The key component of BIM is the information element\, and when properly adopted it provides the backbone for efficiently managing data from the early conception of the asset being built through to operations and handover. \nHowever\, this can only be achieved with data that is well-defined early and the use of open standards\, or OpenBIM. This approach allows both the 3D geometry representing the asset and its connected data to move between various platforms or lifecycle stages\, always remaining accessible and able to be used in combination with 3D geometry (where required). \nEric Bugeja\, Chairperson of buildingSMART Australasia\, will provide you with an overview of information management best practice and the tools available to improve project efficiency. \nClick here to register \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Eric has been at the forefront of applying technology to improve efficiency. His early engineering career focused on the development of leading-edge automation for manufacturing processes\, using technology to enhance both quality and production speed. He was also an early adopter of 3D design and Building Information Modelling (BIM). Following this\, Eric worked with a start-up company to transition from R&D into large-scale manufacturing. Over the past ten years\, he has shifted his expertise from manufacturing to transport infrastructure engineering and construction\, managing teams at GHD and serving as a Project Director.
