Building information modelling framework in facilities management for building refrubishment

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a synergistic mechanism utilized for Architectural, Engineering and Construction (AEC) sectors on the basis of several software solutions. Today, Malaysia construction industry is facing a serious issue from the society to improve efficiency, value, and quality. Loading of the cycle of construction project operation and maintenance seem to be around as most of costing to be during the phases. The aim (of this study is to propose to develop a Building Information Modelling framework in facilitating management for Building Refurbishment) By adopting BIM in facilities management (FM) will be able to overcome this issue. Hence, the objectives are (1) To study the challenges of factors affecting BIM adoption in ecosystem maintenance and refurbishment. (2) To identify the factors influencing BIM acceptance in facilities management (FM) for building refurbishment.(3) To determine the relationship of BIM for factors that influencing the faciliting management for building refurbishmen. Hence, (4) set of structured survey questionnaire from random construction sites managed by various contractors in Malaysia. The collected data was then analyzed using frequency distribution analysis and the Average Index also Smart PLS software to test the internal consistency method. The results are categorized according to the level of disagreeing or agree and presented in the tables and figures for easy interpretation. The findings showed that the factors reduce human resource during operation phase and improve Maintenance planning schedules were in the category of agreeing to important according to the analysis and ranking of the average index. Furthermore, the most important factors that were noticed from BIM can enhance operations & maintenance of facility management. Also, the results showed that management and maintenance were mostly classified as, which indicate that BIM can reduce in operation maintenance cost and data support in facilities management

The Conceptual Framework of Investigating Different Factors Impacting Construction Industry of Iraq: A Moderating Role of Organizational Culture

Currently, construction companies are trying to increase their competitiveness by adapting to a changing business environment and investing in organizational culture and development programs in recent years, this work has spread around the world. To demonstrate this investment, it is important to provide evidence that the value of the stakeholders is adequately recognized to ensure that the it yields the desired results and significantly improves performance. There is a growing awareness in the construction industry of the importance of stakeholders for companies to develop the skills and knowledge of their employees. Construction companies need new labor market stakeholders’ factors to be more skilled, and workers already in the workforce are more skilled This need is particularly evident in the construction industry, which is affected by technological change A study on stakeholders organizational culture needs in the construction industry conducted by the construction organizational culture directorate found that there is a lack of skills at the management level to achieve this if quality and productivity levels were improved. Additional organizational culture is needed to close the skills gap Stakeholders are the most valuable asset in any organization, especially in the low-skilled industries and the construction industry
