Revolutionizing Facility Management
Discover how our proprietary deliverables, BAM® (Base Asset Model) and SAM® (Systems Asset Model), bring unprecedented accuracy and efficiency to facility management.
ARC’s BAM® Program for Spatial Data Management
From Building Documentation to Building Intelligence
Most building information is created for projects. ARC’s Base Asset Model methodology transforms that information into a long-term resource that helps owners plan, manage, maintain, and improve their facilities throughout their entire lifecycle.
Our integrated approach combines four complementary solutions that work together to create a trusted foundation for better building decisions.
BAM®
Know Your Building.
Simplified Data:
Only the essential information for day-to-day facility operations is included.
Efficient Access:
Critical data is available at your fingertips, while non-essential details are stored digitally for future use.
Enhanced Efficiency:
A clean and focused dataset improves facility operations by reducing complexity.
SAM®
Know Your Systems.
The Systems Asset Model (SAM®) organizes and documents the building’s critical systems into a structured framework that helps owners better understand, maintain, and manage the infrastructure that keeps their facilities operating efficiently.
Comprehensive System Details:
Includes in-depth documentation for all key building systems, ensuring each asset is meticulously cataloged for reliable facility management.
Organized Classification:
Data is systematically organized into primary and secondary classifications, making complex systems easy to locate and manage.
Collaborative Accuracy:
Developed in partnership with specialty consultants, SAM® provides a high level of accuracy and detail for long-term facility maintenance and planning.
