Information management – The easier way to understand BIM
It is more attractive to see digitization as a necessity if we speak in simple terms and with fewer acronyms. Information management is the essence of a BIM process
Digital information management is the new BIM. It has revolutionized the way that construction projects are managed, providing a systematic approach to managing project data.
Managing information digitally has become the new trend in the construction industry. It is seen as the new Building Information Modelling (BIM) as it has revolutionized the way that construction projects are managed. As technology advances, the construction industry is moving away from manual methods of information management and toward digital information management.
Digital information management is the process of creating, organizing, and managing information in digital formats. It is a systematic approach that helps construction organizations effectively manage project information. The process involves collecting data, storing it in a digital format, and making it easily accessible to stakeholders.

Benefits of Digital Information Management
The benefits of digital information management are enormous. It helps construction companies improve their decision-making process by providing real-time information on project progress. This information can be used to make informed decisions that can save time and reduce costs. Digital information management also allows for better collaboration between team members because everyone has access to the same information.
One of the key benefits of digital access to data is that it can be used to improve project delivery. It provides a single source of truth for all project data, allowing project managers to make informed decisions quickly. It also enables project teams to work more efficiently by reducing the time spent searching for information, and construction companies to track and manage all aspects of the project, including materials, equipment, and labor. This information can be used to ensure that quality standards are met and that the project is delivered on time and within budget.
And what about manufacturers? Delivering your data digitally is also revolutionizing the way manufacturers manage their product data. With the rise of e-commerce and the increasing importance of online presence, manufacturers need a systematic approach to managing their product data. Digitizing your data does just that. It enables manufacturers to track and manage all aspects of their products, from design to production to delivery, and this information can be used to ensure that quality standards are met and that products are delivered on time and within budget.
Importance of Standardization in Digital Information Management
PDFs, spreadsheets, graphics… This is a thing of the past. This data is digital but not machine-readable and its structure is not standardized. The next hot topic is to find a homogeneous data structure that allows product data to be categorized in the same way for projects across markets and countries, no matter what software you use or what language you speak.
By providing your data in a standard structure, manufacturers can improve their decision-making process. By providing real-time information on product performance and customer feedback, manufacturers can make informed decisions that can save time and reduce costs. This information can also be used to improve customer satisfaction by quickly addressing any issues or concerns. Another benefit of digital information management is that it can help manufacturers streamline their operations. By automating the process of data collection, storage and retrieval, manufacturers can reduce the time and resources required to manage product data. This can result in significant cost savings and increased efficiency.
Enhancing the Customer Experience
And what about their relationships with customers? Working in this way also enables manufacturers to improve collaboration with their suppliers and customers. By providing a single source of truth for product data, manufacturers can ensure that all stakeholders are working from the same information. This can improve communication and reduce the risk of errors or misunderstandings.
In addition, an organized database of your product data enables manufacturers to comply with regulatory requirements. By storing product data in a digital format, manufacturers can easily retrieve and provide the necessary information to regulatory agencies. This can reduce the risk of non-compliance and the associated fines or penalties.
Finally, the use of digital information management can help manufacturers improve their online presence. By providing accurate and comprehensive product data, manufacturers can improve the customer experience and increase conversion rates. This can lead to increased sales and revenue. And the power of BIM visualization can help.
Conclusion on Digital Information Management using BIM
In summary, digital information management is not only the new BIM for the construction industry, but also for manufacturers. It provides a systematic approach to managing product data that can help improve product quality, streamline operations, enhance collaboration, and comply with regulatory requirements. It can also improve the customer experience and increase revenue. Manufacturers that embrace digital information management are better equipped to compete in today’s marketplace and deliver quality products on time and within budget.
