The adoption of building information models (BIM) has provided quantifiable business benefits by helping improve collaboration and reduce the risk of budget and schedule overruns during the design and construction phase of building projects. Many (including myself) see the potential for even greater benefits of BIM modeling to owners during the operations and maintenance phase of a building.
As a first step Autodesk Labs is hosting a free technology technology preview of the Maximo® Integration for Autodesk® Revit® 2013 products that helps extend the value of BIM models into the operations phase of the building lifecycle. Attributed data about building assets, developed during the building design and construction phases, can be published directly into Maximo during commissioning or at building “handover,” thus supporting more immediate and efficient asset management once the building is occupied. The asset data can also be exported in the COBie data specification. In addition, the BIM/3D asset data can be viewed inside Maximo, in context with Maximo applications and processes.
