Government Construction Strategy (for England) • In May 2011, the UK Government published the • Construction Strategy aimed at reducing the cost of • public sector assets by up to 20% by 2016. The strategy • calls “for a profound change in the relationship • between public authorities and the construction • industry to ensure the Government consistently gets a • good deal and the country gets the social and economic • infrastructure it needs for the long-term”.
BIM strategy • Basic problems exist with procuring public assets, which • have been known for over 100 years, but little as yet • has been achieved in resolving them. The Construction • Strategy defines a number of strategic objectives, • which collectively will overcome these problems. In • particular, a strategic objective has been set to achieve • maturity Level 2 building information modelling (BIM) • on all public sector asset procurement, with equal • applicability to private sector building, infrastructure, • refurbishment and new-build projects. This will • address the problem of information that is inaccurate, • incomplete and ambiguous and results in unnecessary • additional capital delivery costs amounting to 20-25% –
Task Group’s work to date • BIM protocol • Work stages • PAS 1192:2 • BIM Task Group website • BIM Hubs
BIM Protocol • The key principles : • All parties should have the Protocol incorporated into their contract • The same version of the Protocol and Appendices should be incorporated into each contract. • The wording of the CIC BIM Protocol should not be amended • The Protocol should detail all Building Information Models that are going to be produced by all parties • The Appendices have to be completed with project specific information for all projects. This should be available from pre-appointment documentation such as the Employer’s Information Requirements. • Changes to the Protocol and its Appendices should be treated as variations to the Contract
PAS 1192:2 • The PAS includes: • Taxonomy of terms • References to other relevant BSI standards, CPI guidance and other documents • Definitions for Process and Data needs • Roles and Responsibilities • Sources for Key Templates for documents referenced in the PAS
