The constant increase in operating costs of data centers (DC) is the driving force behind innovations to increase their efficiency. Today, one of the newest ways to improve the design and functionality of data centers is the integration of building information modeling (BIM). The aim of the work is to analyze the possibilities of increasing the efficiency of the data center design stage based on the use of BIM-technologies, and the task is to design data center systems of all levels of certification of the Uptime Institute. The integration of the capabilities of BIM-technologies during design increases the efficiency of both the general design of the facility and special design indicators of data centers. This article sets out the basics of integrating BIM and data centers, a working mechanism for their interaction when designing the required level of functionality of the Uptime Institute with the design, as well as the possibility of using BIM-data from the design stage in the subsequent stages of installation and operation.
