BIM, Value Management, Life-cycle Cost Management

Building Information Management

BIM is the life-cycle management of the built environment supported by digital technology. Unfortunately, too much emphasis has been placed upon 3-D visualization and other technology components vs. the process of life-cycle management. Consequently, the need for value management emerges.

Lean methodology is ignored by the construction sector

Job Order Contracting

While there has been a fair amount written about Lean principles, actual application in the form of an integrated construction planning, procurement, and project delivery methodology has been limited to 5% or less actual work.

Why BIM is failing.

Building Information Management

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].
