Navigating Global Drawing Services in 2025

The global Leading Drawing Management Company

How We Address The Risk

We understand that maintaining the operational excellence of your facilities is paramount. That’s why we’ve innovated the perfect solutions over the last two decades.

Scanning Process

RISK: Errors in scanning or equipment malfunction could affect the quality of the digital copies. 

➡️ We provide accurate PDF scans of hardcopy drawings. Each drawing is fixed, taped, and cropped to perfection. Customized settings for each drawing ensure high-quality images and thorough quality control guarantees optimal digital translation.  

Empty Software

RISK: We don’t have the manpower for the overhead costs of the data entry into software.   

➡️ We understand that clean, accurately populated software lays the foundation for your success. You receive software loaded with fully updated data and master plans ready for immediate use. Sharing project plans with contractors or maintenance crews has never been easier. You never get empty software or a file folder shared drive as your single source of truth. 

Band-Aid Solution

RISK: If we just scan everything and use excel, we will be better off, right? 

➡️ We focus on solving the root problem, not just masking the symptoms with a Band-Aid solution. 

Data Loss Prevention

RISK: We couldn’t imagine losing all the data that’s digital. 

➡️ After listening to our clients for the past two decades, we know the security of your facility is your top priority. That’s why we perform daily backup synchronization of all processed work to protect against data loss.  

Project Timelines

RISK: Unforeseen delays or scheduling conflicts could impact project timelines.

➡️ We align with project schedules to maintain progress and meet delivery dates. We are an agile team and your all-in-one solution for effective drawing management and digital transformations.

Onsite Inventory

RISK: Materials could be misfiled or lost, leading to delays in locating specific drawings. 

➡️ During white-glove extraction we track all materials on-site, ensuring an organized and accessible collection. This allows us to quickly locate any drawing during the project. If you call and need something before scanning, we can refer quickly to the drawer, cabinet or desk it was extracted from.  

Shipping

RISK: A potential for damage or loss during transit.  

➡️ During white-glove extraction we manage the delivery of drawings directly from your facility to ours, avoiding delays and losses with third-party shipping.

Site Validation

RISK: Inaccurate naming conventions can lead to difficulty in searching for and retrieving drawings. 

➡️ We focus on one thing; to see your buildings clearly. We do this by ensuring data is reflected properly by reviewing our client’s historical and current naming conventions. We work with your team to enable seamless search and retrieval of your digital drawings within seconds, no matter what decade the drawing came from.  

Third-party Contracting

RISK: Miscommunication or errors in translation can affect the clarity and quality of third-party deliverables. 

➡️ We offer translation services for third-party deliverables, ensuring clarity and quality. BLS is your all-in-one solution for effective drawing management. By the end of the project, we will know your facility better than most of your team.  

User Adoption

RISK: Users may still face difficulties in adopting the new system, which could affect overall efficiency.

➡️ We offer self-guided tutorials to ensure smooth integration and user adoption. For additional cost we can work one-on-one or offer user training days for your whole team. We do this in-person or online. 

Every project has its risks, but over the years we’ve done our best to address your fears with a solution. If there are any risks to a digital transformation we are not covering them here. Let’s talk!

Have you ever faced drawing challenges in managing your floor plans, MEP drawings, and renovations efficiently?

Impact: Without proper version control, teams risk working on outdated information, leading to potentially costly mistakes.

Efficiency and Safety Concerns

Problem: Efficiency and safety concerns related to the health and safety of the community.
Impact: Compromises safety protocols, endangering occupant safety and delaying emergency responses.

Access and Security Concerns

Problem: Managing who has access to what drawings, especially when dealing with sensitive or confidential information, is critical.
Impact: Inadequate control can lead to unauthorized access, risking information leaks and breaches of confidentiality.

Collaboration Challenges

Problem: Coordinating updates and changes across geographically dispersed teams can be slow and inefficient.
Impact: Poor collaboration and communication can lead to misalignments, project delays, and increased costs.

Inefficiency and Inaccuracy

Problem: Risks associated with inefficiencies or inaccuracies in drawing management.

The global Leading Drawing Management Company

Who Are Our Competitors?

The Drawing Specialists are the leading drawing management company in the world, bringing facilities management the confidence to maintain their buildings in the digital era.

It’s what we do best!

No Direct Competitors

Why? We are a one-stop solution for drawing management, embodying the “Blue Ocean” strategy by keeping laser-focused on solving the deepest pain points facilities managers have in terms of maintaining a building.

Misunderstood Competition

Scanning house. We are not comparable to a scanning house. We provide much more than a folder structure of unidentifiable scans. Our hands-on service provides clarity in our client’s hardcopy drawings before we even turn on the scanner. Once the scanner is on, the attention to detail in extracting the best quality scan possible per drawing alone sets us apart. Not a set the scanner and run the system. However, our deliverable of organization and naming conventions make these scans useful. It is also important to note that scanning is a small but important step in our overall drawing management strategy.

Internal Network

Without knowledge, internal IT departments push their company’s servers and folder structures as a quick solution. However, this will create chaos a digital mess which we will happily fix.

PM vs. DMS

Understanding there is difference between the software and services in the facilities management market is very important. PMS assists the FM with the management of his ongoing projects. It doesn’t help with keeping accurate MEP or Arch drawings updated and in one quick-to-reference location.

SP vs. DMS

Space planning software is the proper utilization of physical space in a facility. How to use every available space for its intended purposes, such as storage, meeting rooms, or desk space. SPS doesn’t manage facility drawings, nor does it act as a Single Source of Truth for version control.

CM vs. DMS

Building a new building and maintaining a building are very different. Construction drawings and project drawings are used to create or renovate a facility.

While our BaseLINE CAD drawings are created to maintain a facility. Here is a great article on what happens to a building with years of ignoring the maintenance side of drawing management.

Offering over 30 specialized drawing services for facilities, backed by our unique proprietary software we are just as unique as your building. 

Don’t let project delays, budget overruns, and the unknowns of your facility’s infrastructure keep you up at night.
