Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology is becoming increasingly popular in the facilities management and operations industry. BIM software allows users to manage and share building information across various teams. It also enables building owners and operators to manage their assets and operations better.
BIM provides many benefits, from improved collaboration to enhanced efficiency. Here is an in-depth discussion on the advantages of using BIM for facilities management and operations.
Understanding BIM for facilities management 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.
