BIM for Facility Management: Challenges and Research Gaps
Abstract: This writing
presents research gaps in the area of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in
Facility Management (FM) industry, and identifies practical challenges that
facility management professionals are facing in utilizing BIM. Although this
issue, BIM for Facility Management, has gained attention both in literature and
practice, and it is highly demanded in FM industry, still it is far away from
effective implementation. It is not clear for facility manager whether BIM is
helpful to accelerate the process or it is a cost effective solution, and what
skills are required for them. The key for effective BIM implementation in FM
industry is to enhance collaboration among different parties in project
lifecycle. However, still there is a doubt about the importance of FM in
Construction industry. In other words, construction does not understand FM.
Furthermore, there are issues over interoperability and data exchange. Thus, to
assist BIM implementation, it is required to prove the correctness of benefits,
uses, and challenges identified in the literature. This paper uses an intensive
literature review and highlights the potential research issues in terms of BIM
for FM to assist effective implementation of BIM in facility management phase
of projects.
