06Method — survey first

Every project starts with a measurement.

Before we assess or design, we measure. Laser-scanner surveys — often carried out at night, under traffic management — turn existing structures into precise point clouds and three-dimensional models. Design starts from the structure as it really is.

08FAQ

Questions

What clients ask us most often before starting work together.

Q.01Where do you work?

Across the whole of Italy. We have offices in Milano and in Napoli (Centro Direzionale), and we take on public and private commissions nationwide.

Q.02Which phases of a project can you cover?

All of them. We cover the full cycle of infrastructure delivery — planning, survey, design, works direction, safety coordination and final testing — and can join a project at any stage or follow it from start to finish.

Q.03Do you work on existing structures that must stay in use?

Yes. Much of our work is on infrastructure that stays open: we survey at night under traffic management, and direct works that are phased around live roads and motorways.

Q.04How do you guarantee quality?

Through an integrated management system. Our quality management system is certified to ISO 9001:2015 by Bureau Veritas, and certification of our gender-equality system to UNI/PdR 125:2022 is in progress.
