Data in Construction – How to make a proper cake.

The construction industry is notoriously old-fashioned and slow, however, the industry is evolving and embracing ‘modern’ technology. Therefore, this old-school industry is coping with a wealth of new data which they do not always know how to handle. Interesting topics like predictive maintenance, AI-assisted design and sustainable developments seem far out of reach when organizations do not even know how many assets they have. The industry is trying to make a cake, while they only have raw sugar cane.

To solve this issue, BIM-Connected proposes an innovative way of working with data: Linked Data! This way of working can provide an improved Common Data Environment to answer (almost) all your questions. We are trying to make actual sugar, from sugar cane, so that the Built Environment can finally make some proper cakes!
