A Software Suite That Can Handle All Aspects Of Asset Management

With apps for repair requests,
inspections, communication, etc.
A software suite that
can handle all aspects
of asset management.
Amsterdam (Netherlands)
contact@BIMkeeper.com

Others talk
about it….
We do it !

Why: open standards, full control and lower costs.
Keep all information of assets up to date, and meet all (legal) obligations that come
with the management of buildings. Like: long term maintenance planning, incident
management, inspecting fire equipment, energy control (or transition), etc.
BIM, Building Information
Modeling, is an important
technology that helps the
development process and
the maintenance of
buildings.
And BIMkeeper can be
used accordingly.

BIMkeeper offers you advanced webbased technology to control all processes. Store
all building information and collaborate in a safe way with stakeholders.
The 3D viewer supports all these processes and shows real time information.
For example: the status of contracts can be
shown in the transparency mode. Could
also be rooms where maintenance issues
are being solved.

BIMkeeper supports maintenance, but can also be used in the development and
renovation process. In 2013 the UK government stated that the costs of constructing
and maintenance of Public Property “should and could” go down 20%.
See BIM-level2.org /en/standards
IF: BIM was used during the whole
process, in combination with
document- and flow management &
IF information was accessible for all
stakeholders. BIMkeeper adopted these
PAS 1192 standards, offering 6D-BIM
technology: from cradle to cradle

BIMkeeper = an online collaboration platform
BIMkeeper is 100% web-based. You need only a web browser to view and share
models and all (related) information, with your partners or stakeholders. Our 3D
viewer is IFC based (open standard), so architects can use any design program.
You can use any level
of detail.
You do need a modern
device, with enough
memory and a recent
browser that supports
WebGL.

Basics: legenda
In BIMkeeper we use the words “Complex” and “Unit”.
A “Complex” is a building, with at least one unit. In the system you cannot have a
unit without a related complex. Normally a complex (for example, of apartments)
holds many units.
A ”Unit” is the smallest entity of
a complex. It could be an office floor,
an apartment, a garage box, etc.
Primarily, a unit is an object that
can be sold or rented.

Basics: how to find data
The List page offers an overview all complexes (buildings) in the database.
You can browse, page by page
Or search: city, street, type of building (industrial, school, hospital). You will very
quickly find a specific Complex, even if there are thousands in the database.
If you want to use a combination of criteria: use the Map page,
Here you can see exactly what filters are “on” and what the reusults are.

The Tiles page makes the daily
management easier.
Here you can view your own private
collection of complexes, with an overview
of al items that need your attention.
Repair requests, expiring contracts, etc.
And compliance with laws and regulations.
These dashboards can actually show any
information in the database. You can also
search within this collection .

The Map page gives you direct
access to any selection of
information in your database.
In seconds you can have an
overview of all buildings older
than 50 years with an energy
label A or B. You can store this
selection for re-use.
You can also zoom in on the
map, click on details and open
the 3D model (if present)

BIMkeeper is safe: access is role based
• All stakeholders can (should) have access.
• Administrators decide what they are allowed to see or change.
• The system is logging all actions, of all accounts.
• Validation and versioning are in place
• The status of files is always clear

A specific view and selection can easily be shared: it is a unique URL
Viewpoint = a just a unique URL You can easily send this viewpoint to a supplier (repair request)

Add information to element(s) This ‘note’ is now available in text AND in the 3D viewer
Select staircase and add a ‘note’ So you can click on an element or search in the data layer
DATA  3D VIEW

3 options for any (repair) request
Option 1:
Use our app !
This is a Cross-platform
app. Easy to install on
any device. The app is
personal (has a login)
Installation is explained
in the manual.
Fill in a title, text, make
a picture and “send”
(store in our database).

3 options for any (repair) request
Option 2:
Login to the website
and create a new
request.
After the login, we
know who you are and
the management can
contact you, to help
you out.
You can always see the
status of your request

Options for any (repair) request
Option 3:
Login to the website (any
device) and use the 3D
model. Select 1 or several
elements and click:
Exactly the same view can
be shared with anyone.
This works anywhere
(Bahrain Zallaq resort;
model on the right)

From repair request to solution
The manager of the complex assigns
the request to a supplier (work
order).
The supplier sees the exact location
and the request or complaint and
can act accordingly.
If the repair is done, an invoice can
be connected to the work order.
This guarantees 100% compliance.

Using the IFC based 3D BIM viewer
MAIN VIEWER SCREEN Left and right pane are closed: see

left pane (2) Viewer (1) and Tools (4) Right pane (details 3)

The first left tab lists all
floors of a building and
allows you to turn them on
or off. For example, when
you only want to view the
2nd floor of a building.
At the right pane you see
the details of the selection
you made on the left.
Additional information
(text, hyperlinks, files) that
is available for the specific
element or elements.

The second tab (“Type”)
shows a list of elements.
There can be multiple levels
of element types. You can
turn them on or off by level.
To hide everything except a
specific category, right click
and select “Hide others”.
You can do this for a main
category (“Glass”), or a
subcategory (all glass from a
specific brand or dimension)
left pane Viewer and Tools Right pane (details)

The tab (“Zones”) shows
elements grouped by
Zones and Groups, if this
data is in the IFC.
A zone represents a vast
collections of elements
and/or spaces.
The elements of an
apartment are such a
collection
That’s how we can
extract and view one
specific “unit” fast

Checking – technical feature
Unload map/load map: position a building on a map
Request (repair) – select an element and ask for assistance
Using the IFC based 3D BIM viewerUsing the IFC based 3D BIM viewer: TOOLS

The “Separate
floors” slider pulls
floors apart, so that
it becomes easy to
look inside.
In the left pane
“structure” you can
also turn floors on
or of, but this works
faster.
Using the IFC based 3D BIM viewer: TOOLS
The “Add objects…”
button allows to
dynamically add
additional objects
(like furniture).
To use it, first select
a surface to add an
object to.
Of course: only
available if there are
objects.

