CHANCELED
In building industry digitalization is today one of the big challenges to improve efficiency and effectiveness over the whole building life cycle. Building Information Modeling (BIM) is accepted to be the most promising approach to do so. By using BIM as a new paradigm for introducing holistic business processes in model based collaboration between all participants in building industry, goals like enhanced cost accuracy, cost reductions and faster project cycles will be achieved.
While most of the current BIM initiatives focuses on the planning and construction phase, our research project named BIM-FM of Beuth Hochschule für Technik Berlin and Hochschule für Technik und Wirtschaft Berlin (both are Universities of Applied Sciences) addresses the Facility Management and operational phase of the building life cycle as well as with the usage of Semantic Web Technologies in this particular area.
