BIM Change Log
It has been found useful on BIM projects to keep a running log of "off model" changes that have been made during construction. Keeping a good record of changes made during construction will ease the creation of accurate as-built BIMs. The BIM Change Log can;
- Keep track of changes –ASI, RFI, Field Sketches
- Keep track of changes in BIM model
- Identify the responsible party for changes
- Evaluate Inputs, Views
- Verify Completion
Using the Change Log
In general, the GC will take responsibility for the upkeep and coordination of the BIM Change Log. The upkeep will be done as changes are made in the field and reviewed with the team during the weekly coordination meeting.

Data Format Matrix
The goal of the data format matrix is to assist in establishing what data format will be used when exchanging data between team members. This should be addressed during the project's BIM Execution Plan and updated as needed throughout the project. Only direct input from the data producer should be entered and at no time should assumptions be made as to what format the data exchange will take place.

The GSA standard equipment list is a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet used to populate the National Computerized Maintenance Management System within the GSA.
The GSA standard equipment list should not be confused with COBie based requirements. Although they both attempt to achieve BIM to FM, only COBie is fully supported within BIM authoring application.
When completing the GSA standard equipment list, it is recommended that you export the project to COBie and simply copy and paste the needed data from the COBie spreadsheets to the GSA standard equipment list.
