Whether you're managing a national retail chain, hospitality project, or complex commercial site, our streamlined process ensures you get precise, detailed site information and permit compliance from start to finish, no matter where your projects are located.
 

What We Offer:

1. Self-Performed Matterport & LiDAR Surveys – Coast-to-Coast Coverage

Our team of highly skilled Davacans captures exact site conditions using Matterport combined with LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology, producing high-quality 3D models and virtual tours. LiDAR enables unparalleled accuracy, allowing us to document even the smallest details of your site. With our nationwide coverage, there is no part of Canada we cannot reach. From the busiest urban centers to the most remote locations, we ensure you get a clear, detailed understanding of existing conditions, saving time and eliminating potential miscommunication between teams.
 

2. ClearThread Software – Enhanced Visibility and Real-Time Data

We leverage our proprietary software, ClearThread™, to further enhance on-site data collection and project management. Developed by DAVACO, ClearThread™ answers the "what, when, and where" questions, helping clients gain better visibility into existing conditions at each store location. ClearThread™ combines mobile technology, real-time data collection, and customized reporting to provide secure, 24-hour access to store information and program status. The software features dedicated client portals, survey and task management modules, and milestone-based reporting to give you the insights you need at every stage of your project. Because it's proprietary, we can tweak ClearThread™ to meet each client's specific needs, ensuring rigidity from existing platforms never becomes an obstacle.
 

3. Engineering Stamp & Permit Closure Support

Beyond capturing visuals, we offer full architectural and mechanical support. Our team works with certified engineers to add the required engineering stamp, ensuring compliance with local building codes and regulations. Additionally, our highly competent field management staff can close building/trade permits with each municipality across the country, ensuring your project is fully compliant and ready to proceed—no matter where your sites are located.
