bidirectional data flow between AIM and CMMS keeps the model ready for the next delivery cycle, and enables additional functionalities (e.g., analytics and reporting) to utilize AIM during the longest stage of asset’s life cycle. What is the Future As a first step toward a truly connected future, efficient and effective data transfer in a well-defined CDE is critical for the global industry to move forward from its current status. BIM Level 3 has not been fully defined yet. The trend of data fusion and integration is pushing the entire industry towards the next era with IOT-enabled, data-driven connected opera- tions fundamentally changing the way that current asset management is being utilized. We are eagerly waiting for the release of ISO 19650 parts 1 and 2 with parts 3 and 5 following. As the first International Standard to cover both the delivery and operational phases, ISO 19650 series will build the global consensus on streamlined data management from PIM to AIM, and raise the bar of the current AECO industry by creating an entirely new standard of measurement of true BIM life- cycle implementation.

More detailed information will be covered in the second part of this article: From PIM To AIM - A Detailed Look at How the ISO 19650 Series Affects Asset Management.
