BIM (Building Information Modeling) is the efficient management of the life-cycle of the built environment supported by digital technology. The most significant benefit is total-cost-of-ownership management throughout the life-cycle of a physical asset. O&M costs far exceed those of any previous phase, averaging 70% to 80% of total life-cycle costs.

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. Ontology is the standardized usage/definition of terms and their associated inter-relationships.
