What is the Problem? Why isn’t Industry Adopting BIM?

What Come First….?

No Work, Low Fees, No Investment

Ireland is Behind Other Countries in Adopting BIM…but we can Learn Their Lessons, and Move/Change Quickly

Government to Take an Active Role in Developing BIMBe Involved in the Discussion & ProcessDevelop a Local Capability to CompeteEncourage, Assist, Facilitate (Mandate?)Drive Reduction in Costs and WasteDrive Improvements in Performance

The Cost of BIM

BIM is a More Efficient Process, so Ultimately it will Costs Less

Initial Productivity Loss –

Training & Learning Time average 25% over 3 months –

add resources or time during this stage

Investment into Hardware, Software, Training €5,000-€10,000/person, spread over 4 Years = €10/working dayTechnical Salary & Overheads €60,000/year -

€250/working day25-50% Productivity Gains will Offset InvestmentUpfront Investment Challenge

Will this reduce Design Fees?Fees are Already LowMore Design Time = Better OutcomeFocus on Tackling 30% Waste, not 1% Fee

Debunking the Myths

BIM is new technology and not mature enough!

BIM requires too much upfront work!

It takes longer to develop a project in BIM!

BIM will effect tight programmes!

BIM is only for big projects or practices, not for SME’s!

BIM is not suited to small extensions or renovation projects!

There are no advantage unless everybody is doing BIM!

BIM is too disruptive!

BIM requires extensive changes to our contracts and procedures!

BIM poses significant legal issues!

Government as a client can derive significant improvements in reducing waste, controlling cost, increasing value and improved carbon performance through the use of BIM

Defined workload

Clear targets

Client utilisation




►

Buildings Cost Too Much to Build

►

Buildings Cost Too Much to Operate

►

Buildings responsible for 50% of CO2

Emissions

30% of the cost of construction is wasted in the field due to:

coordination errors

Rework

wasted material

labour inefficiencies

BIM can control costs by•

Reduced time –

delivering better quality design documents quicker

•

Reduced risk –

the more unknowns the more risk and potential costs

•

Increased co-ordination -

allows disciplines to see others work

•

Exposure of problems –

identify conflicts and omissions

•

Reduced errors –

develop solutions before they get to site

If BIM does not reduce time, risk and errors it is not worth the effort

Carbon BIG challenge

•

BIM can predict the performance of buildings or assess retrofit/upgrade options with precision

•

UK Government recommendation to implement BIM to deliver "Low Carbon Construction”

•

Compliments Ireland’s National Energy Efficiency Action Plan 20% by 2020

BIM a requirement on EU Projects

•

The Irish construction industry need to punch above their weight in securing EU projects

•

BIM is a necessary skill set for industry in securing EU project work

•

EU requiring IFC/BIM & sustainability standards in building projects

•

Compliments in Irish National Energy Efficiency Action Plan

•

Potential loss of Irish EU procured work to external EU companies

Requirement at April 2006 is that the carbon cost of the building, assessed in kgCO2/m2

shall be at least 20% lower than the equivalent test building by 2020.

Contracts

BIM Addendum to the standard forms of contract

Long Term -

IPD type of contact to maximize usage of BIM.

Conditions of Engagement

BIM Specification/Standards and Template BIM Execution Plan

Cost Planning/Control

Agreed “Method of Measurement”

for quantities derived from BIM

Guidance

Develop a Suite of Guidance Notes related to BIM




Challenges working with Traditional Contracts and PWCs

Present contracts based on a professional adversarial culture

By implication there will be disputes

Risk is pushed back to the contractor

Best use of BIM requires a more collegial culture of trust and co-operation

Need to have competent people to work on BIM

Emerging use of BIM Project Managers

Need for training and education of government procurement agencies

Moving towards an Integrated Project Delivery solution

Interests of project team members are aligned to a common goal

More of a strategic objective in 4/5 years time

Not as big an issue if people work at level 2 BIM

More D&B = More BIM

26

Recommendations

Strong endorsement and support for an Irish BIM council

International best practice

Government should intervene to stimulate use of BIM

Endorse use of international BIM standard (with minor amendments)

Reflect BIM methodologies in CMWF Guidelines

Introduce prequalification marking criteria for BIM methodologies

Start trialling BIM Use

Seek out interested groups/parties and select project(s)

Training and support critical for Government procurers

Consider taking a formal position on BIM−

Singapore –

Direct intervention−

UK –

Non-direct intervention
