Construction Management Software
A common data environment (CDE) for Asset Owners, Developers and Contractors that manages and assures the delivery of information across the entire lifecycle of built assets. For contractors, gliderbim plugs the critical handover gap that legacy file centric CDE's don't address. We deliver compliance! We capture, verify, approve and exchange digital deliverables (including COBie & IFC), as well as managing the creation of Digital Operation & Maintenance manuals and Handover information. For Asset Owners & Developers, gliderbim provides the platform for managing project & asset information. The Information Delivery Planning capability ensures owners get exactly what they need (from their suppliers) to effectively manage their asset portfolios and operational activities. In the realm of digital twins and smart buildings, gliderbim is the integration hub for current & verified project & asset data, integrating CAPEX & OPEX workflows to provide a single view of truth.

🔍 Using building information to uncover the truth Decisions about buildings are often based on anecdotes. Comments like "the heating was broken last week" or "this space is never used" are common. But are these statements actually true? Without accurate building information, assumptions can drive costly and misplaced priorities. In this clip, Steven Boyd MBE explains how structured asset information can challenge assumptions, provide clarity and ensure resources are allocated where they’re truly needed. 👇 Watch the clip now and see why data should lead the way in building management. 🔗 To watch the full interview with Steven and Lucas Cusack, and more insights on the future of asset information, visit >>> https://lnkd.in/ee_UfkqA #BuildingData #AssetManagement #DigitalTwins #DataDrivenDecisions #SmartBuildings #AIMCDE #GliderTechnology
