Abstract: A facility management system and method for planning and/or controlling a facility, in particular a fabrication facility, including a plurality of components. The facility management system includes at least one apparatus adapted to load component data object cubes (CDOCs) from a data cube library (DCL) stored in a database of the facility management system and to link the component data object cubes (CDOCs) to component data objects (CDOs) representing components of the facility. The loaded component data object cubes (CDOCs) linked to the component data objects (CDOs) include parameters of the respective components and are editable in a data edit model of the facility management system.
