BIM for Facility Management Roadmap

Transform Paper-Based Building Records into a Digital Backbone for Smarter Facility Operations

 

Most commercial buildings still rely on paper-based 2D drawings and disconnected spreadsheets to manage their assets.

This makes maintenance reactive, recordkeeping inconsistent, and decision-making slow.

The BIM for Facility Management Roadmap provides a step-by-step guide to help you transition from legacy documentation to a connected digital asset management system built around Building Information Modeling (BIM).

This roadmap shows how to digitize existing drawings, create intelligent 3D models using Autodesk Revit and Civil 3D, enrich them with asset data, and integrate everything with facility management and analytics platforms such as Power BI, Planon, or Archibus.

 

 Inside This Guide, You’ll Learn How To:

Audit and digitize your paper-based building records.

Create accurate 3D as-is BIM models for your facility and site.

Add key maintenance, warranty, and performance data to each asset.

Connect your BIM model to FM software for real-time maintenance tracking.

Build dashboards for predictive maintenance, energy management, and cost control.

Develop a long-term strategy toward Digital Twin operations.
