Most people who use BIM will agree that it stands for Building Information Model/ Modeling. However; the management part is still important. Let me explain!
The model dimension enables architects, engineers and different trades to collaborate on one model as their single source of truth. At the end of the project, the completed model should represent a true digital twin. Essentially; “a virtual representation of the construction, linking geometry and information” (https://www.i-scoop.eu/bim-building-information-modeling-management/)?
The management dimension takes BIM a step further. It takes the model with all the data and information it carries to the construction site, enabling efficiencies with the building process and dramatically increasing the possibilities for building operation. Think about maintenance for example.?
BIM used to be the platform for the AEC (Architects, Engineers and Construction)? players only. With the management dimension added we invite a new player in - AECO. with the ‘O’ standing for Operation.?
