel runs over its estimate it never holds up the final payment due on the project itself.

Programme & construction-monitoring roadmap

Straight from the engineer's CAD: the demolition and construction zones with their periods, our capture programme mapped against them, and how construction monitoring feeds handover and the start of the FM solution. Everything lives here so scope, time and team stay in one place.

Next four weeks — live capture schedule

What's happening on the ground over the coming month, driven by the package you pick. Set your start date, switch packages, and swap the interior method to see the timeline shift. Click any event for its full detail — team, service, fee basis and description.

Week 1 start (applications lodged)

Package

Interior method

Enterprise mobile-mapping speed option: the standard Matterport technical twin takes about 2 weeks to capture + 2 weeks (10 days) to process ≈ 4 weeks; swapping to enterprise-grade mobile mapping is 2 days on site + 3 days processing ≈ 1 week — cutting roughly 3 weeks off the turnaround. Scan 2 begins 1~2 weeks after Part 1 — deliberately not sooner, so there's time to process the exterior, coordinate any L4 / specialist sub-contractors, process their quotes, revert to you for approval and deploy. Monitoring rescans, handover and FM sit beyond this 4-week window — see the full construction programme below.

Capture → processing → drawings — Gantt

The same schedule as the cards above, laid out as a Gantt and extended through processing and the drawings / 3D-modelling window. Updates live with the package, interior method and start date.

Drawings / 3D modelling ≈ 45 days to the 3D model — this is an estimate and can only be finalised once Scan 1 (Part 1) is completed. Interior processing runs ~2 weeks for Matterport (or ~3 days for mobile mapping); construction-monitoring rescans and handover continue into the full construction programme below.

Approvals first, then Part 1The drone-flight applications to the CAA (Civil Aviation Authority) and the TNPA (Transnet National Ports Authority) were lodged on Monday 27 July 2026. These authorities typically take 5–7 working days, sometimes longer on the port side, which places the expected clearance around Monday 3 to Wednesday 5 August.

On that basis we propose Part 1 mobilises on Wednesday 5 August 2026 — deliberately after the approvals rather than alongside them. Mobilising into an unapproved airspace window would mean splitting Part 1 across two visits and paying twice to travel. Running it as a single mobilisation with the approvals in hand keeps the aerial LiDAR, the GPS control, the 360 tour and the quayside work in one trip. Outstanding: the TNPA landowner permission still needs a port authority signature alongside Focus PM — a harbour master contact from your side would help us close this out.

⚠ Tide notification · preferred Scan-1 deployment dateThe quayside sonar (Level 3) and its paired drone scan run in Scan 1 and depend on the spring low-tide window — fixed by nature. The spring low-water date is our preferred Scan-1 deployment date, to catch that window as closely as possible. Action: the exact spring low-water date & time must be confirmed against the official SANHO (SA Navy Hydrographic Office) Durban tide table and locked in before mobilising — spring tides fall around new & full moon, roughly every two weeks. Missing the window pushes the quay wall-face capture to the next spring tide (~2 weeks later). Confirmed spring low-water date/time: __________ (to be inserted from the tide table).

Scan visits are measured in days, processing in weeks, and monitoring spans the months of construction — durations to be confirmed once access windows are agreed.

First month — week by week

Week 1 · from Mon 27 Jul — the drone-flight applications are already lodged with the CAA and TNPA; clearance is expected 3–5 August. No field work is scheduled against this week.

Week	Focus	Team
Week 2 · from Wed 5 Aug	Approvals in hand, mobilise and run Part 1 as a single visit — GPS control on permanent features, full-site aerial LiDAR, the 360 virtual tour and the quayside sonar on the spring low-water window. On the Extended package the perimeter points-of-interest capture runs in the same trip.	Surveyor Scan Drone Asset
Week 3	Finish Part 1, then process & review — register the exterior data, start drawing the full exterior with services, and scope what Part 2 needs.	Data Lead
Week 4	Part 2 — return for the internal capture via the technical twin, roughly 4 days at LOD 200 density across the 46,600 m² measured scope.	Scan Surveyor
Week 5	Close out any nominated high-detail items and manhole or asset capture if selected, then straight into processing. The mobile-mapping speed option only comes in here if a faster turnaround is required.	Scan Asset

The whole of Part 1 now sits behind the approvals. If either the CAA or the TNPA clearance runs late, Part 1 moves as a block rather than splitting — and the quayside sonar re-anchors to the next spring low-water window.

How the roadmap delivers value

Main scan

One accurate baseline

The Part 1 & 2 baseline captures the whole terminal before demolition — the reference every later milestone registers back to.

Construction monitoring

Value at each milestone

Milestone rescans catch below-ground services before backfill, verify structure & services against the model, and keep the as-built live — reducing rework and disputes.

Handover & FM

Straight into operations

At completion the virtual tour becomes the handover & document-handling front door, then rolls directly into the FM solution going forward.

Standalone vs all-in-one: this tracker lives inside the proposal on purpose — one source of truth for scope vs time vs team. Our full interactive master project tracker (with editable dates & exports) can also be provided as a live working tool if required; this view keeps everything at a single reference.

Consolidated Risk Register

All risks in one place

Every risk flagged across the services, gathered here so we can plan one mitigation strategy — and decide which risk is best answered by a change of technology or a shift in timing. High risks are the ones to resolve before mobilising. This table is generated from the same data as the deep-dives, so it stays in sync.

Item	Level	Why it's a risk	How to overcome (technology / timing)

PrioritiesThe high risks — quayside sonar tidal window and targeted / untargeted GPR cost — are best mitigated by timing (lock the spring-tide low water; sequence L4 after L1–L3) and by technology choice (MEWP + TLS for roof-void access). The processing data-gap risk is mitigated by flagging occluded areas during capture to avoid a return visit.

Drone

Mobilisation — by trip: Part 1 travels as Rico (Johannesburg) + Ryan (Cape Town, drone); Part 2 as Ruan (Cape Town, interior capture) + Rico (Johannesburg), joined by Jonathan (Johannesburg) if asset collection is selected. Flights, accommodation (R1,750 / person / night incl. sustenance) and ground transport are worked out automatically per trip from the scope. Where equipment can’t fly (pipe camera, GPR, mobile-mapping) that trip switches to road. The calculator on the Pricing & Calculator tab projects it all live, and flights are estimates verified on approval and invoiced at cost.

Risk · weather dependencyDrone flights and the capture window are weather-dependent. If the weather doesn't permit, it can extend accommodation and force flight changes. We therefore recommend booking the flexi (changeable) flight option on every ticket, so a weather delay doesn't mean buying a complete second ticket.
