Understanding BIM for FM and operations

It's important to understand what BIM is before taking a look at the benefits of using it. BIM is a way of creating digital models of buildings. These models can help with managing and operating a facility.

So, how does it work? First, someone creates a digital 3-D model of the building using a computer program. Then, they fill in information about the building, including:

• The materials used in the building

• The building's size

• The building's systems (heating, cooling, and plumbing systems, etc.)

With this information, facilities managers can plan for maintenance and repairs. It can also help with identifying potential problems and planning for future changes. Generally, BIM software helps facilities managers ensure that buildings are running smoothly.
