Having BIM models developed all the way up to 6D defines the ultimate use of Building Information Modeling to its fullest potential. BIM Models representing the finished construction accurate in 3D along with the object level information such as specifications, warranty, operation and maintenance details are 6D.
BIM models with 6D information are used to integrate either directly or indirectly with an existing Facility Management system to feed the required data in the right format.
Facility Information
The amount of information incorporated into the models at this stage is of various kinds and is more complex than 3d, 4d or 5d. It is important for the BIM teams to work directly with the facility management teams to understand the data formats and the level of detail required. During the operation and maintenance of the project, this data will help to monitor the building performance and also the carry out the maintenance activities as per the FM Manual.
Integrating BIM with FM
Project Facility Management involves several departments to carryout activities such as space management, operations management, asset management etc requiring different project information in various formats. Currently 3rd party tools are being used to help migrate BIM data to the existing FM system. Bi-directional data link between BIM models and the FM system will benefit the project team in many ways.
