Future Decisions connects interactive 3D IFC models with live and historical building data.
Users can navigate the building, select spaces or assets, inspect performance, identify faults and report issues directly within the model — all through a standard web browser.

Traditional dashboards show lists, graphs and alarms. Our interactive BIM and IFC environment shows exactly where the equipment, space or problem is located within the building.

The IFC model becomes part of the Future Decisions Digital Building Platform rather than remaining a static design or handover file.
Navigate floors, rooms, systems and individual building components using an interactive browser-based 3D model.
Select an asset or space to access associated BMS points, sensors, meters, documents and performance data.
Raise faults, add comments, record evidence, assign responsibility and track the issue through to resolution.

Faults can be linked directly to the affected asset or location within the 3D model.
This gives engineers, operators and contractors a shared visual understanding of the problem without relying solely on equipment names, spreadsheets or written descriptions.
Each fault record captures:
Future Decisions can connect model objects to the full range of building data sources:
Asset Condition Legend

Operating within normal parameters
Warning
Approaching threshold or degraded performance

We use IFC to support an open and portable approach to building information.
IFC models can be connected to different BMS platforms, sensor systems, asset registers and operational data sources without making the building dependent on a single controls or BIM vendor. Where appropriate, BIM Collaboration Format can be used to exchange model-linked issues with compatible BIM and facilities-management systems.
Most BIM models are created during design and construction but become difficult to access or maintain once the building enters operation.
Future Decisions extends the value of these models by connecting them to the building's ongoing operational data.

BIM and IFC models work alongside:
This creates a common view of the building — connecting its physical spaces, operational systems, live data and engineering knowledge.
