Does Bildstak support COBie?
Yes, Bildstak supports COBie. It reads COBie spreadsheets and validates their completeness against the 16 standard sheets, linking asset and handover data back to the IFC elements they describe — so you can query handover readiness and score gaps before practical completion.
Yes, Bildstak has native COBie support. COBie (Construction Operations Building Information Exchange) is the standardised handover format that captures asset data — equipment lists, warranties, spare parts, maintenance schedules — across 16 defined sheets, and Bildstak reads and queries it directly.
How Bildstak uses COBie:
- Handover readiness scoring — Bildstak checks which COBie sheets are populated and which required fields are missing, giving you a completion percentage by floor, system or asset type before the handover deadline.
- Element linking — COBie components reference IFC elements by GlobalID. Bildstak resolves those references so the asset record is joined to the 3D element, its BCF history and any RFIs that affected it during construction.
- AI queries — ask "which mechanical equipment on Level 4 is missing warranty data in COBie?" and get a cited answer drawn from the live COBie data.
- FM handover package — COBie data combined with the as-built IFC model and close-out documentation gives the facilities management team a complete, queryable asset record at handover.
- IDS alignment — if an IDS has been specified for the project's information requirements, Bildstak can check whether the COBie data satisfies the IDS rules.
For clients and asset managers, Bildstak's COBie module reduces the risk of receiving an incomplete handover dataset that has to be manually corrected post-completion.
