Then we check the work against that index before delivery. Many drawing projects come with regular records too, such as specifications, submittals and correspondence. We can scan both in the same project. - Index fields agreed before production - A final quality check before delivery - Delivered to SharePoint, network folders or your document system ![Close view of a scanned engineering plan](https://www.dtiibs.com/hubfs/dti-website-2026/photos/large-format/large-format-plan-detail.jpg) ## Security and chain of custody Drawings often show building layouts and infrastructure details. They're handled under the same controls as every other record we scan. Pickup and transportation are coordinated by DTI and shown as their own line item in your quote. - Background-checked staff - A secured facility with biometric access to computers and storage rooms - Segmented storage based on each project's security requirements - Chain-of-custody logs from pickup through return or destruction - Encrypted delivery of the finished files ## Questions about large-format scanning What is large-format scanning? Large-format scanning converts oversized documents, such as engineering drawings, blueprints, maps and plans, into digital files using scanners built for wide sheets. Standard document scanners can't handle these sizes. How large a drawing can you scan? Any size. Tell us the sheet sizes and roughly how many there are, and we'll plan the work around them. Can you scan rolled or worn drawings? Usually, yes. Tell us how the drawings are stored and what condition they're in, and we'll look at a sample before quoting. What format will the scanned drawings be in? Tell us how the drawings will be used, and we'll agree on the file format and resolution before production starts. Can you scan drawings and regular documents in the same project? Yes. Many projects include both. We plan the indexing so drawings and documents for the same project can be found together. ## Tell us about the drawings you need scanned A rough sheet count, the sizes and how people need to find them are enough to start. We'll tell you what a realistic schedule looks like.
