| facilities management conferences 2023: The Smart Estate Jason Challender, Akponanabofa Henry Oti, 2024-02-20 The Smart Estate Bring your estate management methods into the future with this accessible guide Building information modeling, or BIM, is a catch-all term for a wide array of tools and processes for creating digital representations of buildings or building components. These tools have been widely embraced for use in the construction phase of projects, but their potential has only begun to be realized in facility management and maintenance, even though these account for 85% of costs in the life cycle of a building. Organizations controlling diverse estates with multiple buildings of varying ages stand to benefit enormously from a BIM-informed approach to estate management. The Smart Estate outlines such an approach and its potential to improve facility and estate management. Emphasizing practical applications, it moves beyond the project delivery stage to focus on the much longer — and costlier — period of building operation and maintenance. The result is a thorough and accessible guide to generating collaborative, BIM-informed methods. The Smart Estate readers will also find: Case studies and real-world scenarios illustrating best practices Detailed discussion particularly suited to the needs of large-scale or public-sector organizations Detailed step-by-step guide to developing a BIM-informed approach to a given asset portfolio The Smart Estate is ideal for professionals in construction management and facilities management, as well as for advanced students and professionals in all construction related disciplines. |

| facilities management conferences 2023: DMAIC Arturo Realyvásquez Vargas, Jorge Garcia Alcaraz, Suchismita Satapathy, José Roberto Díaz-Reza, Bogart Yail Marquez Lobato, 2024-10-30 The industry is currently facing a multitude of challenges on production lines that must be systematically addressed in order to improve quality and productivity. One commonly utilized methodology by companies is DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control), which has been proven effective through various case studies and is now considered a standard problem-solving approach. However, existing books on DMAIC often focus solely on defining concepts and tools, as well as showcasing case studies separately. This book consolidates all of these aspects into a single, user-friendly resource. DMAIC: Concepts, Tools, and Industrial Applications offers both theoretical and practical insights into the DMAIC methodology. It sequentially presents all stages of DMAIC, outlining activities, data collection, and analysis processes. By integrating DMAIC concepts, tools, and case studies, this book provides industry professionals with a comprehensive resource. Real-world case studies from companies that have successfully implemented DMAIC to enhance production processes are showcased, offering valuable insights and practical examples. This book serves as a valuable resource for professionals, students, and individuals responsible for improving industrial production systems. By consolidating theory, tools, and case studies into a single book, readers can gain a comprehensive understanding of DMAIC and its application in industry. |
