HANDBOOK FOR THE INTRODUCTION OF BIM BY THE
EUROPEAN PUBLIC SECTOR (2017)

“The European construction sector output of

€130
€1.3tn (trillion) is approximately 9% of
the region’s GDP and it employs over 18
million people.”

“Reports estimate the financial opportunity

billion
for digitalising engineering, construction
and operations processes to be in the range
of 10%–20% of capital project
expenditure across vertical construction
(buildings) and infrastructure projects. Even
using the lower threshold, a 10%
productivity improvement of the
European construction sector would
generate savings of €130 billion.”

In the UK, information models exchanged with the appointing party, unless specified to the
contrary within the project information standard, should include:

a) geometrical information b) non-geometrical information in open c) documentation in

in proprietary formats or data formats, structured in accordance with open data formats.

THE CLIENT’S SECRET WEAPON
INFORMATION MANAGEMENT
SO WHAT IS AN INFORMATION MANAGER?
(CLIENT/EMPLOYER(1)/APPOINTING PARTY(2) SIDE)

• Help Clients understand overall strategic

understanding of possible benefits
• Discuss with Clients Asset
Management/FM team what they need
• Assist in the development of the Asset
Information Requirements (AIR) (3)
/Exchange Information Requirements
(EIR) (1/2)
• Validate all task team deliverables meet
all documented & agreed processes

(2) BS EN ISO19650-2:2018

(3) PAS1192-3:2014

31
SO WHAT IS AN INFORMATION MANAGER?
(DESIGN TEAM/TASK TEAM(1)/APPOINTED PARTY(2) SIDE)

• Help task team members understand

what they need to deliver i.e. what they
have signed up to !!
• Assist in the development of the BEP i.e.
they do not write this – collaborative
effort !
• Assist with the integration and export of
data
• Validation of all deliverables to meet
client requirement i.e. AIR/EIR & BEP
• Also monitor compliance of CDE i.e. file
naming, revision & status codes against Terminology:
TIDP (BS1192:2007+A2:2016/BS EN (1) PAS1192-2:2013
ISO19650-2:2018) (2) BS EN ISO19650-2:2018

32
SO WHAT DOESN’T AN INFORMATION MANAGER DO?

• They DO NOT do BIM Coordination or

Clash detection!
• ALL clash avoidance is the responsibility
of each Task Team member – refer to
PAS1192-2:2013 clauses 9.4.2-9.4.4 also
BS EN ISO19650-2:2018 clause 5.6.2 c)

BUILDING A SOLID BIM/DIGITAL/DATA FOUNDATION

• Understanding the clients needs – what

assets do they have? what data do they
need? how will they maintain this
information?
• A new skillset for the future – staff with
data science/coding/cyber security
backgrounds – Training & Support is key!
• All the data in the world –
collect/store/analysis only what you need
with a view to future proofing with
predictive data analytics
• Software Interoperability – Opensource
