The request as filed

What the requester wrote on the intake form

Problem
Maintenance of the chamber’s buildings and branches runs on a calendar, not on actual condition, so money goes where it is not needed and committee and event halls fail without warning.
Current state
There is no single digital model of the buildings, and as-built drawings and systems data sit in separate files per contractor.
Objective
A digital twin of the new headquarters that combines building information models, sensors and hall occupancy to predict faults and direct maintenance from handover day.
Expected scope
A 3D model of the new HQ, sensors in the halls and MEP systems, integration with smart access and hall booking, and predictive models.

Expected benefits

Savings

Maintenance cost down 18% through condition-based work

Time & speed

Faults caught six months before they show

Data governance comes before the analytics platform

From Sectoral Committee Recommendations Tracker

At the initiation gate the Strategy & Projects Steering Committee made NDMO classification of member and committee data a condition.

Recommendation: Tie any analytics or AI request to the data-governance outputs and name the data owners before evaluation.

National-platform integration needs early agreements

From My Business Portal 2.0 — the Unified Member Journey

Integration agreements with the data-owning agencies and the bus operator slipped 11 weeks because they only started after the contract award.

Recommendation: Start integration requests and their agreed time limits during feasibility, and plan a full integration sprint.
