This blog post discusses challenges of traditional facility management (FM) and how Building Information Modeling (BIM) can address them.
Challenges of traditional FM:
- Data fragmentation: Information is scattered and disorganized, making it difficult to manage.
- Lack of real-time collaboration: Poor communication and limited access to real-time information hinder teamwork.
- Lack of spatial information: Difficulty with space allocation, planning, occupancy management, and resource utilization.
- Limited data for decision-making: Inaccessible data hinders proactive decision-making.
BIM for FM with DDC Solutions:
- Enhanced data accessibility: BIM provides a centralized, organized system for easy access to crucial information.
- Improved space and energy management: BIM facilitates tracking space dimensions, occupancy, utilization patterns, and energy consumption.
- Enhanced asset management: BIM assigns tags to assets for efficient data retrieval and management.
Benefits of BIM-empowered FM:
- Proactive decision-making
- Improved space and energy efficiency
- Streamlined asset management
- Increased client and customer satisfaction
Overall, BIM empowers facility management by providing a centralized platform for data, improving collaboration, and enabling proactive decision-making for efficient building operations. For more read; BIM for Facility Managers
