OperationFrom BIM to building operation: where digital facility management stands today
Cloud platforms, BIM, digital twins and AI are changing facility management, but digital maturity varies widely. Some companies already connect and automate processes across systems, while others still rely on Office files and standalone applications. The gap is particularly clear when a building moves from construction into operation: this is where years of project data must prove their practical value.

OperationBuilding Operating Systems: smart control centres for efficient buildings
Alongside Building Information Modelling (BIM), another technology is gaining importance: the Building Operating System (BOS). These platforms connect data from building automation, IoT, energy management and other applications, making it available to different services. In facility management, they can help manage energy use, space utilisation and technical systems using a shared foundation of data.

InfrastructureHow BIM and sensors extend the life of critical infrastructure
Maintaining infrastructure such as ports and bridges is an increasing challenge for designers and operators. Germany's repair backlog, investment needs and sustainability ambitions call for new approaches. Modern sensors play a key role by recording structural conditions in real time and enabling more precise maintenance planning.

SustainabilityCircular and sustainable: how BIM is transforming construction
Circular construction focuses on reuse and resource conservation. BIM provides an important foundation by digitally documenting materials and products and making them traceable throughout their life cycle. The new EU Construction Products Regulation and Digital Product Passport give this information chain even greater importance.
