7. © 2005 Autodesk7 What’s the Business Problem ? 2002 National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Study  Quantified efficiency losses in the U.S. capital facilities industry from inadequate interoperability  Design, engineering, facilities management, and business processes software systems  Redundant paper records management  Entire facility life-cycle.  Estimated inadequate interoperability costs $15.8 billion  “Likely to be a conservative figure” - NIST  Two-thirds of costs borne by owners and operators, predominantly during ongoing facility operation and maintenance. Rule of thumb: 90% of cost of a facility incurred during operations and maintenance Infrastructure Solutions Division
