The Metrics of BIM – The Manage the Built Environment

Building Information Management

While an important component, the 3D component of BIM has been a very unfortunate distraction. Here are examples of metrics associated with the life-cycle management of the built environment: Annualized Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) per building per gross area = Rate per square foot. Custodial Costs per square foot. Energy Usage.

Why BIM is failing.

Building Information Management

3D visualization is not BIM. BIM is the process of efficient life-cycle management supported by digital technology. BIM requires a more robust linkage (as is the case with JOC) between construction delivery and life-cycle management process and technology, to achieve a similar gain in momentum. 46453858-Asset-Lifecyle-Model[1].

Critical Issues and BIM – NIBS buildingSMART alliance conference – January 7-11, 2013

Building Information Management

The efficient life-cycle management of the built environment will not happen until change management is accelerated. Efficient construction delivery methods (IPD – integrated project delivery, JOC – job order contracting), cloud computing, and BIM are all integral components. Friday: BIM Academic Education Symposium.

BIM, Value Management, Life-cycle Cost Management

Building Information Management

BIM is the life-cycle management of the built environment supported by digital technology. It is also defined as the total cash flow of the project from the conceptual stage to the disposal stage (Bennett, 2003). LCC enables a practical economic comparison of the alternatives, in terms of both the present and future costs.
