3 Course Description BIM in the Retail Capital Facility Industry: Benefits, Challenges and Adoption Advances in building information modeling (BIM) technology is transforming design, construction and facility management processes of retail facilities. There are several benefits of using this technology, and equally as many challenges. Understanding both will help you adopt these new tools in a manner that is most effective for your organization.

4 Note to attendees: I hate to be bulleted to death during a PowerPoint presentation. On the other hand I like detailed handouts to refer to later. So the discussions and stories I will share today will generally follow this outline. I will not speak to every bullet point! Kevin Connolly

5 BIM in the Retail Capital Facility Industry Benefits, Challenges and Adoption Presenter: Kevin J. Connolly, AIA, President Connolly Architects, Inc. Moderator: Matthew L. Whelan, President/CEO W Services Group, LLC.

6 Learning Objectives What is BIM How BIM improves efficiencies for the FM Across the Facility s Lifecycle Understand the Challenges that lay ahead Learn about an Adoption Process

7 What is BIM?

8 BIM is a Product Definition: A Building Information Model is a digital representation of physical and functional characteristics of a facility. --National Institute of Building Sciences

9 BIM is a Process Definition: Building Information Modeling is a set of processes to produce, communicate and analyze building models. --Chuck Eastman, BIM Handbook

10 A Box of Tools Project planning, programming, design Analysis, simulation, forecasting Communication, visualization, draw Model, data and information checking Cost estimating and scheduling Construction Management Construction, pre-fabrication, modularization Facility space, asset and maintenance management Building automation systems And much more

11 BIM can improve efficiencies for the FM Across the Facility s Lifecycle

12

13 Planning Phase Strategic, physical and operational data Prototypical or specific project requirements Budgeting and financial planning Road-mapping and Scheduling Space programming Site criteria, evaluation and selections Functional scenario forecasting

14 Planning Phase The Facility Manager s role Design Criteria Maintenance and Mechanical room requirements MEP requirements FFE&M requirements Spatial requirements, equipment access

15 Planning Phase The Facility Manager s BIM role An FM Model What do you want to see in the model to check? What do you want the FM model to include? (Layer combinations and LoD&D s)

16 Planning Phase The Facility Manager s BIM role Facility Information Specification What assets are important? What locational data do you want? What is your naming conventions? What data and documents do you need for each asset? What data formats are needed? XLS, IFC and COBie standards

17 Design Phase Prototype and Site specific Design (authoring) Constructability and maintainability studies Visioning and reporting 4D phasing Analysis Sustainability Cost/benefit analysis Automated design checking Use and process simulation

18 Design Phase The Facility Managers BIM role Participate in design reviews, Functional checks access to panels, clearance of valves etc. Check the FM model (and use it) Check the Information and data formats

19 Construction Phase Virtual construction to correct errors prior to physical construction 4D modeling (time and schedule animation) Cost estimating 3D control during construction On-site logistics Safety planning Off-site pre-fabrication As-constructed modeling Supply chain management

20 Construction Phase The Facility Manager s BIM role Request and test the FM model during construction Receive and check final as-built model Request, test and use data during construction Perform a data punchlist

21 Facility Management Phase Hit the ground running Maintenance management with a 3D reference Space and move management Leasing and operations management Asset location tracking Warranty tracking Materials lifecycle budgeting Cleaning budgeting

22 Facility Management Phase The Future Uses of BIM and other Data Building automation & Energy management Disaster preparedness Building Sensors and Predictive maintenance Integration with GIS Spatial Data management Mobile tools Internet of Things Big Data

23 Understand what the Challenges are

24 Challenges to Change Personal Social/Cultural Process change Business Support Legal Concerns

25 The Top Ten Barriers to BIM (Journal of Engineering and Architecture, March 2014) BIM users 1. Doubts about ROI 2. Scale of Cultural Change 3. Cost of Training 4. Cost of Software 5. Lack of Supply Chain Buy-in 6. Other Competing Initiatives 7. Lack of Senior Management Support 8. Lack of Technical Literacy 9. Staff Resistance 10. Legal Uncertainties Non-BIM users 1. Lack of Supply Chain buy-in 2. Scale of Cultural Change 3. Cost of Software 4. Lack of Technical Literacy 5. Legal Uncertainties 6. Staff Resistance 7. Cost of Training 8. Doubts about ROI 9. Other Competing Initiatives 10. Lack of Senior Management Support

26 The future is already here. It's just not very evenly distributed. --William Gibson

27 An Adoption Process

28 Capital Facility Industry Research Assign research team member(s) Focused or general knowledge Include entire facility industry s trends Software industry status Similar organization's case studies Report: Findings and recommendations

29 Assessment Set up Assessment/planning team Your organizational background Mission, goals, strategies Business drivers Operational process Internal assessment Capabilities, status, constraints Business culture Performance analysis and measurements Internal BIM maturity Key partners

30 Strategic Planning Alignment of business goals with BIM objectives and uses General advancement strategy Detailed BIM roadmap phased and prioritized High level organization-wide roadmap

31 Tactical Planning Review BIM Vision and Objectives Identify BIM uses Create Processes Describe Information needs Define necessary Infrastructure Define Personnel requirements Align Business systems Develop a detailed business case and implementation plan

32 Contract Requirements Prototypical Models Create BIM guidelines and standards BIM execution plan template Develop Project policies and procedures Revise Procurement systems Update standard contracts Do Organization-wide status check

33 Internal Implementation (done simultaneous to Contract Requirements) Software and hardware modifications Process definition and associated financial and operational changes Check with legal Personnel reorganization and training Possible workplace changes

34 Specific Project Planning Define special opportunities, conditions, constraints Customize contract requirements Complete the BIM execution plan Orient and train new team members Test software interoperability among in and out of house team members

35 Project Execution Validate data, content and design Monitor Project Progress against goals Monitor Project Process Continued training for new team members

36 Evaluation Obtain continuous feedback during and after project Develop and ongoing Improvement loop

37 Wrap Up and Questions BIM is a Product, a Process and a Set of Tools The Facility Management Team must work in lockstep with the Facility Development Team, Business Culture must change; Everyone must be in the same future, Create a purposeful adoption process that includes your entire organization.
