An electronic construction collaboration system for managing a construction project is provided. The electronic construction collaboration system includes an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) sub-system including a contract engine configured to generate at least one project contract including a contract data set and ERP metadata corresponding to Building Information Modeling (BIM) metadata included in a structural object of a construction project model in a BIM sub-system and an interconnection engine configured to associatively link the ERP metadata and the BIM metadata and send the contract data set to the BIM sub-system in response to associatively linking the ERP metadata and the BIM metadata.

System and method linking building information modeling and enterprise resource planning

A method for operating a building information modeling (BIM) system, is provided. The method includes at a BIM server, receiving a data alteration request from a client computing device for altering data in one of a building model, a hierarchical structure of building model data, and a Construction Operations Building Information Exchange (COBie) spreadsheet, the building model, hierarchical structure of building model data, and COBie spreadsheet simultaneously displayed in a GUI generated by the BIM server, automatically determining validity of data in the data alteration request, and if it is determined that the data is valid, permitting the data alteration request based on predetermined permissions of the client computing device.

Methods and systems for processing building information modeling (BIM)-based data

A method for operating a BIM system is provided. The method includes at a BIM server, generating a network accessible graphical user interface (GUI) simultaneously displaying a 3-dimensional rendering of a building model, a hierarchical structure of building model data, and a Construction Operations Building Information Exchange (COBie) spreadsheet, the building model, hierarchical structure of building model data, and a COBie spreadsheet being associatively linked.

Methods and systems for generating user interface for processing building information modeling (BIM)-based data

A method for operating a building information modeling (BIM) system is provided. The method includes at a BIM server, in response to receiving a save tri-dimensional data command from a client computing device, associatively mapping identification data in each of a building model, a hierarchical structure of building model data, and a Construction Operations Building Information Exchange (COBie) spreadsheet and storing a representation of the associative mapping of the identification data for display in at least one of the BIM server and a client computing device in electronic communication with the server over a network.
