Reduce cost, risk and improving quality of handover by defining what information is required.
Provide designers and supply chains with unambiguous and machine-auditable instructions.
Improve the quality of information from supply chain through standardised responses in submissions.
Information Capture & Classification
Capture as installed information from specialist supply chain members who are not using BIM.
Ensure key information for fire safety or decarbonisation is provided in an auditable manner.
Automate the classification of assets and systems so they can be connected and found more easily.
Digital Product Data & O&M Production
Reduce cost and risk by creating digital product data once and reusing it many times to create digital O&Ms.
Automate comparison of similar products by key attributes and support records of change/substitution.
Build an inventory of which projects used which manufacturers' products and mandatory occurrence reporting.
Enable manufacturers to know where their products are installed, be responsible for their information - and keep it current.
Validation & Data Quality
Automatically check that the data being provided (inc. CoBie) is delivered against what was asked for.
Return errors to the author, explaining what needs correcting, reducing Information Managers' workload.
Enable all parties to validate their individual work progressively, to ensure 100% data coordination.
Information Federation & Integration
Gather, store, and manage building information which may have been defined using the Information Requirements Tools, allowing automated testing and validation.
Integrate validated models, spreadsheets, 360 photos and documents.
Improve the process of H&S/O&M information production to automate validation, improve hand-over and findability
Ensure missing information is updated without the need for expensive authoring software.
Create a complete as-built (data) model that reflects what has been installed, what is connected to which systems and connected H&S/O&M (smart) documentation
Digital Twin & Record of Portfolio
Create an initial Digital Record of a whole portfolio of buildings from a simple spreadsheet.
Assimilate H&S/O&M documents and classify/tag/group them for easier searching.
Identify risks and report on the condition of the assets/systems that are protecting people.
Integrate BIMs, PIMs, asset lists, surveys, works, PPMs and sensors to form a simple digital twin.
Connect performance requirements to the systems that support the facility, monitor and generate alerts and actions where necessary
Maintenance & Response to Issues
Respond to reported issues with a clear instruction to suitably competent people and manage progress.
Reduce the time/cost to resolve an issue by providing more reliable information about assets and spares.
Provide maintenance people with site-specific hazards before they arrive, so they can mitigate risks.
Capture information about replacement products and/or works they have done to update the AIM.
Work Instruction Compliance & Planning
Reduce the risk of penalties/prosecution by maintaining a master library of activities, applied to assets and systems.
Plan, optimise and schedule tasks such as Inspection and Maintenance Inc. modelling competent staffing requirements.
Create coordinated data (e.g. SFG20) to populate CMMS applications like Maximo, QFM, FSI and Planon
Retain historic versions of procedures, should they be required in a legal action.
As-built models, surveying and applying AI to improve "findability"
Reduce the time/cost of surveying existing/recently completed buildings, to create asset lists of what is installed.
Enable experts in fabric and MEP to work remotely on 360 photos to tag assets and their condition.
Establish a unique asset, against which all future inspections (virtual or physical) are recorded.
Create training material for new staff and developing machine-learning and AI solutions.
