3 Unified Facilities Criteria Tied To BIM Model Functional / Operational Security Doors: Doors in detention spaces typically will swing out from cells or other similar occupied spaces. Doors at holding cells can have metal grillwork. This grillwork is generally constructed of 1-3/4" 10 gauge tubular stainless steel with a 1/4" diameter type 304 wire woven steel rod panel in a 2" diamond pattern mesh.

4 Study Identifies $15.8B Annual Loss Interoperability problems in the capital facilities industry stem from the highly fragmented nature of the industry, the industry s continued paper based business practices, a lack of standardization, and inconsistent technology adoption among stakeholders. Based on interviews and survey responses, $15.8 billion in annual interoperability costs were quantified for the capital facilities industry in Of these costs, two-thirds are borne by owners and operators, which incur most of these costs during ongoing facility operation and maintenance (O&M).

10 What We Told HQ Although the ROIs for BIM are most likely exaggerated, they do offer sufficient returns to warrant development BIM changes the design process HQUSACE is appropriate for MILCON Transformation and Corps Centers of Standardization and Civil Works There are unresolved questions about BIM (ownership/liability) that have not been answered but should not prevent us from using BIM

11 Centers of Standardization According to the Realignment/Establishment of COS memo dated 3/6/06: All COS will develop and maintain BIM models for each standard facility type The USACE BIM Road Map provides initial guidance in implementing BIM

12 The BIM Road Map RoadMap for Implementing BIM in Support of MILCON Transformation and Civil Works Projects Within the Army Corps of Engineers

13 Building Information Modeling U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Road Map Initial Operating Capability (IOC) 8 Centers of Standardization (COS) productive in BIM by 2008 Establish Life-Cycle Interoperability 90% compliant with National BIM Standard (NBIMS) All districts productive in NBIMS Full Operational Capability (FOC) NBIMS used for all projects as part of contract advertisement, award, submittals, construction, O&M, asset management Automation of Life-Cycle Tasks Leverage NBIMS data for substantial reduction in cost and time of constructed facilities

14 Corps BIM Road Map Addresses both Short-term (FY08) and Long-term (FY12) goals Provides Implementation Guidance Addresses MILCOM Transformation, Centers of Standardization, and Civil Works Address BIM in Design/Build and Design/Bid/Build (FY07)

15 Goal 1: Establish Metrics to Use for Measuring Process Improvement Objective: Create Lean Six Sigma for Building Information Modeling process Coordinate with MILCON Lean Six Sigma project Coordinate with Civil Works LSS (if it exists) Objective: Capture metrics from projects Objective: Coordinate with Goal 3: Campaign Plan Implementation Objective 3d

16 Goal 2: Establish Initial Operating Capability for BIM by 2008 Focus: Reuse of BIM models for faster planning and design Metric: reduction in planning and design time through reuse of models Objective: Achieve focused expertise in Centers of Standardization (COS) (Civil Works and Military) Metric: 8 COS trained and productive in BIM by 2008 Objective: Establish BIM capability at non-cos districts (civil & military) Objective: Develop enterprise repository(ies) for BIM Metric: Repository will contain a minimum of 8 facility types in BIM by 2008

17 Implementation Plan Goal 2: How to Achieve by 2008 The Centers of Standardization need a starting point for their development of the standard building types in BIM Prepares the remaining Districts (Military and Civil Works) for their upcoming BIM implementations Will serve as an appendix to and reinforce the Strategic Plan Will identify strategic alliances (NIBS, OGC, etc.)

18 Training Prerequisites Various BIM workshops available, based on user experience BIM Manager training ELA availability information BIM Workshops: BIM Workshops consist of on-site training followed by coaching. This approach allows students to train on the BIM applications and immediately utilize the product on a real project with instructor support and oversight. Within the Corps, this approach has had great success and is strongly recommended. (In situations where no project exists, this approach is still useful when used with a practice project.)

19 Bentley BIM Platform USACE will maximize use of available products and training. Districts will utilize existing purchasing agreements (Enterprise License Agreements) to minimize cost of implementing BIM. The intent of limiting the number tools is to provide rapid implementation through platform specific implementation requirements followed by broader vendor-neutral goals. As interoperability improves (estimated 2008) between platforms, the strategic plan will be modified to allow the choice in platforms. Two Congressional Inquiries to date!

20 Datasets Corporate data/models (USACE) Facility Standard Models/Modules (COS) Project models (District) Corporate Datasets: The corporate dataset is the common dataset stored across all Corps projects. This dataset is used to start new projects. At the beginning of each new project, the dataset would be given on a CD, or shared on a server. This dataset will be the starting point of the design project and data will be added as needed to support the project.

21 BIM Team Organization BIM Manager Lead Tech Designers BIM Manager Each site needs to designate a BIM Manager. For the first 6 months of implementing BIM, this person should be able to devote 100% of their time to the BIM implementation. Depending on the BIM workload after 6 months, this may taper off, however, the BIM Manager will serve as liaison to the A/E community. As mentioned above, the first instinct is to designate the current site CADD Manager as the BIM Manager as well, but this should be avoided at all costs, due to the time required in implementing BIM.

22 Standards How does the A/E/C CADD Standard fit in? Tie-in to the NBIMS What else is needed? Evolution and capture of data in the datasets

24 Management Support Manage Corporate Expectations be prepared for losses at first, but ultimately substantial benefits will be gained BIM Pit radical and new concept for team building in design work Management needs to realize that there are a lot of issues at stake in the move to BIM. BIM is expected to solve many of the problems associated with the design and construction process currently used by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. However, the Corps of Engineers current design and construction process is unique because of the massive projects that the Corps undertakes. The current process is very cumbersome for typical MILCON projects. In order to effectively utilize the BIM process, a District will have to change their current business processes. Ultimately, the BIM process will streamline projects for both Civil Works and MILCON projects.

25 Transition Plan Preparing for O&M Handoff Educate the clients/customers The last part of your transition plan should be to realize that BIM is a new technology that few clients/owners are familiar with. Take the opportunity to educate them on this technology and explain the benefits to them. BIM s greatest return on investment is in the O&M life cycle phase. To realize this ROI, the BIM model must carry the data most relevant to the owner/user needs. Working with the client during the BIM development will ensure that datasets carry the data the owner requires. Understanding that all the necessary data is not developed during the BIM design, it is important to educate the owner/client on the need to continue data collection during construction. Managing and maintaining the BIM model after construction represents new and profitable income avenues for the Corps.

26 Goal 3: Establish Facility Life-cycle Interoperability by 2010 Focus: Interoperability using National BIM Standard (NBIMS) Metric: 90% Compliant with National BIM Standard Objective: Ensure that National BIM Standard meets the requirements of USACE and our customers Objective: Utilize NBIMS to control cost, quality and validation of design, construction, and O&M submittals Metric: Define and demonstrate capability Objective: Establish interoperability with life-cycle information technologies
