Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Facilities Management (FM) systems can be utilized to create a digital repository for each building component for the management of buildings, facilities, and other fixed assets. The adoption of BIM in FM is evolving, starting with the design, construction, maintenance, and operating phases of a building's life cycle for better organized, systematic, and flexible building information management. However, BIM research for facility management is still in its infancy, and implementation in this field is even l ess widespread. There is a demand to produce an up-to-date information concerning the barriers of integrating BIM with FM. Therefore, this paper conducts a systematic literature review (SLR) based on twenty (20) research publications produced from 2018 to 2022 on BIM integration in FM to examine its implementation barriers. The results show similar patterns and areas of research from four (4) insights: people, process, technology, and legal-related issues, together with the in-depth barriers of implementing BIM in FM based on these prevalent areas. The identification of these barriers can help the facility managers and authorities to successfully integrate BIM in FM which would further lead to a better performance and maintenance in asset management. © 2023, Construction Research Institute of Malaysia.
