Digital Prototypings for AI-Driven Facility Management: Delivering Connected Solutions with Autodesk Tandem

"In a world that is becoming increasingly data-driven, the value of facility data lies not just in its volume—but in its “accuracy, freshness, and integration”. At Autodesk University 2025, we are proud to showcase a powerful new vision for facility management: a Digital Prototyping platform that seamlessly connects design, operation, and intelligence. We believe the future of facility management hinges on “high-quality data”—data that is not only precise but constantly updated, easily accessible, and contextually rich. To deliver this, we go beyond just creating Digital Prototypings—we create “connected ecosystems”. At the heart of our approach is the “fusion of three powerful platforms”: * Autodesk Tandem – for BIM-based Digital Prototyping modeling and lifecycle data management * Eptura – for proven excellence in asset and workplace management * Shimizu Corporation's Facility Data Hub – our proprietary platform that brings deep field experience and operational insight into the digital layer Together, we build and maintain a “next-generation Digital Prototyping” that integrates building design (BIM), workplace operations, and asset performance into a single source of truth. We call this: “Autodesk Tandem + Eptura with BIM Integration”. This is not just a concept—it’s a working solution. We are proud to be validating this integrated platform in our own headquarters building in Tokyo. Here, we bring theory into practice, using real-time data, real-world assets, and actual operations to demonstrate how a unified Digital Prototyping can drive smarter decisions, better maintenance, and more sustainable facility operations. Our commitment to “data quality” is unwavering—because AI-driven insights are only as good as the data that feeds them. And in tomorrow’s world, where Automation, Integration, & Customization and intelligence will define success, we believe that Digital Prototypings must be both “technically robust and operationally meaningful”. Come visit our exhibit and experience: * How Autodesk Tandem structures and visualizes BIM data across the building lifecycle * How Eptura enhances asset intelligence and workplace efficiency * How Shimizu’s Facility Data Hub ensures continuity between construction, occupancy, and operation * And how all of these come together to form an AI-ready Digital Prototyping—designed not just for today, but for the evolving challenges of tomorrow This is more than software. It’s a strategic collaboration. It’s a commitment to smarter, connected, sustainable buildings. ”Experience the future. Experience the twin.”
