New technologies regarding construction, materials and facility management have led to the successful implementation of smart and more sustainable buildings. This is of special interest for the management of large and complex public buildings. However, most of these types of buildings were built in Europe during the previous century, when those technologies were still a matter of research. The appearance of Building Information Modelling (BIM) and the combined use of it with other advances in Facility Management (FM) as well as Internet of Things (IoT), Big Data and others, has opened the door to the possible transformation of such type of buildings into more efficient smart buildings without very large investments. In this study, this was studied thoroughly. In addition, the advantages and possibilities were assessed on a case study performed in the Civil Engineering School at Universidad Politécnica de Madrid built in 1969. The main objective of the paper was to show the details and possibilities to transform the building into a smart and more sustainable building by using BIM-FM techniques and self-designed sensors. The conclusions showed that using a three-dimensional model as the center of the management together with the connection with other applications, databases and facility management tools can transform the building into a Smart Building. In addition, the management of the system can be done from the web, nearing the information to the management staff and to the user. All advances were self-developed in order to satisfy the specific needs of the building.

The COVID-19 pandemic, with more than 49.7 million reported cases and over 1.2 million deaths globally confirmed deaths at the time of writing, demands global action to counteract this virus. It is widely accepted that COVID-19 is a long-term pandemic that will require a constant and innovative range of mitigation approaches to protect public health. This paper provides infrastructure facility management (FM) systems based on Building Information Modeling (BIM) to reduce the likelihood of COVID-19 infections indoors. Although there are several factors for dealing with COVID-19, the sole focus of this project is to reduce crowding and facilitate social distancing between occupants. The significance of this research relies on the use of mathematical methods, BIM, programming as well as FM tools and databases to achieve safer management of large and populated public buildings during the COVID-19 pandemic. The infrastructure management example refers to the Civil Engineering School at the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. It is based on mathematical applications to find the paths of people paths inside the infrastructure and is synchronized with in-house developed software and the Internet domain as source and input data.

The aim of this paper was to provide a Building Information Modeling (BIM)-based management system for the Civil Engineering School (ETSICCP) at the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid with a long-term development perspective. A Building Information Modeling (BIM) management system for complex infrastructure facilities demands a detailed 3-Dimensional model according to future management requirements. In this study, the infrastructure of the ETSICCP was modeled on various phases and synchronized with not only external educational information but also with facility management (FM) parameters. The methodology followed in this study ranges from the blank paper to a BIM-based detailed FM system oriented to educational scheduling throughout the infrastructure providing real time information synchronized with spreadsheets and a 3-D model. The result of this paper provides multiples future management lines, like COVID-19 BIM-management or synchronization with local public transports’ applications (mainly metro and bus transport systems), through a public accessible Application Programming Interface (API). The significance of this research relies on the generation of an information and management system, based on a BIM model of a university campus. This project was designed for all the agents involved in its operation, students, lecturers, and managers. All these agents have a level of access appropriate to their needs and functions within the institution.
