LEAN Construction Deliver is the primary challenge to BIM adoption. Focus upon technology will do little to improve construction or facilities management outcomes. The solution to improved life-cycle management of the build environment lies within a greater focus upon improving competencies and business processes.

Level of development (LOD) relative to the life-cycle management of the built environment (BIM) should have a solid framework relative to ONTOLOGY. While the definition of “life-cycle” has many permutations, and is likely to undergo ongoing improvement, the relationship to LOD needs to be developed in parallel.
