Facilities of the future: developing & integrating AECO Digital Twins using Forge

The building owner's Digital Twins include digital models of facilities & operations. They should be integrated. We share work to define owner FM requirements and scaleable methods to deliver FM data from capital projects using Autodesk products. We also integrate the VueOps platform, which uses Autodesk Forge, with an owner’s computerized maintenance management system. This owner seeks to find and view design, product, and O&M information about equipment holistically for incidence response and maintenance events, and eventually incorporate it with asset health and diagnosis tools. VueOps extracts and relates location, system, and equipment information from annotated CAD and BIM, to power ‘right information, right time’ search in a customized Forge viewer. We integrated the VueOps viewer and connected VueOps data with the owner’s computerized maintenance management system to bring BIM and project turnover data into an enterprise CMMS and manage changes between the Digital Twins.
