COBie (Construction Operations Building Information Exchange) BIM Services

MaRS Trans USA is the leading name in the AEC sector for outsourcing COBie BIM services. We provide COBie services globally to keep a track of clients' project data sheets and other important documents. This data is very important for facility managers.

COBie is a sort of data format that takes care of important project information such as equipment lists, warranties, product data sheets, spare parts lists, and maintenance schedules. The given set of information is significant to back up the operations, maintenance, and asset management after the building comes into use.

At MaRS Trans USA, our experts highly focus on clients' needs and requirements and deliver the COBie data concerned with project management, information verification, and COBie delivery for the project.

The COBie services have the potential to be enlisted among the key deliverables since it is linked with the level 2 BIM. Moreover, COBIe contains important files like COBie spreadsheets, native BIM files, PDF documents, and other information that helps speed up the project's data generation process. Moreover, the COBie Excel sheet is a compilation of different other sheets that includes instructions, contacts, facility, floor, space, zone, type, component, and system.

Get in touch with us if you are looking for timely delivery of COBie services with full-time team support and assistance from our experienced BIM professionals.

It offers a list of assets
Designing gets easy with COBie data of assets
Helps speed up the designing process and engineering decision making

Contractors

Delivery of precise construction data
Save time and effort on equipment and system surveys

Facility managers

The smooth way into the documentation concerned with equipment and spaces
Easy operations and maintenance using adequate COBie datasheet
No need for manual documentation and an unorganized format

FAQs On Our Cobie BIM Services

How does COBie integration enhance long-term asset performance?

We allow facility owners and managers track and maintain assets more easily. Our COBie files include details like space use, component specs, and maintenance schedules—key for managing assets over their full lifecycle.

What makes our COBie data extraction process more efficient than traditional methods?

We use custom scripts and workflows to pull COBie data straight from BIM models. This speeds up documentation, reduces errors, and avoids repeating work, while staying fully aligned with COBie and BIM Level 2 standards.

How do we tailor COBie deliverables to meet client-specific FM requirements?

At MaRS Trans USA, we customize COBie outputs based on the client’s facility management platform and operational goals. Whether the client uses CMMS, CAFM, or an IWMS system, we format the COBie spreadsheets and structure accordingly for seamless integration.

What role does COBie play in digital twin integration?

COBie provides the foundational asset and space data needed for accurate digital twin modeling. Our team ensures that structured COBie datasets align with BIM and FM standards, enabling real-time monitoring, maintenance planning, and space management in smart building environments.

How early should COBie coordination begin in a BIM project?

COBie coordination should begin during the early design phase. We integrate COBie data fields progressively throughout the design, construction, and commissioning stages to ensure that nothing is missed and the final deliverables are accurate and complete.

What challenges do clients face in COBie compliance, and how do we address them?

Clients often face issues like missing attributes, inconsistent formatting, or incomplete documentation. We mitigate this through detailed QA/QC workflows, automated validation tools, and structured templates aligned with COBie’s classification, data model, and format standards.

How do we help general contractors fulfill COBie-related contract obligations?

We extract equipment and system data directly from Revit and other BIM tools and populate COBie-compliant spreadsheets. This ensures that contractors meet their handover documentation requirements without incurring delays or penalties.

How do we ensure COBie files remain relevant post-construction?

Our COBie deliverables are formatted to serve as a long-term operational asset, not just as a one-time handover document. We provide logically organized and editable spreadsheets that support ongoing maintenance, upgrades, and asset management.
