Facility Sustainment Management System Automated Population from Building Information Models
In recent years, building information modeling/model (BIM) has demonstrated its return on investment in design and construction. As a result, the Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Operations (AECO) industry has expressed great interest in the use of BIM for facility management. Ideally, BIM models should serve as a full database for different purposes and functions during the project life cycle. However, in reality different stakeholders in the AECO industry are still working in their own silos and are hesitant to collaborate with each other. Unfortunately, facility owners are forced to pay extra costs to repurchase the as-built data for their facility management software after project delivery. Ironically, most of this data was already delivered to them in the BIM models. This paper aims to validate the feasibility of using BIM to populate facility maintenance software automatically in order to avoid unnecessary costs for facility owners. A case study of an administrative building is conducted for this database automation process. In addition, the case study compares the cost of BIM supported facility maintenance software population with the traditional assessment method. Potential savings of using BIM for database automated population are investigated.
