45. Information Actions – Operation Phase

Published on July 8, 2026 | Last Updated on July 8, 2026

This post is a follow-up and an extension of the Information Cycle Model (post 44), which connects several Information Milestones from the LITE framework through three high-level actions: Prepare, Manage, Use. Each action is composed of several forward execution activities paired with reverse measurement activities [1] that verify accuracy, validity and quality against the previous milestone(s) [2]. The model also identifies three Information Actors - design, delivery (construction), and utilisation (operation) responsible for these actions.

The Operation Phase – Information Actions Model introduced below identifies the granular [3] information activities during the utilisation stage of an asset lifecycle, including the relation within the Digital-Physical Couple. This couple is not specific to the utilisation phase but is generally understood by the industry (using the Digital Twin terminology) as a post-delivery artefact that needs to be disconnected from its origins and reconnected to operations and maintenance through specialised frameworks, ontologies, standards, classifications and systems. This separation is, as per the LITE framework, artificial and would not survive any serious scrutiny of where or when the separation line resides. Large assets are made of granular assets, each with its own lifecycle. Even if one asset type/scale [4] is in one phase of its lifecycle (e.g. a brick wall being built is in its delivery phase), its parent, sibling, or child asset may be in another lifecycle phase (e.g. a brick in the same brick wall is in its utilisation phase).

Information flow is continuous and cyclical as presented in the LITE framework. For illustrative purposes, Figure 1 below focuses on the operation/utilisation phase and presents the main information flows as actions connecting clusters of nodes:

Figure 1. Information Actions Model – Operation Phase | v1.0 at OScale 9, GLevel 3. This model nests inside Post 44’s Information Cycle Model (OScale 8, GLevel 2)

Figure 1 is a stylised concept map (Novak & Cañas, 2006) with multiple nodes, links, and labels.

  • The nodes are grouped into three Clusters: Actions, Assets, and Access Points. (grey background in Figure 1). To facilitate referencing, nodes have a single emphasised Capital letter (e.g., "D" in Digital Assets and "A" in Physical Assets).
  • The links are the Action Flows that connect cluster members. Flows are numbered and labelled using terms from the BIMei Ontology [5]. Numbers are for visual reference and do not indicate a sequence or priority.

Clusters

Actions Cluster

The Actions cluster represents the high-level Information Actions – Prepare [P], Manage [M], and Use [U] - that need to be performed during the Operation Phase. These actions in the Operation Phase are connected to – and may even be concurrent with – the corresponding Information Actions in preceding and subsequent phases (refer to Information Cycle model).

Assets Cluster

The Assets node represents the intertwined relations between the Physical Assets (also referred to here as the Physical Twin) and the Digital Assets (the corresponding Digital Twin). A Digital Twin is an accurate digital representation – through continuously updated models, documents, and data sets – that mirrors the geometric and informational attributes of a Physical Asset:

  • Digital Assets represent all the Models, Documents, and Data sets generated and maintained throughout an Asset’s lifecycle. These Digital Assets may be (a) hosted on local servers or in the cloud; (b) accessed through dedicated desktop applications or Application Programming Interfaces (API)s; and (c) updated either manually and/or automatically through Asset Coupling with corresponding Physical Assets; and
  • Physical Assets represent either a single Physical Asset of any Asset Scale, or a portfolio of assets, their systems, components, and parts. These Physical Assets are designed/built during earlier lifecycle phases; renovated during the Operation Phase; and then potentially demolished and/or reused in other projects at the end of their lifecycle.

