There is a need to develop the understanding of asset owners concerning the constraints of building information modelling (BIM) implementation, and its subsequent value realisation activities in asset management (AM) cannot be overstated. This is bec... Read More about BIM business value for asset owners : key issues and challenges.

BIM-based operational information requirements for asset owners (2020)
Journal Article
Munir, M., Kiviniemi, A., Jones, S., & Finnegan, S. (2020). BIM-based operational information requirements for asset owners. Architectural Engineering and Design Management, 16(2), 100-114. https://doi.org/10.1080/17452007.2019.1706439

It is widely recognised in the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry that asset owners do not really understand their information needs for effective BIM-based Asset Management (AM). Hence, they may be unable to develop their oper... Read More about BIM-based operational information requirements for asset owners.

BIM business value for asset owners through effective asset information management (2019)
Journal Article

Business value of integrated BIM-based asset management (2019)
Journal Article
Munir, M., Kiviniemi, A., & Jones, S. (2019). Business value of integrated BIM-based asset management. Engineering, Construction and Architectural Management, 26(6), 1171-1191. https://doi.org/10.1108/ecam-03-2018-0105

Currently, building information modelling (BIM) is largely seen as a 3D model, not as an information model or information management tool. This wrong perception of BIM and low interest in 3D asset management (AM) is one of the major reasons for the s... Read More about Business value of integrated BIM-based asset management.

Building Information Modelling (BIM), utilised during the design and construction phase of a project has the potential to create a valuable asset in its own right ('BIMASSET') at handover that in turn enhances the value of the development
Presentation / Conference
Patrick, R., Munir, M., & Jeffrey, H. Building Information Modelling (BIM), utilised during the design and construction phase of a project has the potential to create a valuable asset in its own right ('BIMASSET') at handover that in turn enhances the value of the development. Presented at The Twelfth International Conference for Enhanced Building Operations (ICEBO), Manchester

BIM currently appears to be seen primarily as a vehicle to deliver efficiencies within the design and construction phases of built assets lifespan.
In this paper, we postulate that the amalgamation of the data and its capture in the BIM technologie...
