The document discusses Building Information Modeling (BIM) and its implications for facilities management (FM). It provides definitions of BIM and examines its potential benefits, including improved multidisciplinary collaboration and "operational clash detection" to resolve issues. However, it also notes risks if FM fails to change its culture and remains focused only on technical aspects. The document advocates that FM professionals adopt a BIM approach to help shift conversations beyond just the technical and office environment to consider broader social and environmental impacts.

What is BIM? • An emerging technology (Succar, 2008) • A 3D based information system (Arayici et al, 2011) • A process of generating, storing, managing, exchanging and sharing building information (Eadie et al, 2013) • BIM is a collaborative way of working underpinned by the digital technologies (Gov.uk, 2012) • BIM gets people and information working together (RICS, 2014) • Data as a ‘living asset’?

- 21. • To walk right to the front of the queue… • …and change the shape of the conversation for the right reasons? A ‘Trojan Horse’ for FM?
- 22. Wait a minute. Sound familiar? • Structural engineers: “we’re always left out of the conversation, or they come to us last…” • Landscape architects: “we’re always left out of the conversation until it’s too late and our budget has been cut…” • Quantity surveyors: etc etc…

- 26. Risks and challenges • Exposing an (un)intelligent client or their (un)intelligent FM representative • ‘Decision densities’ and bottlenecks BIM does not solve these. It moves them • Resourcing battles we aren’t able to win • FM becomes entrenched (again) as a technical discipline… if it ever managed to convince organisations it was anything more…
- 27. Time & effort: maintain current time effort
- 28. Time & effort: a BIM approach time effort
- 29. Beyond the office - aspirational • Workscapes • Felstead image © i.imgur.com
- 30. What difference do you see?
- 31. Three key take-aways • Less technical, more social • ‘Operational clash detection’ is FM’s contribution. Tool up • Don’t expect an invite to the existing conversation. Change the conversation
- 32. One last thought “The first revolution is when you change your mind about how you look at things, and see there might be another way to look at it that you have not been shown. What you see later on is the results of that…” (Gil Scott-Heron, 1982)
