Building Information Modeling is the life-cycle management of the built environment supported by digital technology. In the manufacturing world, PLM, product lifecycle management (PLM) is the process of managing the entire life-cycle of a product from its conception, through design and manufacture, to service and disposal.

Level of development (LOD) relative to the life-cycle management of the built environment (BIM) should have a solid framework relative to ONTOLOGY. 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.

As such it serves as a shared knowledge resource for information about a facility forming a reliable basis for decisions during its life cycle from inception onward”. Lastly, 3D visualization should not be confused with BIM. BIM can be accomplished without 3D visualization.
