On projects of $50 million or more, BIM is already required. The question is no longer whether to produce it, but what remains of it once the project team has moved on.
This page is for the teams that plan, maintain and oversee healthcare facilities, from project managers to asset managers. It shows how building information can stay organized by site, by room and by asset, so that the facility’s records remain easy to find and up to date as the building evolves.
A health network, CIUSSS, CISSS or affiliated facility, delivers complex projects where BIM is mandated from day one. But too often, BIM delivery stops at handover. Design data never transfers into an operations tool, and a planned infrastructure audit has to start from scratch to document actual facility condition.
In an environment where every disruption has a direct impact on care, the absence of reliable building-condition data isn’t just an administrative irritant.
DBA Experts-Conseils has delivered Quebec institutional projects since 1994, with recognized expertise in occupied environments. DBABIM, our ISO-certified division, turns contractually required BIM deliverables into real operational data: maintenance logs, reserve fund studies, defensible CAPEX planning.
The data you require at construction should stay useful to you at operations.
Design data is built for operations, not just site coordination.
Drone and LiDAR validate real condition ahead of an infrastructure audit.
A digital building memory, maintenance log and CAPEX prioritization through DBAssets, available to the operations team, not just the project team.
A planned infrastructure audit moves faster and more reliably when the data already exists. An asset manager who prioritizes interventions with real data reduces the risk of unplanned failure in an environment where the unplanned is expensive.
Let's talk about what your next BIM mandate produces.
If an asset management system is already integrated network-wide, we focus the offer on structuring the BIM data to integrate cleanly with it, rather than proposing DBAssets in parallel.
No. Structuring happens within the standard modelling process, with no extra step that would delay contractual delivery.
Models are produced in industry-standard formats (Revit, Navisworks, ACC), and asset data is exportable at any time, with no lock-in to a closed proprietary platform.
The typical decision cycle for this type of institutional mandate is 60 to 90 days after an initial demonstration.
