IBPDI – setting the new real estate standard

The International Building Performance & Data Initiative (IBPDI) is creating the data standard for real estate. Initiated by BuildingMinds, Microsoft, pom+ and RICS, the industry-specific Common Data Model will empower real estate companies to benchmark their business across all management areas in accordance with international standards. With the help of industry-specific KPIs, it can implement AI for advanced business intelligence. The data model is publicly available via Github and the expertise is shared with IBPDI members and beyond. Find out more at www.ibpdi.org.

The pioneering project with Schindler – leveraging IoT to improve performance and well-being

BuildingMinds and Schindler are collaborating on a co-innovation project that takes corporate real estate management to a whole new level: the digitalization of the Schindler Campus in Berlin. Millions of data points have been interlinked and integrated into our cloud-based portfolio management platform to deliver near real-time insights on space utilization, people well-being and much more.

More than IoT – it’s IoT+

BuildingMinds is a founding partner of the IoT+ Network, which is supported by the government-funded de:hub initiative. The network’s mission is to empower the Internet of Things across all industries. Real estate is one of the areas in which IoT can make an exceptional impact. With the help of IoT, data can be collected in real time along entire life cycles, and, in the process, offer insights at a previously unattained level – and not just for new “smart buildings”, but for existing properties as well. Considering the ecosystem as a whole is a major challenge that can only be mastered in cooperation with experts from business, science and technology. As part of the digitization, standardization, networking and interoperability of real estate data, IoT can significantly contribute to greater transparency, increased efficiency and ecological sustainability.
