What Collectus Delivers for Facility Owners

Collectus is a comprehensive BIM solution designed specifically for facility owners who want to harvest and utilize room, asset, and system data from AEC BIM models — creating a structured, digital twin-ready data environment.

It addresses the common challenges owners face with inconsistent, incomplete, or unusable BIM deliverables by providing a turnkey solution that includes:

✅ 36,000+ Standardized Revit Families: All named using CSI’s MasterFormat 6-digit classification, ensuring every component is consistently categorized for asset management and operations.

✅ Integrated BIM Execution Plan (BEP) & Data Execution Plan (DEP): Embedded within Collectus, these plans guide AEC teams on required model content, parameters, and deliverables, eliminating the need for owners to develop their own Revit BIM standards.

✅ Pre-Built LODi Schedules for Data Validation: Allow owners to define, provide, and easily validate data at every project phase - LODi 300 (Design and Documentation Data), LODi 400 (Manufacturer Data), and LODi 500 (Operations and Maintenance Data) — with no BIM expertise required.

✅ Integrated CSI Crosswalk Translator: MasterFormat codes automatically translate inside the Revit model into OmniClass and UniFormat, simplifying downstream integration with FM systems, GIS platforms, and digital twins.

✅ Full Access for AEC BIM Teams at No Added Cost: Owners can give their entire project team access to the Collectus library, BEP, and LODi tools, ensuring that all AEC consultants deliver data-rich models aligned with owner requirements.

✅ Harvest-Ready Data at Handover: Structured, validated BIM data is immediately usable for operations, maintenance, asset management, and digital twin integration, streamlining the transition from construction to operations.

✅ Reduced Risk & Lifecycle Costs: By controlling the data flow from design through handover, owners avoid costly rework, manual data entry, and operational inefficiencies.

✅ Collectus is an Open Standard: Collectus is built on industry standards such as CSI MasterFormat, UniFormat, OmniClass, the National CAD Standards, and COBie. The resulting data-rich BIMs can also output and connect with other frameworks like IFC, buildingSMART Data Dictionary (bsDD), Brick, and Project Haystack - enabling true operational interoperability across systems. With Collectus, Owners retain full freedom to open and share this BIM structured data with other applications as needed, ensuring long-term flexibility and integration.

Collectus standardizes new BIMs and legacy data for smarter operations, digital twins, and AI-ready information.
