Each object has any kind of data associated
with it: properties, documents, what building
systems it is a part of, what other assets and
locations this object is affecting, related work
orders, etc.
See the real-time and historical values from
the corresponding sensors.
Jump to any location within the building using
viewpoints.
Search for locations and assets and see
through the walls (use object transparency).

Roadmap
Macro-level approach to defining how
BIM will help organization to address its
strategic challenges.
Guidelines
Detailed set of requirements specifying
how BIM will be created, validated and
maintained for Lifecycle BIM. Includes
requirements for design, construction,
handover, operation and maintenance.
Use Cases
Business workflow scenarios explaining
how BIM will be utilized.

Must Do Should Do
Description
Kaiser Permanente hired EcoDomus to help identify the BIM
Roadmap, and the workgroup has made recommendations
to Sr. Leadership to proceed with key elements to move the
program forward.
Description
KP believes that investment in a comprehensive BIM
strategy will transform how KP manages infrastructure data
and critical processes delivering better, smarter, greener
facilities for less money.

BIM Guidelines
Be Clear
Guidelines should be unambiguous:
all data and geometry requirements
clearly defined, provide examples.
1
Focus on Lifecycle
Think about BIM implementation for
all phases of facility lifecycle: not only
design and construction, but O&M
and FM as well.
2
Use Open Standards
Apply open standards where it makes
sense. Don’t blindly go with it just
because it’s free: calculate total ROI.

16. www.ecodomus.com
How to Select Use Cases
 Identify stakeholders: facility managers,
technicians, planners, energy managers, IT
group, procurement, etc.
 Each stakeholder reviews personal needs
for facility data and provides feedback.
 Consultants analyze the use case
description and come up with a set that
includes deliverables, naming conventions,
software, etc.
BIM Use Cases / Scenarios 16

FM Business Need
A business need - Use Case - “pulls”
required information from the
providers. For example, Preventative
Maintenance procedure for a Heating
Unit requires to “Check fan RPM and
compare to specification”.
Handover
FM Data Manager adds “Fan Speed”
attribute to the handover deliverables
specification.
Capital Projects
Construction Manager ensures that
“Fan Speed” attribute is collected for
a Heating Unit.
Contractor & Architect
Providers request that Manufacturer
provides “Fan Speed” attribute
values. Renames the field name as
needed.
BIM Attributes
17

18. www.ecodomus.com
Systems
Systems are groups of components that, when
connected, provide specific building services.
Subsystems, if required, may be identified using
parent-child relationship (“nested”).
Affects
Objects can be identified as affecting each other. For
example, Valve 111 is not only on a Hot Water
system, but it also affects Boiler 1. A VAV box may
affect rooms 101 and 102, etc.

BIM and BAS Integration
1) Sensors and “Internet of Things”
analytics need BIM to provide
more data about the facility.
2) Cost of BIM and BAS integration is
now affordable.
3) EcoDomus uses open standards
and proprietary APIs to establish
integrations and analysis.

About COBie
• Construction Operation Building
information exchange
• Open IFC-based international standard
• Major facility owners require it
• EcoDomus PM was the first middleware
to get COBie-compliant (2009)
• Looks easy to do at first glance (“we’ll
just fill out that Excel spreadsheet”) –
later becomes a four-letter word at some
organizations

What
What data is required: asset types,
attributes, document categories, system
levels, zone types?
How
How is the data collected: exported from
BIM, entered by subs online, on mobile
devices or on paper?
Where
Where is the data managed: in
EcoDomus PM? Excel? Revit?
Who
Who provides the data and who checks
and validates it (Responsibility Matrix)?
Who updates the model?
When
What are the
milestones for data
checking?

Quality Control
EcoDomus PM’s automated quality control
features allow for checking attributes and
documents for compliance with facility
owner’s requirements.
Optimization
EcoDomus PM and BIM Connector help
filter data to reduce unnecessary data
collection, focusing attention on the
required data.
Create Useful BIM
EcoDomus BIM and Data experts have
unmatched experience in preparing
models and datasets for the successful
handover. BIM for FM modeling has
unique requirements that most modelers
do not know, and as a result, most so-
called BIMs have limited value for FM.
Information Reuse
EcoDomus Product Library allows storing
standard product information for reusing
across projects and properties. No need to
re-enter data that is already available.
EcoDomus COBie Benefits 26

27. www.ecodomus.com

 No data validation
 File size limitations
 No bi-directional data exchange
 No lightweight 3D-based data editing
 No support
EcoDomus PM

=> better adoption by field users
 Higher quality of data
=> less rework and extra cost avoidance
 Roles / permissions module
=> secure environment
 Unique software features
=> better BIM 3D experience
 Advanced filtering by organizations/templates
=> optimized data
