- Abstract:
Despite the successful project delivery for BIM in facilities management, limited investigations have focused on BIM and Operation and Maintenance (O&M) integration. Although this phase accounts for approximately 60% of total life cycle costs, making it crucial for realising good return on investment (ROI). It was found that one of the main reasons for slow adoption of BIM in O&M is the absence of clear information requirements, making it challenging to create asset registers. Therefore, the purpose of this work is to identify the information requirements for integrating BIM with O&M. This research deploys a combination of a systematic literature review (SLR) and expert verification (via questionnaire) to identify the information requirements. The combination of the information extracted from the SLR with their validation by 21 experts resulted in identifying 21 information requirements (IRs) grouped into five categories: general IRs, strategic IRs, operational IRs, commercial IRs and continuous improvement IRs. These IRs provide a fundamental framework for O&M practitioners and researchers to promote the implementation of BIM in O&M.
