Innovative construction and operation
Digitalization in the construction industry
The MPG has made good progress in digitizing its own construction and property management. In addition to the use of Building Information Modeling (BIM), the facility management of its xxm² in particular has made great progress with software that maps all existing properties and provides significant support for operations.

Digital future
Construction software for documenting and evaluating data, artificial intelligence and big data for optimizing workflows and identifying problems more quickly. Taking into account data from returns from the Internet of Things, for example, improves the management of available resources. Digital twins of campuses or individual buildings offer the possibility of an individual interacting without having to be on site in person. BIM provides the data basis for such simulations. 3D printing or prefabricated modular buildings are already in use on MPG construction sites. Future topic: circular economy The effort to strengthen the circular economy in the MPG's construction is highly relevant from an ecological and economic point of view. Building materials that have been used once should be reused and construction waste should be kept to a minimum. In addition, however, innovative approaches and sustainable processes need to be integrated in order to optimize or replace existing processes during the construction phases.
Future topic: Circular economy
The effort to strengthen the circular economy in the MPG's construction sector is highly relevant from both ecological and economic perspectives. Once used, building materials should be reused and construction waste minimized. Furthermore, innovative approaches and sustainable processes must be integrated to optimize or replace existing procedures during the construction phases. Circular business models throughout the building life cycles, for example, in the areas of heat generation, office equipment, or material recovery, as well as the use of recycled materials, are also important for the added value of the MPG's research buildings with regard to renovations and increased use through maintenance and repair.
