How did I get into Geographic Information Management?
How did I get into Engineering / Asset Information Management & BIM?
Data
Source(s)
Essentially it has all been about… DATA
Sorry wrong one
Or lack of it. And the processes behind it.
Essentially it has all been about… DATA
BIM is about project and asset data management.

• For all asset types – buildings and infrastructure
Overview to BIM
• What is BIM?
Related Terms you should know
• Depends on your focus
1. Virtual Design and Construction (VDC)
2. Digital Construction
3. Digital Engineering
• April 2016 for BIM Level 2 (April 2017 for Scotland)• What is Level 3 BIM?

• Cross-discipline collaboration
• Standard methods and procedures
• Digital Plan of Works (DPoW)
• Enabling tools, workflows and validation
• Exchange formats and standards
• Information provision is contracted
• Information / data is a commodity

• BIM is NOT all about technology
• But, technology is an enabler and vital…
o For collaboration
o For data validation
o For security
o For workflow (processes)
o Resilience / business continuity
• Common Data Environment (CDE) (more on these later)

Whole-Life Asset Management
Physical Assets – All Kinds
Capex Focus
• Define asset
• Create asset
• Rebuild Asset
• Redevelop Asset
• Decommission Asset
• Create value
Opex Focus
• Enhance Asset performance
• Improve availability
• Manage Assets
• Manage user/occupier
• Maintain / improve assets
• Predict asset performance

The Challenges We Face
• We need to consider Whole Life Cost or Total Expenditure (TotEx)

BIM in Context to Asset Management
• We need to consider our assets’ (or facilities’) Whole Life

Unlocking Data
for the asset’s whole life
Data for the Public Good
Recommendations:
A Digital Framework – for secure sharing of infrastructure data
A National Digital Twin – a digital twin of Britain’s Infrastructure to help plan, predict and understand our assets
A Digital Framework Task Group – to provide coordination of key players

People-Centric
• In economics, a commodity is a marketable item produced to satisfy wants or needs
• The client often knows their ‘wants’
• The challenge we have is the client (employer) might not know their needs!
• Information Management / Governance is often misunderstood
Information as a Commodity
Adding Value

Sorry wrong thing

Sorry, wrong again
I meant, Taxonomy
• Taxonomy (general) is the practice and science of classification of things or concepts, including the principles that underlie such classification
• Classifications in Biology and Zooology 1623, credited to Carl Linnaeus
• The Buzz’s are Ontologies and Semantics. Nice (!)
• Agreed frameworks used in IT before the 1960s
Taxonomy, Semantics, Ontologies
• Agree what we call things - taxonomy
• Agree how we describe what things mean - semantics
• Agree the concepts, definition, categories, properties, and relations of things – ontologies
• We need to work together, across disciplines to tackle these challenges
