In Building Information Modelling (BIM) based projects, the project models developed during the design phase are not directly utilized in the Facilities Management (FM) phase. Leveraging these design phase models without reproduction in the FM phase is crucial, as it facilitates and expedites the transition between the design and FM phases. This aspect warrants particular attention in large-scale BIM projects. However, projects utilizing the BIM system for FM purposes often encounter inadequacies in their models, such as insufficient information or low-quality data that fails to meet FM requirements. This study focuses on identifying the challenges associated with transitioning from the design stage to the FM stage, using a hazelnut plant facility designed by a US Company and an Energy Transfer Facility designed by a German Company as case studies. Through interviews with project stakeholders from both design companies and a group of FM specialists, the research captures diverse perspectives on this issue. By analyzing and evaluating the perspectives of different stakeholders, including two distinct design companies and a group of FM specialists, this research aims to propose potential solutions to facilitate a seamless transition between the design and FM phases.
