“…A number of authors have acknowledged that FM requires a complex selection of interrelated data and argue that BIM authoring tools alone are insufficient for managing all the data required for FM [25,50,62].Whilst BIM conceptually requires all information to be stored in a single space, other authors such as Munir et al [46] suggest that this can involve multiple systems as long as the systems are linked. Thus, data must be transferrable across platforms, and hence, the Open BIM exchange formats (e.g., COBie) were created to this end [54]. However, as previously mentioned, the existing exchange formats are currently insufficient for BIM-FM.…”

“…The limitation of their work is that the intention was to transfer the information to an FM system at a later date, thus rendering the BIM model obsolete. Di Filippo et al [54] carried out client interviews to generate a list of information requirements, but only managed to identify a total of five requirements with unclear justification.…”

Defined digital Facilities’ Management (FM) systems will contribute to the realisation of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 11. Of the available digital FM systems, Building Information Modelling (BIM) for FM, herein referred to as BIM-FM, is the least developed. Where BIM-FM varies from existing digital FM tools is its advanced 3D visualisation capabilities. A semi-structured literature review is undertaken to assess the current implementation of BIM-FM and identify opportunities to engender its increased adoption. This paper is part of an ongoing piece of research aimed at defining a standard methodology for the application of BIM to historically significant structures, otherwise known as Historic BIM (HBIM). Two existing approaches to BIM-FM, current and developing, are outlined. The potential value BIM-FM can provide according to the literature is discussed but there exists minimal practical evidence to justify these claims. Barriers to its adoption are discussed, with a key underlying barrier found to be a lack of defined user requirements. Consequently, functional, modelling and information requirements established within the literature are identified, and existing attempts at realising the requirements are discussed. Six information categories and two functional requirements are identified. It is theorised that the tendency to utilise simplified geometric models for FM is primarily due to software and practical limitations as opposed to actual end user needs, and it is suggested that this should be investigated further in future work. Attempts at realising BIM-FM user requirements using other advanced technologies, primarily Digital Twins, are investigated and found to be an area of increasing commonality. A new conception of BIM-FM is proposed.

Facility or facilities management (FM) helps ensure that the built environment is efficient, safe, comfortable, and sustainable. The goal of FM is to raise productivity and improve people's quality of life. FM involves working with a variety of service providers to ensure that buildings and associated facilities are well maintained. The role of the facility manager is becoming more prominent in a digitally enabled world. The recent pandemic has boosted the rate at which innovation is being embraced in most organisations. This research will look at the current trends in FM that are emerging as a result of digitalisation. The main objective of this research is to propose the FM digitalisation model, which might influence future FM practices. This systematic literature review is based on a search of articles across Scopus and Google Scholar using keywords such as "facilities management" and "digitisation". On July 6th, 2022, the searches yielded 614 articles, including 64 articles in Scopus, 113 articles in WoS, and 437 articles in Google Scholar. After screening, 29 Scopus articles, 93 WoS articles, and 398 Google Scholar articles were excluded. According to this study, the field of FM digitalisation is still in its early stages of development. The study also identifies FM digitalisation trends over the previous twelve years, establishing contextual knowledge. As a result, a conceptual model that focuses on sustainable FM digitalisation is proposed.
