Benefits of BIM / Digital Twin
For Facilities Management
Facility managers are trained to use equipment in 3D
Before they see it "live"
Response time is reduced
During an emergency service request
Space management is streamlined
Empty spaces can be color coded for fast visualization of vacancies for potential occupants
Significantly reduced time and effort finding related documents and information
To perform Preventative Maintenance after completion of building, leading to greater overall cost saving for facility
Visual inventory can be performed
Allowing greater insight into the location and condition of assets
3D objects can be “redlined”
By facilities maintenance personnel and the appropriate JPG can be attached to a WO, allowing for less confusion as to the asset to be worked on
Project information can be collected and turned over in a standardized format
Allowing for easy integration with other project databases
Greening of building is accomplished
Through integration with Building Automation Systems, allowing greater visibility to energy efficiency
Preventive maintenance jobs can be created
As information about equipment is specified / installed, even if the building is not complete
