THE clash detection analysis enables clients to validate the design's suitability by comparing it against the actual environment. Identifying clashes in the design phase can save significant costs compared to discovering them during construction, which can lead to costly delays and material expenses. Construction verification using scanning technology ensures that the design concept is implemented on-site, and detecting deviations early allows for problem-solving in the design phase, thus minimizing delays and additional costs.

IT is recommended to scan the object multiple times during the construction process, such as at the end of specific phases completed by different construction teams (e.g. structural completion, MEP installation, and fit-out). When working with BIM, this data can update the model continuously, resulting in a more accurate as-built model for the client. Cloud-to-cloud comparisons can also be conducted to identify changes over an extended period of time.
