In Construction Industry sector, an innovative approach called Building Information Modeling (BIM) is emerging as a new method to manage the whole building life cycle through a parametric informative virtual model. Compared to Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), a holistic approach widespread and consolidated in the manufacturing sector, the BIM use in maintenance phase represents a unexpressed potentiality. Against this background the paper presents a qualitative investigation into the current building heritage processes management in a French real estate company. To close the gap of traditional process, the case study proposes the digitalization of company operations in a Building Lifecycle Management (BLM) environment, resulting by the integration of the PLM and BIM approaches.

Abstract
In Construction Industry sector, an innovative approach called Building Information Modeling (BIM) is emerging as a new method to manage the whole building life cycle through a parametric informative virtual model. Compared to Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), a holistic approach widespread and consolidated in the manufacturing sector, the BIM use in maintenance phase represents a unexpressed potentiality. Against this background the paper presents a qualitative investigation into the current building heritage processes management in a French real estate company. To close the gap of traditional process, the case study proposes the digitalization of company operations in a Building Lifecycle Management (BLM) environment, resulting by the integration of the PLM and BIM approaches.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
