Facilities Management
Do you require accurate records of your properties, assets and underground services?
For more than 20 years, Perth Cadcentre has been enabling organisations to increase efficiency and save costs in the management of their most expensive assets: properties, buildings and equipment. This all starts with capturing these facilities into accurate up-to-date CAD records (ie drawings).
As a specialist in this field, Perth Cadcentre has developed a wealth of experience and established proven procedures in CAD documentation, site measurement (survey), asset audit and data capture to ensure a highly professional and quality product. This is backed by using industry qualified and trained staff and customised CAD tools that ensure standards and quality to the highest level.
The key elements of our services are as follows:
- Project Records: Acquire existing & new project drawings for inclusion into records,
- Plan Conversion: Conversion of manual or CAD drawings into agreed CAD standards,
- Site Measure & Audit: Verify, measure and record actual assets that exist,
- Plan Documentation: Editing and update of drawing records to Australians Standards,
- Plan Maintenance: “As Constructed” documentation from ongoing site audits,
We have a diverse range of customers that include Government Departments, Educational institutions, Health Facilities, and commercial companies throughout Australia. In all cases we use the CAD protocols and standards of those organisations.

PERTH ZOO
Perth Cadcentre has been involved with the Perth Zoo for approx 6 years providing site survey and CAD data capture services for the exhibits and underground site services.
Having very limited CAD or manual drawings, the project initially involved site surveying all buildings, exhibits, night quarters etc and preparing CAD drawings so they could be loaded into their viewing system. In addition to the building data, only a small proportion of the existing site services drawings were available. A complete site survey has been in progress over the last few years, collecting all essential site services. This collection process included the use of electronic detection devices, digging for services, GPS / Tablet PC data capture equipment and collecting the knowledge of the zoo staff.
ROYAL PERTH HOSPITAL
Perth Cadcentre has been involved with RPH for some 20 years in the management and data capture of their “As Constructed” database of building and services records. To date in excess of 3,500 manual drawings have been converted to CAD and added to the CAD and GIS Database. These drawings refer to the Perth, Shenton Park, Swan Districts and Kalamunda campuses.
Typical data captured includes:
- Base Plans
- Fire Evacuation Plans
- Fire Detection and Protection services
- Computer services
- Telecommunication & Telemetry services
- Power facilities
- Lighting facilities (including Emergency)
- Medical Gas services
- Mechanical services
- Water and Sewer
All CAD data has been captured and converted using complimentary capabilities of the GDS and AutoCAD applications. In addition to the services data collected, we have set up a space database of all sites, buildings, floors and rooms.
Perth Cadcentre manages the hospitals total CAD and digital databases in house, with regular updates provided to the hospital for use by their facilities, maintenance and engineering staff.
