Retail Tenancy Plans for Stores, Shopping Centres and Fitouts
Accurate measured plans for retail leasing, store design, fitout coordination, make-good works and multi-site rollouts.
Accurate Retail Plans for Leasing, Fitout and Store Rollouts
Retail spaces change frequently. Tenancies are subdivided, merged, refurbished, rebranded and handed over between tenants. Accurate retail tenancy plans help landlords, retailers, designers and fitout contractors understand the current space before decisions are made.
3D Walkabout provides retail tenancy plans using 3D laser scanning and CAD drafting workflows. We capture the retail space, shopfront, back-of-house areas and relevant site conditions, then produce clear floor plans and supporting documentation for leasing, fitout, make-good, design or asset management.
This service is useful for shopping centres, retail strips, franchise groups, hospitality operators, landlords, asset managers and project teams managing single stores or multi-site rollout programmes.

WHAT CAN BE INCLUDED
What Can Be Included?
Retail tenancy plans can include the following. The plan detail should match the use — a lease plan may be simpler than a fitout base plan or refurbishment documentation package.

- Back-of-house areas
- Storage rooms and staff areas
- Counters and fixed joinery
Services and Structure
- Amenities and wet areas
- Service cupboards and risers
- Columns and structural features
- Ceiling or bulkhead references
- Floor level changes
Centre and Boundary
- Display zones where relevant
- Mall interfaces and access points
- Fire exits and circulation paths
- Tenancy boundary references
- CAD and PDF outputs
IMPORTANCE
Why Retail Tenancy Plans Are Important
Retail projects often run on tight timelines. Designers, landlords, tenants and fitout contractors need accurate information early so they can plan layouts, services, signage, fixtures, approvals and construction works.
Outdated or simplified plans can cause problems. A shopfront may not be where assumed. Columns may affect the layout. Back-of-house spaces may have changed. Ceiling heights, services and access points may limit what can be built.
A laser-scanned retail tenancy plan helps reduce these issues by documenting the space as it exists now.

Give designers and contractors accurate base plans before developing fitout documentation.
Franchise and Brand Rollouts
Survey multiple retail locations to a consistent standard for rollout planning.
Shopping Centre Tenancy Updates
Document tenancy changes, shopfronts, back-of-house areas and common interfaces.
Make-Good Works
Capture tenancy conditions before reinstatement, refurbishment or tenant exit works.