Access Points Cluster

The Access Points node represents where information can be accessed – these include:

  • Physical Stores represent the dedicated rooms, storage cabinets (and similar) where tactile media – e.g. printed maps, hand drawings, and backup tapes - are stored. Physical Stores may be onsite – where the asset is located - or offsite;
  • Digital Vaults represent the computer servers and cloud services – owned by the asset operator or by third parties – that host the digital information;
  • External Sources represent the databases and datasets which, when linked to, extend the information available for management and utilisation (Mirarchi, Pavan, De Marco, Wang, & Song, 2018). These databases/datasets may include City Models, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), real-time traffic data, historic weather data, and similar. For asset operations specifically, External Sources also include semantic layers such as Brick Schema, Project Haystack, and RealEstateCore – aligning equipment, points, spaces, and portfolios – and other data architectures - e.g. the Unified Namespace (UNS) - to carry live Actual-Status signals from operational systems.
  • Information Viewers represent the software tools – e.g. Acrobat, Revit, Solibri, Excel, Tableau, etc. – which can be used to display, manipulate and populate a multitude of Information Views (refer to Project Information Taxonomy); and
  • Tactile Media represent all the materials printed for reference and utilisation. These include paper documents, 2D drawings, 3D prints, and similar.

Information Flows

The three clusters and their members are linked by information activities: each is a forward Execution activity, paired with a reverse Measurement activity that checks it and is governed, as per the LITE framework, by an Information Protocol (PR). Table 1 below clarifies the flow of information during the Utilisation/Operation Phase:

Please note the following:

  • Depending on the Degree of Autonomy (DoA), these activities can be conducted manually, with machine assistance, or autonomously.
  • In Figure 1, the D, M, V, E, and I nodes (dark grey) collectively represent the Common Information Environment [9], a distributed, digital ecosystem that enables the collation and utilisation of information by multiple stakeholders. In LITE terms, this Common Information Environment is the Defined tier (Tier 1) of the Information Tiers; as these activities inspect, harmonise, and normalise information, it becomes a managed Unified Information Pool (Tier 2), and once information shares a common schema, an integrated Information Platform (Tier 3). Read together with the linked External Sources (Referenced, Tier 0) and continuously updated feeds (Optimised, Tier 4), the nodes shown here span all five Information Tiers.
  • Most Information Activities pertain to the Information Management Topic [10] within the Technical Competency Set; there are four activity sets, including multiple activities, pertaining to the Operation Competency Set ().
  • The tools, standards, and schemas named as examples throughout this post - including IFC, IDS, and bSDD to COBie, AOH, Brick, Project Haystack, RealEstateCore, the Asset Administration Shell (AAS), and a Unified Namespace (UNS) - are illustrative, not prescriptive. This model is part of the LITE framework (or metaframework) and is intended as a neutral skeleton that maps each of these to their lifecycle roles rather than favouring any single stack [11]. Different configurations of tools, standards, and schemas across the whole asset lifecycle can be sequenced, federated, and eventually integrated.

Asset Unit Example

The twenty-three activities may feel abstract until we follow a single Asset Unit through them. As an example, this section applies the model to an elevator system (an Asset Unit) as it enters the Operation Phase. Let's assume it already carries a handover baseline (COBie [12]/AOH [13]) and that its Digital Couple/Twin is an AAS [14] wrapper that references up-to-date 3D digital models, documents, and datasets. The Digital Asset is kept in step with the Physical Asset through the Synchronise Action, while a Unified Namespace [15] (UNS) streams live signals (e.g. door cycles, motor current, and fault codes) that the Brick ontology maps to the unit's register within the Integrated Information Platform. Each forward execution action has a reverse measurement mirror:

  1. During procurement, the operator requests and identifies the asset information needed to run and maintain the unit – model, serial number, spares, and maintenance regime – and verifies that the set is complete enough for planned maintenance
  2. During installation, the as-installed condition is captured while it is still observable – some evidence can only be taken before the shaft is closed up – and stored against the unit’s record
  3. Upon commissioning, the captured geometry is verified against the physical unit and the twin is validated for drift
  4. During operations, the unit's live performance is evaluated against thresholds, so faults are predicted rather than discovered. When a service call is logged, the collected data is verified for completeness before it is updated in the record.
  5. At the end of life, the unit is decommissioned, and its reusable parts (assets) and records are assessed for reuse

This example exemplifies the Right-to-Left [16] (asset design/selection <-- asset construction/delivery <-- asset operation/utilisation) or, more broadly, the LITE framework's counter-clockwise flows that start from the Asset Unit's defined purpose - why it is needed, rather than from what it is or how it can be delivered.

