People – Process – Technology are traditionally considered the cornerstones of BIM. That said, without a robust ontology BIM is virtually impossible. Life-cycle management of the built environment is not mainstream due to the following factors. Focus upon life-cycle cost vs. first-costs. .

Also, over the life-cycle of a building, a sustainable, high-performance building will win on ROI every time as only 10%-20% of life-cycle cost go into construction, vs. operations, maintenance, etc. Efficient ongoing life-cycle management of facilities is the key to sustainability. Why not?

tried to foster BIM with NBIMS, also others in the world tried PAS this and PAS that, and ISO this and ISO that… the issue remains that standards can’t replace knowledge and competency. At the end of there day BIM represents nothing new relative to the efficient life-cycle management of the built environment.

While the definition of “life-cycle” has many permutations, and is likely to undergo ongoing improvement, the relationship to LOD needs to be developed in parallel.
