1 Back to Where We Once Belonged FM Global s road to SlimBIM By Thomas A. Gay Assistant Vice President FM Global - Engineering Plan Services Past Chair Board of Direction buildingsmart alliance Vice Chair buildingsmart International User Group

2 Not Your Average CAD/BIM User

3 The Factory Mutual Insurance Company the company FM Global provides comprehensive global commercial and industrial property insurance, engineering-driven underwriting and risk management solutions, groundbreaking property loss prevention research and prompt, professional claims handling.

4 The Factory Mutual Insurance Company the company Based in Johnston, RI, USA with more than 5000 employees operating in more than 120 countries, FM Global offers a unique combination of insurance products and engineering services seamlessly around the globe, and through a single point of contact. FM Global offers products and services that can overcome global risk management challenges, and accommodate any/all commercial property insurance and protection needs

5 The Factory Mutual Insurance Company the history Founded in 1835 by Zachariah Allen, a prominent textile mill owner, the idea that property improvements would minimize the chance of fire loss was virtually unheard of at the time. But to Allen and his partners, a proactive approach to preventing losses made good economic sense.

6 The Factory Mutual Insurance Company the history 179 years later FM Global, a Fortune 1000 Company, has emerged as an international property insurance and lossprevention engineering leader with market-leading capacity and coverage.

7 The Work

8 The facilities we insure vary in size, scope, location and occupancy

9 The services provided are varied 1500GPM FIRE PUMP TEST PRESSURE (PSI) FLOW (GPM) Test Data

10 The documentation extensive!

12 All in pursuit of understanding: Construction Occupancy Protection Exposure COPE

13 But No Longer Business as Usual

14 The building industry, in general, and FM Global, specifically, is faced with a need for change and future requirements are for not just construction but improved costing, functional and performance efficiency!!

15 FM Global has always recognized the need to evolve with varied but consistent documentation throughout our history

16 and Our Clients are Focused on the Future

17 The Factory Mutual Insurance Company the Challenge Respond to Client capabilities/needs in regards to technology Consume information from any source (Client/Brokers/AEC) Combine information from multiple disciplines (CAD/BIM/GIS/Images) Start our process with Virtual Inspections Convey that information in a standard coordinated format Export information back to drawings/models/maps Reduce Operating Costs for better Mutual Performance

18 How about going from this method

22 Highlighting Recommendations for Improvement

23 But it may not be quite enough Our Engineering is improving, our Clients are becoming more sophisticated and everyone is asking harder questions.

24 The Problem

25 FM Global s Standard Drawing has evolved over our almost 180 year history

26 Our Clients challenged us to continue to improve Virtual Design, Construction & Ownership The road to BIM does not appear to be as easy

46 So why Building Information Modeling? Why buildingsmart? And why a National BIM Standard?

47 BIM is, BIM is not, BIM can be The Business Value of a National BIM Standard

48 BIM is definitely not a High Performance Building Hazard Mitigation or Planning Building Enclosure Technology Building Safety Codes or Standards Facility Management or Operations Finance, Insurance or Real Estate Standards or Metrics Social, Economic or Environmental Performance...It s not even, as many people would describe it, 3d

49 BIM promises to be all of those things!

50 The BIM software industry, much like the CAD software industry of 30years ago, has been discipline specific with very little interoperability built in. FM Global alone (and this is not uncommon) requires multiple software platforms to service our client base

51 True BIM Authoring Autodesk Revit Architecture Autodesk Revit Structure Autodesk Revit MEP Autodesk AutoCAD Architecture Autodesk AutoCAD MEP Autodesk AutoCAD Structural Detailing Graphisoft ArchiCAD

52 CAD/3d Modeling Autodesk AutoCAD Autodesk Inventor + Fusion Bentley MicroStation Informatix MicroGDS Avia Scan2CAD IMSI TurboCAD Google SketchUp Eos Systems PhotoModeler Autodesk Photofly (now called 123D Catch)

53 BIM Analysis/Viewing Autodesk Navisworks Manage Autodesk Navisworks Freedom Autodesk Quantity Takeoff Autodesk Revit Architecture Viewer Tekla BIMsight Solibri Model Viewer NIST IFC File Analyzer

54 Presentation/Viewing Autodesk 3ds Max Design Composite (Film compositing and visual effects add-on) Backburner (Render farm utility add-on) FBX (file import/export utility) Autodesk Showcase (Interactive 3d presentation tool) Graphisoft Virtual Building Explorer Graphisoft BIM Explorer Autodesk SketchBook Designer (illustration and markup) RasterEx Rx Highlight Autodesk Design Review Autodesk DWG True View Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended

55 all of that work to convert from CAD all of that software to work with clients all at a $$$$$ to Purchase, Maintain, Train & Operate all for the lack of a solid and fully implemented suite of standards!

56 The Solution

57 The GIS Industry on the other hand does not suffer from such issues. FM Global uses only 2 GIS Software Suites: Cadcorp SIS ESRI ArcInfo Implemented under the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) Open GIS Standards like WMS, WFS, CityGML, etc.

59 Enter NBIMS! The National Building Information Modeling Standard It s foundational core: buildingsmart International s IFC It s implemented definitions: COBie SPie IFCxml and more.

78 The Possibilities the road to SlimBIM (and more)

79 BIM is definitely Cool

80 BIM is Design and Construction

81 BIM is Design/Requirements Validation

82 BIM is Automated Data Gathering

83 BIM is Supporting Views of Data

84 BIM is Focused Views by defined requirements

85 BIM is Consistent Analysis by Practitioners

86 BIM is Information to support the Business Case COBie -

87 BIM is a complimentary source to other technologies (GIS, CAD, Imaging, etc)

88 BIM is our Plan for the Future

89 BIM is Innovation.
