The value of Building Information Modeling (BIM) extends far beyond design and construction. With LOD 600 (Level of Development 600), property owners receive a live Digital Twin that revolutionizes building operations and asset management post-handover.
What is an LOD 600 Digital Twin?
While standard construction models (LOD 400/500) show how a building was constructed, an LOD 600 model integrates as-built geometry with operational metadata—linking physical HVAC equipment, switchgear, and plumbing fixtures to digital maintenance records, warranties, and performance sensors.
“An LOD 600 digital twin transforms a static building model into an active management asset that lowers operating costs for the next 30 years.”

Post-Handover Value for Property Managers
- Predictive Maintenance: Facilities teams receive automated alerts for servicing equipment before breakdowns occur.
- Energy Management: Tracking real-time power consumption against building energy simulations to optimize HVAC settings.
- Instant Asset Records: Maintenance technicians access exact equipment model numbers, serials, and warranty documents directly from the 3D model.
OHM Core Engineering delivers LOD 600 BIM models that give developers and facility managers total control over their assets.
