BIM IN FM
Response to the needs of GA members, other
big public clients and policy makers to share
knowledge, experience, concerns and
challenges they face when implementing
information management (BIM) in their daily
practice, with a focus on BIM for FM in the
context of public institutions.
Practical experience, insights and case studies
on the use of Building Information Modelling
for Facility Management.
To go into practical details about BIM for FM,
facing everyday life challenges in maintenance,
evaluating the requirements and elaborating a
successful implementation strategy.
The 32 workshop participants were
representatives of large public clients and EU
policymakers from 14 countries - Austria,
Belgium, Croatia, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia,
France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy,
Latvia, Luxembourg and Spain.
In BIM, it is crucial to differentiate between the (sset nformation odel) used during
the maintenance phase and the (roject nformation odel) utilised in the design and
construction phases. These models and exchange information with each other both
at the initiation and upon completion of building projects as described in the ISO 19650 series.
The (purposes) refer to the tasks or processes for which we utilise
. Defining them at the of BIM implementation is crucial and precisely
they must be based on our daily tasks and processes. Not all the BIM purposes are easily
compatible with each other within the same model, also due to current technological limitations.
This is why it is very important to anticipate how they can be , and
, selecting them really carefully. This is a key process during the handover phase when
. In the information model, we will have the and their
that will be stored in the .
in FM can be used as a to refine processes. These can help to better
address organisational needs, develop documents, and align technology with goals, ensuring
effective .
One of the greatest strengths of the in the FM environment is its descriptive and
predictive capabilities, serving as a reliable and
to other FM teams.
In recent years, the FM management sector in has become more and
more digitalised, thus requiring effective . In this sense,
models are a way to prepare, support and sustain this process over time. One
of the most suitable ones for FM is , based on eight points and with a
. The model can be used as a starting point to implement an
organisational to introduce BIM for FM in a public client's internal environment.

When defining the BIM Uses (purposes), it is important to gather input from various
stakeholders (actors) in the construction and maintenance process, focusing on the
why/who/when/what (following EN 17412 series) and establishing the priorities for their
implementation.
When defining the parameters, each parameter should have a purpose and be well
defined. Moreover, assigning responsibility matrix for entering, modifying and updating
each parameter should be determined upfront. It is important to create the right names
and relations between objects in order to avoid duplicate information. The standards are
there to help us.
Kotter’s model for Change Management is a good starting point for implementing BIM
strategy in public institutions. Its development highlighted the centrality of the human
factor, both as an opportunity and an obstacle, the importance of top management
support, gradual implementation, midterm wins and sharing of good examples, as
well as the connection between any phase of Lifecycle Management.
Case Studies are important to bind the strategic perspective and the concrete state of
affairs, often more problematic than any theoretical speculation. Moreover, practical
examples of BIM implementation help reflect on how to link the various stages (design,
construction, operational) and help all actors better understand each other's specific needs.
That all supports finding ways to make the transition from one to the other stage smoother
and more successful avoiding misunderstandings and loss of information.
