Industry challenges

Fire Safety and Certification providers are under pressure to deliver accurate, compliant evacuation documentation quickly, without the inefficiencies of traditional drafting tools and fragmented workflows.

Inefficient, overly complex drafting tools

Traditional CAD software is time-consuming, difficult to scale, and not built for fire safety workflows, slowing production and increasing costs.

Inconsistent outputs across teams and sites

Without standardised tools, evacuation diagrams vary in format and accuracy, creating rework and potential compliance risk.

Fragmented workflows and manual processes

Drafting, publishing and asset visualisation often sit in separate systems, limiting visibility, collaboration and growth.

75% reduction in diagram creation time

AFP first recognised PlanStudio®, for its increased efficiency of providing evacuation diagrams to their customers in ¼ of the time. They noted that a recent job they had completed for a large local school took them around two weeks. Had it not been for PlanStudio®, they would still be struggling to complete the workload a month later.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our software suite answered.

Why should I move from Corel/CAD/Excel/Visio?

PlanStudio® is purpose-built for the industry, not adapted from generic drafting or spreadsheet software. Unlike other CAD software, Excel or Visio, PlanStudio® combines all the tools you need in one streamlined platform, with built-in automation to reduce manual work, minimise errors, and standardise outputs across your team. Instead of juggling multiple files and formats, you can manage sites, buildings and floor plans in a single system designed specifically for your workflow and the creation of evacuation diagrams and your outputs.

Is PlanStudio® hard to learn?

PlanStudio® is purpose-built for the industry, which means no redundant tools, no complicated setup and no unnecessary CAD complexity. The platform is standardised, layers are automated and everyone uses the software in the same way, making it simple to keep plans consistent across your team. To help you get started, we provide:

  • Built-in training guides, available in app.
  • A comprehensive Zendesk knowledge base.
  • A dedicated support team.
  • Step-by-step video tutorials.

Compared to traditional CAD software, most users can produce their first compliant diagrams by the end of the day.

How does Locatrix support fire safety consultants and certifiers?

PlanStudio® provides a structured platform for creating compliant evacuation diagrams aligned with current standards.

It helps consultants and certifiers by enabling:

  • Consistent diagram outputs.
  • Version control across revisions.
  • Faster updates following inspections.
  • Clear documentation trails for compliance evidence.

This improves workflow efficiency while maintaining regulatory integrity.

What if my floor plans are outdated or don’t exist?

Start with whatever information you have, even if it’s incomplete or from multiple sources. PlanStudio® includes up-to-date satellite imagery, giving you an accurate building outline as a reliable starting point. From there, you can import from a wide range of sources, including:

  • Photos (taken on site or provided by a client, including old evacuation diagrams or other signage).
  • PDFs from Real estate, CAD files or old architectural plans.
  • Hand-drawn sketches & lidar scans.

You can then refine and update your plans using our AI-powered tools or our purpose built drawing tools for full control and ownership over your plans, If you’d rather not do it yourself, our team can handle the heavy lifting for you delivering completed plans for your review and approval.

Can I import CAD plans?

Absolutely, you have the option to convert it to a PDF format. Additionally, PlanStudio® allows you to import geoTIFF and other formats as well, there are tutorials and step by step guides that can assist you to import any type of existing plan.

How long does implementation of PlanStudio® take?

Once you are signed up, it takes moments to download the app or launch it straight from your web browser and get started.

Can Locatrix handle our unique requirements and future facility changes?

PlanStudio® is designed to become a living digital version of your buildings not just a static, disjointed set of drawings. Updating your facility is as simple as modifying your base plan and clicking publish. All diagrams and outputs reflect the changes automatically, ensuring continual accuracy making keeping plans up-to-date easy. Your account includes the flexibility to:

  • Create and customise equipment libraries.
  • Build templates tailored to your workflows and outputs.
  • Add custom data fields relevant to your compliance needs.
  • Design themes and style templates that align with your company’s branding.
How often should evacuation diagrams be updated?

Under AS 3745-2010, emergency plans and procedures must be reviewed regularly and whenever there are changes that affect emergency response.

This may include:

  • Building alterations.
  • Changes to exits or safety equipment.
  • Changes to occupancy or building use.

PlanStudio® allows diagrams to be updated quickly and republished instantly, ensuring documentation remains aligned with real-world conditions.

Why do my buildings need to be spatially located?

Spatial accuracy in PlanStudio® is simply part of the process, PlanStudio® seamlessly integrates indoors and outdoors via high-resolution satellite imagery. This ensures all floor plans have real-world size and location data, that not only reduces the margin for error when creating floor plans off poor original base plans but also enables users to accurately gauge the dimensions of their floor plans and the real-world location of exits, assets and data points.

How secure is my data?

Locatrix takes data security seriously and our products are continuously subjected to security audits and testing by external vendors in accordance with ISO 27001. To find out more about how we keep your data safe, check out our Security & Compliance page.
