Diretrizes para a implementação de BIM na gestão da manutenção de prédios públicos em Instituições Federais de Ensino Superior

Abstract

Public buildings are highly significant for a country, and their preservation is a constant concern for public administration. To extend the service life of these structures, it is essential to adopt strategies that ensure proper maintenance control, utilizing resources and tools that promote safety and sustainability. A promising approach to optimizing this process and ensuring the preservation of the built environment is efficient maintenance management (MM), combined with Building Information Modeling (BIM). The integration of BIM throughout the building lifecycle enhances processes, improves quality, and makes maintenance activities more effective. This study aims to propose guidelines for implementing BIM in MM for public buildings, focusing on Federal Institutions of Higher Education (FIHE), seeking to extend the longevity of these structures. Based on the Design Science Research approach, the study was developed in four stages: (a) literature review; (b) exploratory phase; (c) development phase; and (d) proposition phase. The literature review permeated all phases of the study. In the exploratory phase, attributes related to MM with BIM application were identified and organized into requirement groups, based on a Systematic Literature Review. In the development phase, these groups were validated, hierarchized, and correlated with the phases of the building lifecycle, allowing the identification of specific requirements for the maintenance of Brazilian FIHE. In the proposition phase, a process model for information requirements management was developed, serving as the basis for creating guidelines aimed at integrating maintenance data into BIM models and supporting MM in FIHE. The guidelines seek to improve processes in the operation and maintenance phase, expanding the use of BIM in this context.
