Redefining Project Turnover & Closeout
Redefining Project Turnover & Closeout

For clients and contractors, the commissioning and turnover process can be stressful, expensive and long. This class will explore practical case studies and best practices on how the best in the industry are reducing the schedule for commissioning and transferring data to owners, and creating stronger relationships.

During this webinar we will also discuss delivery the value of BIM to wonders with a Digital Twin. Digital Twins are the latest buzzword in the AEC the industry and are simply the next step in the digital transformation of your business. This portion of the webinar will help you cut through the hype, understand the value of a Digital Twin, and what is required to create one.

BIM in the digital transformation, how to take advantage of it? The Owner’s challenges and potentials
BIM in the digital transformation, how to take advantage of it? The Owner’s challenges and potentials

Digital transformation requires the implication of all stakeholders of the AECO industry ecosystem. Because of this transformation, an expectations gap between owners’ and the project team could emerge. Adopting a clear vision that is well defined by the owner, which adapts to the industry pace, and which promotes collaboration, remains essential in this context of transformation which integrates innovative practices such as BIM and IDP. This is the method of choice for the SQI, a major public owner in Quebec, to undertake this digital transformation, and generate value throughout the life cycle of its facilities.

This presentation highlights the strategy adopted by the SQI for the integrated practices BIM-IDP deployment in its projects. It will outline the genesis of this approach, the steps followed, the processes and the efforts deployed to develop its BIM requirements both at the organizational level and at the project level. This presentation will also present a roadmap for deploying BIM-IDP in a structured and progressive manner. This deployment will be demonstrated through concrete examples, challenges encountered, and lessons learned.

This presentation covers the following objectives:

  • Demonstrate the importance of BIM integrating into the owners strategic vision, and the importance of placing human beings at the heart of this change.‍
  • Identify the efforts, investments and requirements which the owner needs to define before starting a BIM project.
  • Demonstrate the real BIM benefits for the owner, particularly for the organization, management and sustainability of its information assets.
  • Identify the challenges encountered and how to overcome them.

Crossing The Bridge: Data Handover; Expectations vs. Reality at The End of The Project
Crossing The Bridge: Data Handover; Expectations vs. Reality at The End of The Project

When a project is being delivered what should owners be considering as part of the project handover? What is the record model? What does it look like and what does it need to contain? When should you be seeing the data? Should there be iterative points rather than all at the end or a consolidated dataset of the project? What type of Digital documentation for each asset should be provided and how do you eliminate disparate information that is not linked together?

  1. Setting up the owners expectations early, what data is important and relevant
  2. A clients understanding and process from Design to O & M
  3. Understanding how the BIM Execution Plan can set up all the requirements
  4. Knowing the end in mind, how to get the right information from your Contractor or CM for O & M
  5. What owners should be aware in terms of the gaps between the industry and owners expectations

Setting the Foundation for Your Digital Buildings: Lessons from the Front
Setting the Foundation for Your Digital Buildings: Lessons from the Front

Drawing on the recent experience of panel members, this discussion will address the burning questions around how to start transitioning to intelligent facilities. For example, how do you choose a pilot project? What information should be collected? How do you go from 2D to a full BIM handover? Learn from the lived experience of our panel members of how to be more successful in your BIM journey. The panel will Include major challenges and how they were overcome. Key information that was expected and was not collected and the need for an impartial expert who speaks for the Owner - why and who?
