Fastighetsförvaltning med BIM : En studie kring vilka fördelar implementering av en digital tvilling kan medföra fastighetsbranschen

This study deals with the implementation of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in Facility Management (FM). Within the construction sector, many actors have realized the value that BIM can bring in the design and production phase. Using BIM has been able to reduce both the cost and work hours required through better efficiency and synchronization. Whilst BIM is common today during the earlier phases it is often left unused later in FM, which can be regarded as wasted potential. Instead, the material is handed over in the form of blueprints in paper form orin PDF format, which can be difficult to keep track of and sometimes even difficult to access. Applying a digital platform like BIM in FM is something that has been discussed and considered for some time, but few studies have been done in the area and the practical use is still small. Muchindicates great potential and value in introducing BIM in FM. The report is based on interviews with mainly technical managers and technology and IT developers. Respondents were deliberately selected from large real estate companies, as they were expected to be the most knowledgeable in the subject. To summarize the results from the interviews, there is room for great development potential in the areas; documentation management, drawing management and communication. In addition, a better overview of the property and its status and constituent components requested among the trustees. To be able to follow, monitor and evaluate errands would also lead to major efficiency improvements, as this today is considered a problematic and time-consuming part of FM.