Summary

The Information Actions Model for the Operation Phase sets out how information is prepared, managed, and used - and, in reverse, measured - to support the operation and maintenance of physical assets throughout their service life. Rather than a set of isolated tasks, its activities form an interconnected flow that links (a) Digital Assets, (b) Physical Assets, their (c) Access Points, and (d) operational tools through a (e) Common Information Environment that is progressively (f) defined, managed, and integrated across the LITE Information Tiers. Because each forward Execution activity is paired with a reverse Measurement one, information is not only captured, harmonised, maintained, exchanged, and applied, but also checked for accuracy, validity, and quality- thus keeping the Digital–Physical Couple continuously aligned. Each activity can, in turn, be read as a discrete Action Statement, making the model suitable not only for conceptual communication but also for competency modelling, workflow automation, knowledge-graph integration, and LITE-enabled agentic execution.

Endnotes

[1] LITE defines a clean decomposition: Information ActionsActivities sub-ActivitiesTaskssub-TasksSteps

[2] LITE defines four information flows: forward flows (Execution actions), reverse flows (Measurement actions), inward flows (Capture actions), and outward flows (Sharing actions). Figure 1 focuses on execution actions, with Table 1 listing only execution and measurement actions.

[6] As in previous publications, activities – as well as abilities and outcomes – can be classified using the Competency Hierarchy, which includes several Competency Tiers, Competency Sets, and Competency Topics (Succar, Sher, & Williams, 2013). Doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.autcon.2013.05.016. http://bit.ly/BIMPaperA6

[7] Protocols are based on International Standards (e.g. ISO/CEN), National Specifications (e.g. UK’s PAS1192 series), community-developed ‘standards’ (e.g. Level of Accuracy) and applicable project- and client-specific requirements.

[8] Some capture activities are time-bound. Information about a Physical Asset may only be observable at an irreversible moment (e.g. before a wall is closed up); where that evidential moment passes un-captured, the information becomes Unverifiable (UVF) - a state no downstream loop can fully recover. This constraint sits at the Information Gates, where evidence capture can be required before progression. For a discussion covering this Verifiability, please refer to David Shepherd's LinkedIn post on June 6, 2026: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/david-shepherd-bim_this-excellent-firestopping-video-demonstrates-ugcPost-7468954482148835328-8tnU/

[9] The Common Information Environment should not be confused with the Common Data Environment (CDE) as defined in the United Kingdom’s PAS1192-2 (BSI, 2013) and later in ISO 19650 series (ISO/DIS, 2018). Depending on the capabilities of the actors executing the actions, the Common Information Environment may either be a Shared Document Environment, a Federated Modelling Environment, or an Integrated Data Environment.

[12] Construction-Operations Building Information Exchange (COBie) is a specification for the capture and delivery of design/ construction information to Facility Managers. COBie Specifications can be collated using a spreadsheet template or a COBie-enabled software solution.

[13] Asset Operations Handover (AOH) is a standardised framework by buildingSMART International intended to complement or replace COBie. AOH is intended to facilitate the digital transfer of construction and maintenance information to facility owners

[14] Asset Administration Shell (AAS) is a globally recognised standardised digital representation of an industrial asset (a physical product, machine, or component). AAS is formalised under IEC 63278-1:2023, Asset Administration Shell for industrial applications - Part 1: Asset Administration Shell structure.

[15] Unified Namespace (UNS) is a data architecture or design pattern used for real-time data connections between data producers and consumers, typically applied at enterprise scale or in industrial operations environments. Using UNS reduces the need for multiple systems javing to communicate directly with one another.
