Digital Twins

Live models linking physical assets with real-time operational data. Designed for facilities management and lifecycle tracking.

Service Overview

A digital twin is a live, operational replica of a built asset: connected to sensor data, facility systems, and maintenance records to enable real-time intelligence about building performance. At EZ-VDC, we build digital twins on Autodesk Tandem and Forma, bridging the gap between the construction BIM model and the operational asset. The result is a facility management platform that shows not just what was built, but what is happening right now: energy consumption, space utilization, equipment status, and maintenance due dates.

How We Work
1

Requirements Workshop

We work with facility managers, operations teams, and owners to define the use cases, KPIs, and data sources that will drive the digital twin, before any configuration begins.

2

Asset Data Mapping

BIM model elements are mapped to the asset register, enriching objects with manufacturer data, warranty dates, maintenance schedules, and O&M documentation links.

3

Platform Configuration

Autodesk Tandem or the selected platform is configured with the asset model, user roles, and data streams, including API connections to BMS, IoT sensors, and CMMS systems.

4

Sensor Integration & Testing

IoT sensors, energy meters, and facility systems are integrated and tested, with data validation ensuring readings are accurate and properly attributed to model spaces.

5

Dashboard & Handoff

We build role-specific dashboards in Power BI or the platform native viewer, deliver end-user training, and provide post-handoff support for data quality and system adoption.

Why It Matters
Predictive maintenance from sensor data reduces equipment failures by up to 40%
Energy optimization dashboards in documented case studies show 15–25% energy cost reductions
Single source of truth for all facility information eliminates the paper-based asset register
Space utilization data drives smarter real estate decisions and retrofit planning
The construction BIM investment continues generating value through the full building lifecycle
