Congratulations! Your building has been designed and constructed. Today, we have discussed how to prepare for facilities management proactively; now, let’s examine how to use and maintain the digital thread. Your building will go through changes, and your building data will need to change and be updated. Whether equipment upgrades, space modifications, pandemics, life safety issues, sustainability issues, furniture movement or staff turnover, buildings are dynamic, and the better you structure facility operations, the more cost-effective your systems will be over the 75-100 year lifecycle.
