Appendix B-4: Model Use: Monitor Maintenance
Monitor Maintenance
Description:
Using facility information models to monitor facility status and schedule maintenance activities for a facility.
Potential Value:
- Allows for proactive maintenance planning
- Gain data on maintenance history for future prediction and planning
- Increase productivity of maintenance staff by providing information needed for work orders
- Allow facility managers to justify the need and cost of establishing a reliability-centered maintenance program
Resources Required:
- Design review software to view Record Model and components
- Building Automation System (BAS) linked to Record Model
- Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) linked to Record Model
- User-Friendly Dashboard Interface linked to Record Model to provide building performance information and/or other information to educate building users
Team Competencies Required:
- Ability to understand and manipulate CMMS and building control systems with Record Model
- Ability to understand typical equipment operation and maintenance practices
- Ability to manipulate, navigate, and review a 3D Model
