A Nationwide BIM and VDC Consulting Firm
ZELUS® has supported the AECO industry for over 16 years.
ABOUT US
ZELUS is one of the nation's largest BIM Services and VDC consulting firms.
From our headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona, our teams provide reality capture, BIM modeling, VDC coordination, and construction technology support for projects ranging from existing building renovations to large-scale, schedule-critical facilities.
Whether onsite or remote, we support owners, architects, engineers, general contractors, and trade partners across the United States.
OUR IMPACT
Built for Complex, Schedule Critical Work
ZELUS combines construction knowledge with advanced BIM, VDC, and reality capture technology to support projects where accuracy, coordination, and schedule matter. Our teams work across high-density MEP environments, active facilities, large-scale programs, and technically demanding projects where incomplete information or coordination gaps can quickly lead to costly field impacts.
By connecting field conditions with constructable digital workflows, we help project teams identify issues earlier, reduce uncertainty, and make better-informed decisions before those problems reach installation.
OUR FOOTPRINT
Nationwide Reach. Local Project Support.
ZELUS supports projects across the United States and throughout North America, mobilizing field teams where existing conditions need to be captured and extending BIM and VDC expertise wherever project teams need additional support.
Our experience spans large-scale and technically complex environments including data centers, semiconductor facilities, distribution centers, manufacturing, healthcare, retail, government, transportation, commercial developments, and historic structures. Capable of supporting a single facility or a multi-site national program, our teams are built to scale with the project.
OUR VALUES
Values that guide and inspire our team to create new possibilities.
THE ZELUS TEAM
Consulting experience with technical expertise.
Our team consists of construction managers, BIM managers, VDC consultants, lead coordinators, and other experts. The trade-specific knowledge in mechanical, plumbing, electrical, structural, and other areas helps provide innovative client solutions.
WHY ZELUS
Delivering measurable impact where it counts.
Not all BIM and VDC partners deliver the same value. ZELUS combines U.S. based accountability, construction expertise, and execution-focused workflows to help clients reduce risk, improve coordination, and keep projects moving from planning through installation.
