PropTech is coming and is about to disrupt the real estate industry. 2 years ago no one talked about PropTech. Yet, it is a new buzzword now. Business models are being reevaluated, consumers’ needs are evolving. Newcomers are able to dig deep and analyze these changes to offer better solutions and improved customer experiences. Change is real and inevitable. The key is to keep up to date and avoid denial. Starting from BIM at construction stage, application of enhanced data is developing and is bringing value and efficiency to asset management and daily operations throughout the lifecycle of the built environment.
The workshop is jointly organized by Asian Institute of Intelligent Buildings (AIIB), Hong Kong Institution of Engineers Environmental Division (HKIE-Env Div), International Facility Management Association (IFMA), and Society of Operations Engineers (SOE). Join us and share the insightful discussions with representatives from government offices and industrial leaders.
Abstract
BIM technology is a process involving the generation and management of digital representations of physical and functional characteristics of places or buildings, and it is also the collaborative digital process of creating and using the data bearing 3D models to enable or enhance some other processes such as design, drafting, coordination, quantification, construction, or facility management in the building industry. BIM is transforming the way that buildings and infrastructure are designed, constructed and operated, and it gives architecture, engineering, and construction professionals the tools to more efficiently plan, design, construct, and manage buildings and infrastructure.
The Buildings Department (BD) is studying the feasibility to accept BIM submissions under the Buildings Ordinance. Meanwhile, the BD is preparing the necessary set-up to accept BIM submissions as supplementary information to the plan submissions by mid-2019. The speaker will share with you the latest development.

Abstract
Since April 2014, EMSD has commenced a pilot project to study Building Information Modelling (BIM) application in asset management (AM) for building operation and maintenance (O&M) of electrical and mechanical (E&M) facilities. EMSD has developed an integrated BIM-AM System to take operation and maintenance in buildings to a new level of convenience via the tailor-made desktop and mobile terminal.
The BIM-AM System integrates visualisation, asset management and various electronics systems, including Building Management System (BMS), Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) system, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) scanning tool and Real Time Location System (RTLS). Such integration can streamline the fault reporting process and achieve remote diagnosis for E&M systems. The current first version of EMSD BIM-AM standards and guidelines launched in Nov 2017 were reviewed and will be published in Dec 2018 based on the outcomes of the pilot projects to ensure smooth data transfer between the as-built BIM model and the developed BIM-AM System.
Being the “Innovation Facilitator”, the EMSD further devote to the develop innovation technology together with BIM. In this year, we integrated BIM to Cave Automatic Virtual Environment (CAVE) with natural interaction and human 1-to-1 scale. That offers users an experience as if they are in the actual setting, facilitating trainees’ learning of the skills for the repair and maintenance of facilities. Besides, to promote the adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) technology for digitalization of E&M assets and smart city applications, trial projects for implementing a Government-Wide IoT Network (GWIN) had commenced for deploying various types of IoT sensor devices at selected indoor and outdoor areas at EMSD HQs. Suitable IoT network server solution was being explored for setting up of a dedicated IoT platform for collection of IoT data and even displaying the sensor values in BIM models as well as in 3D Geographic Information System (GIS).

Abstract
With the government mandate on use of BIM from 2018 for all public works in Hong Kong, both government and the construction industry have respectively made corresponding measures and positive responses to this demand. By reviewing the latest BIM development locally and elsewhere, it may be useful to suggest how to achieve the adoption of BIM in the construction industry based on the others experience of best practices especially how Hong Kong could be able to make use of the application of the BIM for construction projects in regions and countries along the One Belt One Road initiative such as Mainland, ASEAN, Middle East and Africa acting as connector and coordinator.

Abstract
When Computer Aided Design was introduced in the 60s, it was perceived as a tool to produce 2D drawings efficiently. When BIM came to the market, it was considered as a replacement of CAD and had been expected no more than a drafting tool. What else can we do with BIM if we think beyond 2D? How is BIM changing our industry by engaging multi-dimensional process in the practice of design, construction and operation?

Abstract
Latest Remote Sensing Technology, including UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) photogrammetry and Laser Scanning methods, has been broadly used in different aspects.They can nowadays be used for site inspection, progress photo, mobile mapping, topographic survey and volumetric calculation, project management, etc. The result would also be integrated into other modeling platforms (such as CAD, GIS and BIM) for further application. Operation and processing time of these land surveying approaches would be greatly reduced comparing to traditional surveying methods. Construction professional would be benefited from their user-friendly, time-saving and cost-effective performance.
Speaker would share experience of using remote sensing in various projects, and how they enhanced the effectiveness of project management.

Abstract
"Data is the core of the modern building" how we utilise it and present it is changing the way that buildings are being managed and run. Often during the project cycle the operational support is not always the highest priority for the project team. We aim in 20 minutes to show you how understanding what the data can do for your organisation and how using the correct tools can provide a level of insight and support that you might not have imagined possible.
Providing insight into the future of integrating BIM into the building lifecycle and the challenges faced by organisations to make sense of the data they have available to them. Providing the audience with some valuable guidance on how the whole project lifecycle needs to be altered to meet the needs of the modern workspace.
