Objectives
Civil Integrated Management (CIM) • NCHRP Research Project 10-96
3D Engineered Models: Schedule, Cost, and Post Construction, an EDC-3 technology
e-Construction, an EDC-3 technology
History: BIM, BRIM, CIM1, and now CIM2
Civil Integrated Management (CIM)
• The collection, organization, managed accessibility, and the use of accurate data and information throughout the life cycle of a transportation asset.
• The concept may be used by all affected parties for a wide range of purposes, including planning, environmental assessment, surveying, construction, maintenance, asset management, and risk assessment.

Holistic Program Understanding
How does your capital/asset management program function?
Who are the program stakeholders and how are they organized?
What are your short-term and long-term goals?
What legacy systems or Project Management Information System (PMIS) elements already exist?
Which are you planning to keep, replace, or upgrade?
How Does Your Program Function?

• Investment Required?
e-Construction Considerations
Buy-In
Is there a high-level directive?
Are you prepared to or have you already presented your business case?
Are all, most, some, any stakeholders on board? Management? IT? End Users?
Have you cleared all legislative hurdles?
e-Construction Considerations
Return on Investment
How will your quantify ROI?
What is this system going to cost?
How long will it take to achieve ROI?
How will it be budgeted?
e-Construction Considerations
Technical Capabilities
Who is on point to manage PMIS program?
Who is best qualified to perform and manage the technical aspects, including development,
programming, security, maintenance, etc., of the PMIS?
Is your internal staff experienced and equipped to handle the program?
e-Construction Considerations
External Support
What level of external support is required?
How will you develop your RFP for support services?
e-Construction Results
Moves towards a paperless and
sustainable system
Provides a single source of truth where
documents are stored exactly once and all parties use the same
version
Reduces time and cost Improves quality
