From Design to Digital Twin: Building Indoor GIS with CAD and BIM Data

CAD and BIM have long served as the foundational design and construction documentation —but their utility often ends at project handoff. What if it didn’t? Indoor GIS is a floor-aware system of record for visualizing, analyzing, and managing facilities and collection of buildings. This session will demonstrate how to extend the life of CAD and BIM data into an indoor GIS, and empower CAD, BIM and GIS practitioners to build a Digital Workplace for building operations. Learn about the role of CAD and BIM integrations with GIS to fuel these workflows. See how to import design data into ArcGIS Indoors to map assets and manage spaces, enable real-time navigation with ArcGIS IPS, and equip facilities’ staff with mobile tools for asset inspections and maintenance. Whether new to GIS or looking to modernize facility operations workflows, this session provides you with guidance and examples to convert CAD and BIM data into Digital Workplaces that support asset and space management.

Efficient Digital Operating Model—Technology Is Not an Absolute Value
A small business from Finland recognized wasteful practices in real estate lifecycle's workflows and decided to tackle that waste by developing an efficient, digital operating model around Forma software and its integrations. It was essential to discard many old practices as obsolete and unsuitable for digital workflow. Technology wasn’t considered to hold any value itself; it was simply an enabler and facilitator. Our approach differs from the giants of our industry. We optimize with smaller projects, then move on to bigger ones. The strength of the model is its scalability. As a company that does construction project management, we affect the industry as a whole—owners, designers, contractors. Explore the traditional methods we wanted to discard and the key factors we wanted to master. Discover how we expanded scope, from efficiency factors to utilizing lean principles and dialectic models. This class will bring you everything we’ve learned so far and examine what comes next.

Eliminating Construction Waste As a Pathway to Project Success
Material waste in construction commonly adds up to as much as 30% of procured material and 10% or more of project budget, offering a clear opportunity for optimization. Wasted materials also represent a sizable "forgotten" portion of a building's embodied carbon, infrequently measured or accounted for. This session will start from the premise that material utilization cannot be truly improved in isolation, exploring how the pursuit of more sustainable construction is fundamentally interlinked with other measurable outcomes like quality, schedule, cost, and safety—each worthy of optimization in its own right. Drawing on case studies and backed by Forma workflows, the presenters will show how the pursuit of more sustainable construction correlates with project success. They will argue that lean construction, which aims to root out waste in all its forms, offers a pathway to triple bottom-line success, combining positive outcomes for people, the planet, and profit.
