Webinar Title:

"BIM: Accelerate Your Common Data Environment (CDE)" 

Organised by: Mitra Innovation and GeoEnable

The challenge

Common challenges faced by organisations that manage physical assets and facilities are that they often have disparate asset and facilities information systems and teams, with no common view of our assets or facilities.

Does this sound familiar to you? If so, you are not alone.

It is typical to find that information systems have inconsistent data with little or no ‘metadata’ to describe, where the data is from, who created it, what is should/shouldn’t be used for and why the data was initially captured.

In short, there is no single source of data. No one truth. This introduces risk and creates inefficiencies.

The Solution

The key is integration:

People and Process: Integration across teams; integration between business processes & standards – these must be established to ensure long term success.

Technology and Data: It is vital these are underpinned by robust technologies that allow the management and validation of new data as well as integration of existing information systems.

Integration creates a single, shared and common view of assets. Providing a truly asset-centric view for project activities and on-going operations and maintenance is vital.

In this webinar we will cover
