Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology is changing the way buildings are designed and built but having less of an impact on their operation and maintenance. This despite the facts that 90% of a building's life cycle cost, and thus one could say 90% of its opportunity cost, occur after construction is complete; and that BIM, when used correctly, delivers significant life cycle cost and operational benefits. As beneficial as it may be, however, facility management (FM) as a whole has been slow to adopt BIM.

Think you have good excuses for not trying Building Information Modeling (BIM) yet? I've heard them all: "It's too hard." "It's too expensive." "I don't need it." But those are just excuses, not reasons. In fact, I bet you're more ready than you think you are. Here are five reasons why.

CMAA Leadership Forum

The Bentley LEARNing Conference

Southern California Facilities Expo

Hospitality Design Expo

RECON: The Global Retail Real Estate Convention

The Blue Book Building & Construction Network Showcase

SAME Joint Engineer Training Conference & Expo

Oh yes, it's that time again when the red carpet gets deployed. There is frenzy in the Revit community; twitter goes into hyper drive & the bloggers go mad (including me), as Autodesk serve up the latest greatest version of Revit for us to use & abuse on our BIM projects.
