Matterport, Inc. announced that BMO has leveraged Matterport?s digital twin platform to streamline site visits across its physical footprint for multiple areas of the bank. With a need to review each of the locations to create plans for rebranding and other work, BMO utilized Matterport?s Capture Services, the company?s global network of expert capture technicians, to swiftly generate 3D digital twins of each space, including accurate floor plans. In three months, BMO digitally captured all 503 BOTW branches, saving costs for travel and site visits, and approximately 6,000 hours of equivalent survey work.

Previously, the team responsible for this type of work relied on multiple on-site visits to each location to scope the design and technology updates required to bring the interior of the branch to comply with BMO brand standards. Critical documentation like floor plans was often missing from record drawings, creating an early design hurdle. BMO also leveraged Matterport?s exportable schematic floor plans to create a full complement of assets in a fraction of time, further reducing site visits.

Since the BOTW project, the platform has seen widespread demand across multiple departments in BMO. As BMO takes on over 50 projects each year across the US, the bank expects to continue reducing branch visits while saving significant time, money, and carbon emissions with Matterport?s end-to-end solutions.
