  In today’s data-driven construction and operations landscape,   Asset Information Management (AIM)   isn’t just a buzzword it’s a necessity. With the increasing adoption of   Building Information Modeling (BIM)   and the ISO 19650 series, particularly   ISO 19650-3 , AIM is becoming a cornerstone of efficient and smart facilities management. But what exactly is AIM? How does ISO 19650-3 shape it? And more importantly, how can your organization implement it without getting lost in technical jargon or bloated processes? Let’s break it down  minimal theory, maximum application. What Is Asset Information Management (AIM)? AIM is the structured process of managing digital information about a built asset  after construction is complete , throughout its operational lifecycle. It covers everything from equipment databases and 3D models to maintenance manuals and performance metrics. ISO 19650-3 defines the rules of the game during this operational phase...

  Imagine you're standing in an open field on the outskirts of a rapidly growing tech hub. The air is still, but the potential hum of servers, routers, and chilled air fills your imagination. This bare land may soon become a high-performance colocation hub or a hyperscale data center, but only if you get one thing right   technical due diligence . Before the first cable is laid, before a single line is drawn in Revit or AutoCAD, there's a phase of the project that feels invisible yet defines everything that follows. It’s the quiet, often overlooked hero of successful data center development:  Technical Due Diligence (TDD) . Let’s unfold this story not as a checklist, but as a narrative that explores why it matters, how Desapex brings it to life, and the real value it delivers. What is Technical Due Diligence? Technical due diligence is a systematic, multi-disciplinary assessment that ensures a site is viable environmentally, legally, technically, and operationally for a d...

  In the face of the ongoing climate crisis, there’s an increasing focus on sustainability and the role businesses play in mitigating their environmental impact. Terms like " carbon neutrality " and   " NetZero emissions "   are now frequently discussed in boardrooms and policy circles, but what exactly do these terms mean, and how can companies effectively work toward achieving them? This blog delves into the differences between carbon neutrality and net-zero emissions and how businesses can take actionable steps to combat climate change. What’s the Difference Between Carbon Neutrality and Net Zero Emissions? Both carbon neutrality and net-zero emissions aim to minimize environmental damage by addressing greenhouse gas emissions, but they differ in scope and implementation. While they are often used interchangeably, they represent two distinct targets with unique approaches. Why Understanding the Distinction Matters The key difference between carbon neutrality and ...