In these views, the structure of the building (walls, roofs, windows,…) is made
transparent. The sensor readings are attached to desks and spaces. The color relates
to a specific value, that can be altered easily. To toggle between viewing spaces and
the structure of the building, click on the “Spaces” icon
Sensor value(s) and statistics

Sensors feed “real time”
information to our database.
The viewer collects the latest
information, relates it to the right
building and the right room.
Statistics give a clear insight in the
performance of buildings and
spaces now and in the past .
You decide on the colors.The manager of the building received a warning:
bad air quality in room 01.05.

There are many different
kinds of sensors. We use LORA
(long range) sensors.
We developed our own
internet gateway, so there are
no 3rd party dependencies
In bold and in the graph, the selected
active Measurements.
You can zoom in on the statistics and
select a specific period.

Primarily this demo shows an interactive map with
the location of all properties.
The search button takes you quickly to any
destination on earth
Main function on this page is building queries. For
example show all buildings
with energy label G & F.
Or all buildings with
pending requests.
Any selection can be
saved and reused.
Queries and filters: show results on map

First select all accommodations that are
accessible for Wheelchairs. Just click
Next: check availability (rent / sale).
Select an apartment & zoom to see the details.
Where is the entrance, the elevator, etc.
Wheelchair accessible: show on map

Show al buildings with
asbestos on a map.
Than select one and zoom in.
Now you can see a preview of
the 3D model. Open it to find
the the exact location of the
asbestos.
All buildings with asbestos : show on map

Compliance with laws & regulations
You can set routines
for a periodical
inspections of all
important aspects of
Fire Safety.
For example inspect
sprinklers every year,
fire alarm every
month.
Work assignments for
inspections are
automatically
generated.

The assignment to
perform a check is
automatically send
to the right supplier:
the one with a contract
for these inspections.
The only thing an
inspector needs is a cell
phone (and an account).

This page offers a status overview of:
- Repair requests
- Upcoming inspections
- Contracts with an upcoming expire date
- Inspections that reported an issue
- Anything else that is important to you
The “Tiles” page is mostly used to view “my”
selection of buildings and their status.

People that are looking for a
new house fill in several
criteria and search for the
right price, location, number
of bedrooms and the like.
Results are often shown on a
map, and a picture of the
building is used to give
information on the position.
Floorplans will be available
and sometimes some simple
3D presentation is supported.
How were apartments sold or rented ?
With BIMkeeper,
you can do better.

There is a fast toggle
between the BIMview
and the transparency
mode, that holds extra
information:, like:
“available=red”
All specifications of a
selected apartment are
directly at hand, like
floorplans and 3D view.
We took of the roof to
look inside…
What we do: connect sales data to spaces


Show spaces larger than
200 square meters.
Show …….
In tansparency mode: the status of rental
contracts with their upcoming expiration
dates:
What we do: connect any data to spaces

Click on any space and open the sidebar on the right
side. All details of the space and information on the
current rental contract are now at hand. You may need
to separate the floors of the building using the slider to
reach some inside spaces.
All details just 1 click away !

1. Before the BIM modeling process of a complex can start, it is necessary to gather all
necessary “input”. For example: floor plans, drawings, pictures, point clouds, etc.
2. If the input is complete, the BIM modeler starts to work. If he is ready the new files are
uploaded. The corresponding IFC-file, makes the model directly available in the 3D viewer.
3. In the PM tool work on a complex is called: a case. If the work of the modeler is accepted,
the files are exported to the asset management environment. Case closed.
Integrated Project Management tool
If you already had an
existing 3D model: use
the viewer for revision
requests. See next slides

Report issues directly
from an existing 3D
model. Select the
elements involved and
make a request to the
BIM modeler.
You can add multiple
selections, floorplans,
remarks. For example:
remove this inside wall.
Assign any issue to an
existing or a new ‘case’.
Revisions

The PM Tool gives you
full control. Nothing can
go wrong, because all
versions are saved.
A full version history is
always kept.
Finalized submissions by
the BIM modeler are
directly visible in our
viewer. If accepted, they
are transferred to the
right Complex. There is
now a revised version 2.

the PM-tool.
AND:
At all stages you
can communicate
with all parties
involved in the
process.
For example give
extra instructions,
or feedback to the
BIM modeler.

The house configurator
allows potential buyers
or tenants to configure
their future home.
Choose a dormer or a
porch, select a different
interior layout, build
expansions, etc.
The floorplans change
accordingly, on the fly.
And also the pricing is
displayed immediately.
Configure your house

House configurator 3D and 2D
EEvery change in the 3D
viewer will update the 2D
and the pricing on the fly. A
user can save his favorites.

Permissions can be managed on different levels.
From the level of a whole complex down to an individual file.
The system is flexible enough to adapt to any organisation structure.
From a family business to a multinational.
Access control list – roles and according rights
Access is granted to a group of
employees with the same role.
Look at a group and find out
what the rights are: complexes,
units, technical, financial, etc.
And on a file level: read, update,
create, archive or delete.
