This paper presents the analysis of Building Information Model usage in Facilities Management. The main Facility Management aspects and problems are analyzed and advantages and disadvantages of Building Information Model are evaluated, opinions about BIM development and use in facilities management. The effectiveness of BIM use in the Facilities Management is analyzed with the help of SWOT analysis. The guidelines to the Facility Management company for using BIM are created.

The use of Building information modelling for the design and construction phase of a building has been thoroughly looked into by researchers and practitioners and there is evidence to support that it is beneficial for reducing cost, time and improving communication. Yet the potential use of BIM for the operational and management phase (Facilities management), besides maintenance schedules and equipment information and location, is still not clearly identified. The UK Government, institutional clients and major private owners are now demanding for BIM for new construction and major refurbishment but given that 70-75% of the current UK building stock will still be in use in 2050, a significant part of the existing facilities will not have an information model till the next major refurbishment, creating a major gap in the built environment. This paper presents a new framework aimed at creating information models for facilities management requiring minimal BIM skills and discusses the impact that models created for the operational stage would have on the whole life cycle of a building.

This study investigates the feasibility and benefits of transferring data between Autodesk Revit (used for building information modeling (BIM)) and BUILDER SMS (used for sustainable facility management (SFM)). Two data transfer methods were evaluated using a case study; one involved entirely manual data transfer, the other a combination of manual and automatic. Of the data transfer methods evaluated, the manual/automated hybrid was determined to be the best option, especially when regular updates are envisioned. The case study produced an enhanced BIM model that can be used to support sustainable facility management, called here an SFM-enhanced BIM model. An integration workflow is proposed for efficiently creating future SFM-enhanced BIM models. A focus group of facilities management professionals evaluated the case study BIM model. The focus group was most interested in the visualization capabilities—e.g., filtered views for condition assessments—and the ability to view the BIM model on a tablet/mobile device during on-site operation and maintenance activities.

To maintain and develop neccesary services which support and improve the effectiveness of a university campus is a challenge, especially in Vietnam where facilities management (FM) are currently done manually and inefficiently. The application of Building Information Model (BIM) to assist the planning and management of university’s assets is addressed in this paper. The concepts, key issues in deployment FM using BIM are provided, for Di An campus of Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology as a case study. Recommendations for futher activities toward a safe and efficient working environment are also given.
