ONUMA, Inc.’s BIMstorm Metro - Web Based Collaboration Lessons Learned by BIM Education Co-op members

Expand on web-based collaboration processes demonstrated in Award Winning BIMSTORMs with rapidly

deployed tools such as Excel, Google Docs, Twitter and OPS.

Teach people that their knowledge can be presented in hand written or verbal contributions and be a Valuable part of a BIMSTORM

Los Angeles Metro planning processes start with many options and filters down to a Final Four and then two winners

A swirling storm of ideas start BIMSTORM and then pinpoints the best items on Google Earth ... See images on next slide.

blogspot.com

Blog Spot blog sevices are the best best real-time infomation distribution used yet in a BIMSTORM.

Extensive linking presents key information quickly and consistently.

All professionals and concerned stake holders have value to the team. You only don’t have value if you don’t share your knowledge.

The ONUMA Planning System is a web-based collaboration tool. It is focused on BIM but allows diverse communication.

This video of the first BIMSTORM Metro presentation is stored there.

Information about the BIMSTORM Metro is stored on Google Maps and linked to the central BIM server in OPS.

Expanding the information relevant to one Metro station community and making it relevant to many communities can increase productivity.

Research includes linking video “evidence” in the Model server. Traditional research also can be stored in the Knowledge Repository.

Once there is ample data, the Brain Storming of BIMSTORM begins.

People share data and see immediate implications of what happens when: “You got your peanuter butter in my chocolate.”

Even hand drawn data from previous projects can be made relevant.

Fast and furious at times... confusing and frustrating at times... just as revolutions are...

and just in time!

Learn to organize the chaos of real projects with realistic

views in a virtual world where mistakes don’t hurt ...

as much.

Competition Requirements from the Client are captured and linked into the project model server for easy access.

Client success stories can be seen and understood so their processes can be repeated in the project.

Then the balls of data swirling in the BIMSTORM brain storm can be pointed at specific locations on Google Earth.

Complex knowledge collected and given visual clarity with the BIMSTORM processes makes it easier to form concensus decisions.

We don’t care what you decide. We just want you to decide based on accurate, agreed upon data.

At least that is the official position of the BIM Education Co-op.
