Abstract: This monograph presents a comprehensive exploration of the intersection between Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Facility Management (FM), offering a collection of research activities aimed at enhancing the management of buildings and complex systems. In recent years, the advent of advanced information technologies has created new opportunities to optimise Facility Management, with BIM emerging as a particularly powerful tool for integrating multiple disciplines within a single digital environment. Despite its potential, achieving a fully integrated model that connects BIM and FM systems remains a challenge.  The research activities discussed in this monograph advocate for the development of the Performance Information Model (PIM), a framework that embeds FM knowledge, performance monitoring, and assessment into a cohesive digital structure. The monograph highlights the transition from traditional building information models to facility management–oriented models and performance-enriched digital twins.
