What SKETS studio does

SKETS Studio is a Delhi-headquartered BIM (Building Information Modeling) consultancy and design documentation services firm founded in 2005 by Nimisha Bansal and Neeraj Bansal. Operating as SKETS Studio Pvt. Ltd., the company serves global architecture, interior design, and engineering firms as an offshore extended delivery team, producing schematic-to-construction documentation across Architecture, Interiors, MEPF, and Structure disciplines. Its service portfolio spans BIM production, design documentation, 3D visualization, and specialized vertical offerings in hospitality, retail, healthcare, and transportation/infrastructure. The firm employs 950+ professionals (including 500+ dedicated BIM experts) and has delivered 75,000+ projects across 32+ countries, with marquee enterprise engagements including a 7,000-store rollout for a leading global coffeehouse brand and multiple Saudi Arabian mega-projects.

The company's delivery model is built on industry-standard tools including Revit, AutoCAD, Navisworks, BIM 360, Autodesk Construction Cloud, Civil 3D, 3ds Max with V-Ray/Corona, Rhino/Grasshopper, and Unreal Engine 5, with adherence to AIA and RIBA global standards and ISO 9001:2015 process certification. SKETS differentiates on cost (35-40% savings versus client in-house production) and scale (ability to ramp large teams for multi-year enterprise rollouts). Marketing and sales are driven through direct enterprise engagement, industry conferences (AIA, Autodesk University, Sydney Build Expo), Autodesk case study features (2017, 2024), and a content program across blog, newsletter, and social channels.

Revenue is generated through professional services fees on a quote-based engagement model — pricing is not publicly disclosed. The firm is privately held and bootstrapped, with no external funding rounds disclosed; ownership is concentrated with the Bansal family. Geographic expansion in 2025 into Australia and expanded Middle East/UK partnerships, alongside a new AI & Automation service line, represent the most recent strategic moves. SKETS is also a member of the Autodesk Customer Advisory Board and operates the SKETS Hope Centre CSR initiative in partnership with the Shanti Devi Mittal Foundation.
