BIM: The UK Government

BIM: Defined

Sometimes it’s easier to say what BIM isn’t! • It’s not just 3D CAD • It’s not just a new technology application • It’s not next generation, it here and now! BIM is essentially value creating collaboration through the entire life-cycle of an asset, underpinned by the creation, collation and exchange of shared 3D models and intelligent, structured data attached to them. Ultimately

BIM lets us make better decisions that will help us create and maintain better assets.

BIM: A way of working

A smart way of thinking (“start to start”, not cradle to grave)

Purpose driven BIM

Q: will it make the boat go faster?

Start with the end in mind, will it give the customer a better asset?

Define the purpose Live the purpose

A Simple Assertion

Value creating

collaboration

BIM: A global conversation

Departments not getting the

outcomes they need / wanted?

BIM the key drivers!

Entering a new digital renaissance

One year on

An industry that becomes great at Buying and using data Data everywhere (mobile BIM) Leveraged at business and project level

UK Govt BIM Mandate:

An industry awoken

Darwin!

Offering new efficiencies Helping win work Lots of new acronyms! Thinking about data management

BIM: Why a Government intervention?

BIM

What is the UK BIM strategy?

• Pull (Government)

– Be good a buying data (as well as assets and services)

– Do it consistently

• Push (Supply Chain)

– Early Warning to Mobilise

– Training

– Methods & Documentation

• Deliver Level 2 BIM by 2016

IMPROVED VALUE FOR MONEY(£)

Part of an overall

Construction Strategy

2.32 Government will require

fully collaborative

3D BIM (with all project and asset

information, documentation

and data being electronic) as a

minimum by 2016. A staged

plan will be published with

mandated milestones showing

measurable progress at the

end of each year.

Level 2 BIM

Level 2 BIM

Flushed away some misconceptions

• It’s a fad / Morrellism • It’s only for £50M+ jobs • I’m an SME so it won’t affect me • It’s only some 3D they want • They will tell us how to do it • It’s a single model, call the lawyer • It’s from 2016, pleanty of time

One piece of advice, the secret to BIM Get STARTED, now!

The investment

A simple hypothesis

BIM

Government as a client

can derive significant

improvements in cost,

value and carbon

performance through

the use of open

sharable asset information

Creating the intelligent Client.

Purpose driven BIM English language questions / Complexity to the supply chain

I didn’t get

where I am

today through

“Collaborative

Working”

Greater understanding of the entire life-cycle process

(especially design intent) through the models: data and 3D

Better business outcomes through early collaborative decision making

“Mama always said

construction projects are like a

box of chocolates. You never

know what you’re gonna get.”

Asset design based on

outcomes + performance

as well as form!

Increased predictability

of performance through

more detailed asset and

life-cycle planning

Soft Landings

Government Soft Landings

• Ensuring that Soft Landings becomes standard for government projects.

• Early engagement during the design process with end users/client/FM

• Ownership post construction from design/construction team

• Appropriate handover process from construction to end user/FM

• Post Occupancy Evaluation/Monitoring and tie back

to ownership and lessons learnt for future design

So what to do?

• What does BIM mean to you

• Where will BIM bring you value (VP)

• Where will it bring your Clients added value

• What does that look like? Commercial overlay

• What am I doing already?

• How will it help me be more efficient?

• How will it help me win more work?

• What questions can BIM answer for me? When

• What behaviours will I have to change?

• What process will I have to change?

• What workflows are important to me?

• Will I need new software/hardware/training?

So what to do?

Identify your agents for change

Create a BIM Community Of Practice

Joints dots with others

Understand your supply chains capability

Help them get ready

What data do you need to create or

interchange?

Who manages your data?

What processes do you use for managing data?

Create a BIM strategy

Set outcomes based maturity plan

Use BIM PxPs
