The architecture, engineering, construction, and operations (AECO) sector is undergoing a profound shift. Project teams are expected to deliver faster, communicate more clearly, plan with more certainty, and operate with tighter budgets than ever before. But many organizations still struggle with fragmented workflows, multiple vendors, siloed data, and inconsistent quality, especially when it comes to BIM, visualization, and digital twin initiatives.
Hexagon Multivista is addressing this industry-wide challenge head-on. With the launch of Hexagon Multivista, Hexagon has unified Voyansi, LocLab, Construction Analysis (formerly Avvir), and Multivista into one integrated services brand, creating a seamless, end-to-end portfolio that connects its Capture, Create, Analyze services into a single, frictionless experience for customers. This consolidation is not just a new organizational structure – it’s a transformative step toward simpler, smarter, and more connected project delivery.
Introducing Hexagon Multivista Create services
Create services are designed for the full spectrum of AECO stakeholders:
- Architects and engineers who need BIM professional support to meet demanding design deadlines and BIM strategy planning.
- General contractors who need reliable BIM, VDC, and modeling support to reduce risk, improve coordination, meet owner BIM requirements, and keep complex projects moving from preconstruction through closeout.
- MEP subcontractors who require pre-construction LOD 400 fabrication modeling and coordination as part of project requirements.
- Project managers seeking guidance on BIM execution planning, VDC management (modeling & coordination), digital twin strategy, and technology roadmaps.
- Owners and city planners who must convey design intent and gain public support with high-fidelity visualizations.
- Facility managers and operators who want operational digital twins and as-built modeling.
At its core, the Create service provides comprehensive building and infrastructure modeling, 2D documentation, BIM professional services, VDC management, advanced visualization, simulation, consulting, automation workflows, and connected digital twin services. This includes everything from schematic-level architectural models to fabrication-ready trade coordination models, to clash detection and issue resolution, to photorealistic urban visualizations, to fully connected operational digital twins.
Why Hexagon unified these brands
Our latest press release highlights the disconnected tools, fragmented workflows, and unclear ROI that have continued to create barriers for project teams across the industry. By combining its Capture, Create, Analyze services, Hexagon Multivista simplifies vendor management, improves collaboration, and provides customers with a clear, connected path across every stage of the project lifecycle.
Instead of assembling multiple boutique vendors or hiring internal staff who may lack specialized skills, customers now benefit from:
- A single partner through an established global franchise network operating in 60+ territories.
- A consistent, high-quality service delivery model backed by Hexagon’s global-quality service delivery model backed by Hexagon’s global quality service delivery model backed by Hexagon’s global expertise
- A unified portfolio covering photo documentation, laser scanning, visualization, simulation, modeling, BIM services, and digital twins.
- A connected workflow that carries verified context from capture through modeling, analysis, and operations – reducing handoff friction and rework.
This integration not only reduces complexity but also increases clarity, reduces waste, and accelerates AECO organizations toward a fully digital future.
What our Create service delivers
1. 3D modeling and 2D drafting
Our 3D modeling and 2D drafting services help project teams produce reliable design and documentation outputs aligned to project standards. We develop the right level of detail for each phase, supporting planning, design development, and construction documentation with consistent, buildable information.
Using your existing design inputs and project requirements, we deliver 3D models and 2D drawings that improve clarity for stakeholders and reduce coordination friction. Outputs can support permitting, documentation packages, and owner handover needs without adding long-term overhead to your internal team.
With flexible, off-site production support and QA/QC review, teams can scale capacity during peak workloads, streamline documentation workflows, and keep deliverables moving on schedule.
2. BIM professional services
Our BIM professional services support architects, engineers, and trade partners throughout both design and construction by providing experienced BIM professionals who integrate directly with project teams.
From complex modeling and high-LOD requirements to tight schedules and evolving project needs, our specialists help optimize workflows, coordinate models, and ensure documentation is accurate, complete, and construction-ready.
Whether the need is strategic guidance, BIM consulting, or hands-on production support, we deliver flexible, right-sized services that improve collaboration, reduce risk, and help teams avoid costly rework so projects move forward with clarity and confidence.
3. BIM consulting & automations
Our automation and consulting services combine deep BIM expertise with workflow automation to help customers work smarter across the entire building lifecycle. We start by assessing existing processes and performing in-depth discovery to develop clear BIM strategies, standards, and workflows that support effective technology adoption.
From BIM compliance and coordination to hands-on team support, we ensure digital execution delivers real project value. Building on that foundation, we design and implement workflow automation and BIM-driven software solutions that streamline routine tasks, automate data exchange between applications, and reduce manual errors.
By linking systems, embedding automation, and aligning strategy with execution, we deliver smarter workflows, cleaner data, and faster, more reliable project delivery from design through operations.
4. VDC management
Our VDC management services help construction teams work smarter by overseeing the digital creation, coordination, and governance of project models to proactively identify and resolve issues before they turn into change orders or schedule delays.
Acting as an extension of the project team, our VDC managers facilitate regular coordination meetings, perform model audits, and align stakeholders around clear execution standards – whether supporting projects remotely or on site. This structured, hands-on approach improves collaboration, reduces risk, and keeps complex projects moving forward with fewer surprises and better outcomes from preconstruction through construction.
5. Visualization & simulation
Realistic visualizations help city planners, owners, and developers secure funding, community alignment, and regulatory approvals. During operations, immersive simulations create a safe training environment where staff can practice complex or high-risk tasks – improving readiness, safety, and confidence.
Without these tools, organizations face higher risks of public resistance, misalignment, training gaps, and uncertainty in early planning phases.
6. Connected digital twin
Owners and facilities teams increasingly want visibility into asset performance within a spatial, 3D context. Hexagon Multivista delivers a practical, operations-first connected digital twin designed to start small, scale over time, and align with how facilities teams work.
We use existing plans, photos, scans, and PDFs – combined with AI-assisted modeling – to create affordable spatial context without requiring perfect data or a large upfront investment. Lightweight, purpose-built models are optimized for maintenance, compliance, mobile access, and task execution – not design review – helping teams navigate faster and reduce total ownership effort.
A no-code integration layer can connect the connected digital twin to asset management or work order systems, embedding visual context into daily workflows. Teams can open building context directly from work orders, locate equipment faster, and reduce swivel-chair work between systems.
