Application of MCDM and BIM for evaluation of asset redevelopment solutions

Abstract

The current paper analyses the application of Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) and Building Information Modelling (BIM) techniques for integrated information management when assessing redevelopment solutions of former industrial buildings with emphasis on sustainable development. The theoretical approach of complex decision-making model for asset redevelopment is proposed and practical case study of old equipment factory redevelopment is presented. Sixteen criteria combined in three groups as economic, environmental and technological indicators are analysed both with ranking of possible redevelopment alternatives of the building using Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment method with grey attributes scores (WASPAS-G). The selection of the most rational redevelopment solution for analysed projects is also supported by BIM techniques and allows implementation of whole project life-cycle management strategy in real life.
