Optimize Asset Life Cycle with AI-Driven Support
We define and optimize operational processes, establishing key information exchange requirements to ensure smooth, efficient project execution. Our use cases enhances collaboration, reduces risks, and drive success at every stage.

We enable the capture, specification and exchange of best practices.
Throughout the design, construction, and operation phases, information exchange requirements must be clearly defined for each BIM use case. Using the Information Delivery Manual (IDM) methodology developed by buildingSMART, we define operational processes and corresponding information exchange needs. This precise definition of information flow between project participants enables effective collaboration and ensures efficient, error-free data exchange.

Common Language
We aim to create a common language for BIM/VDC applications, ensuring a shared understanding across the digital value chain from client to user.

openBIM Workflow Enabler
The UCM is a key tool within buildingSMART International's (bSI) toolkit, designed to capture, specify, and exchange industry best practices, fully supporting the openBIM Core Workflow.

Methodology
The BIM method adds significant value in planning, construction, and operation. To fully benefit, the required information must be available at every phase of a building's lifecycle.

International Standards
International standards like ISO CEN and others ensure consistency and quality, providing frameworks for efficient, standardized processes in global projects.
