But BIM is more than a technology tool. It is part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/bim-news\/building-and-maintaining-a-digital-estate\/42968\/\">digital transformation of the built environment<\/a>. It enables a more collaborative and joined-up approach to a whole-life process: planning, procurement, design, construction, commissioning, handover and future operation and maintenance of built assets.<\/p>\n<p>BIM can benefit many asset owners and operators as Sainsbury\u2019s discovered when they needed to digitise their existing estate as their focus moved from new build to \u2018sweating their assets\u2019. Although familiar with BIM on their new builds, most of the legacy information of their existing estate was in 2D drawings. However, they saw the potential to use the standards and principles of BIM to process and categorising that information.<\/p>\n<p>That enabled them to create their digital estate which enables colleagues and partners to quickly answer questions about what they have in their estate, how many they have, and where they are located. This allows them to find information and gain insight to make strategic decisions around their assets.<\/p>\n<p>This White Paper from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/tag\/sh-groupbc\/\">GroupBC<\/a> focuses on the challenges facing those with a multitude of legacy information and summarises the process Sainsbury\u2019s underwent of digitising their existing information, as well as connecting their existing legacy systems to create a digital estate that drives innovation and investment.<\/p>\n<p>View the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.groupbc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/GroupBC-Digital-Estate-WP.pdf\">White Paper here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a newly released White Paper, GroupBC focuses on the challenges of creating a digital estate for those with a multitude of legacy information and summarises the process Sainsbury\u2019s underwent when digitising their existing information<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[305],"tags":[428,277,890],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[172452],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-43265","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-bim-news","7":"tag-bim","8":"tag-built-environment","9":"tag-sh-groupbc","10":"stakeholder_rel_tag-groupbc"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>The Digital Estate \u2013 driving innovation and investment<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"In a newly released White Paper, GroupBC focuses on the challenges of creating a digital estate for those with a multitude of legacy information\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/digital-construction-news\/bim-news\/the-digital-estate\/43265\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"The Digital Estate \u2013 driving innovation and investment\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"In a newly released White Paper, GroupBC focuses on the challenges of creating a digital estate for those with a multitude of legacy information\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/digital-construction-news\/bim-news\/the-digital-estate\/43265\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Planning, Building &amp;
