  • Abstract:

    Infrastructure Asset Management (InfraAM)/Facilities Management (FM) representing operation and maintenance (O&M) phase, accounts for a substantial portion (85%) of project’s total cost, and hence, there is urgent need to invest in technology for infrastructure maintenance, repair, and rehabilitation. This can be done by implementing digital technologies, like Building Information Modeling (BIM), that can help in 3D visualization, 4D scheduling, 5D costing, 6D sustainability, and 7D O&M throughout service life of project. But, BIM’s implementation during O&M faces various challenges and in order to understand those challenges, a systematic literature review (SLR) through PRISMA technique was conducted using 89 peer-reviewed papers from three databases and quantitative and qualitative analysis were performed. The literature revealed various critical challenges (CCs) and success factors (SFs) that influences BIM implementation in O&M phase, but lacks interrelationship between them. Hence, the current study linked various CCs and SFs through a theoretical approach. The study found that role of government and contractual frameworks can help to eliminate most of the challenges. This novel approach could provide significant contributions by helping practitioners and policymakers to understand connections between CCs and role of SFs as potential solutions for enhancing 7D-BIM implementation.
