	abstract = {This paper explores the integration of building information modeling into energy code compliance modeling, with a strong emphasis on uncovering both the opportunities and challenges for developing workflow automation solutions across three design phases: schematic design, design development, and construction document development. To achieve this, a workflow was established that leverages Revit, OpenStudio, and the OpenStudio Standards Performance Rating Method (OSSTD-PRM). Three BIM models of the Department of Energy medium office prototype building, representing distinct design phases, were created in Revit. The BIM models were converted into OpenStudio models using the Revit Systems Analysis tool. Baseline energy models were created from the OpenStudio models for each design phase via the use of OSSTD-PRM. Opportunities and challenges associated with this proposed workflow were analyzed by comparing the geometry, internal loads, and HVAC systems across the generated baseline models.},
