Overview of BIM implementation including Government perspective
Construction Yorkshire ThinkBIM Seminar
Key areas to cover today
• Some definitions
• Why do we need it / what does it do / who is it for?
• Where are we coming from / going to?
• Who is dealing with this in Government?
• How much is it being adopted?
• What’s in it for ‘me’ ?
• What’s happening in Y&H
What is BIM? A definition • BIM is the process of generating and managing
information about a building during its entire life cycle. BIM is a suite of technologies and processes that integrate to form the ‘system’ at the heart of which is a component-based 3D representation of each building element. This replaces traditional design tools currently in use.
• Each component is generated from a product library and can have embedded information about the product and its placement, material, specification, fire rating, U-value, fittings, finishes, costs, ‘carbon content’ and any special requirements, which is stored in the system.
• “The term BIM is to an extent limiting; it is not all about buildings with walls and roofs, we need to include roads, bridges, railways, process plants and infrastructure.”
Model
Data
Information (2D)
Why do it?
“……..using the best available technology to do things faster and better, eliminate waste and repeated work at the interfaces. To drive out the inefficiencies we need to normalise data, enter information once and reuse it many times, turning data into an asset. It could be as simple as entering the name and address of a supplier once in a single place at the inception of a project” Dick Barker (Privica/Laing O’Rourke)

Key Benefits of BIM: Early cost certainty
Reduced delivery costs Reduced operational costs
Green performance Reduced risk
Predictable planning
Who should use BIM? Contractors Architects Designers Structural engineers Building Services Engineers Cost consultants Manufacturers Clients
Prototyping
Enables modularity
Delivers fit and improved productivity
How can it help us do things better?

Planning/scheduling
How can the constructor use the information in the model?
How can BIM data be used?
Evolution Not Revolution Bew Richards BIM Maturity diagram
The majority of the UK market is still working with Level 1 processes, and the best in class are experiencing significant benefits by moving to Level 2

Govt Hypothesis
“Government as a client can derive significant improvements in cost, value
and carbon performance through the use of open sharable asset
information”
Courtesy BIS
Government Policy
(2.30) “A lack of compatible systems, standards and protocols, and the differing requirements of clients and designers, have inhibited widespread adoption of a technology which has the capacity to ensure that all team members are working from the same data”
Government will require fully collaborative 3D BIM (with all project and asset information, documentation and data being electronic) as a minimum by 2016.
What is the (HMG) Strategy? • Pull (Government)
– Be good at buying data (as well as assets and services)
– Do it consistently – Leave the “How” to the Supply Chain
• Push (Supply Chain) – Early Warning to Mobilise – Training – Methods & Documentation
• Deliver Level 2 BIM by 2016
PUSH PULL
PROJECT
How can we make it easier for the supply chain to move forward?
But not force or distort the market?
• Contracts• Training• Technology• Legal's
How do we ensure we get the information we need to operate the Asset we have bought?
How do we gather the information we need to manage the asset?
How do we make it fair so we don’t force or distort the market?
• Make it clear what we want • When we want it• Collect it electronically• Keep it simple to start

Does the brief meet my requirements in terms of function, cost and carbon?
Has anything changed?What is being priced by the main contractor?
Has anything changed?Has the design been over value engineered?
Did I get what I asked for?Data to effectively manage my asset
Data and information to manage the asset base in a safe, clean and cost effective manner.
Data drops (N) will be provided as often as is necessary, reflecting notifiable changes to the asset either through maintenance or re-purposing
Transparency and clear availability of information to proactively managed cost and carbon performance of the asset.
Easy presentation of HMG reporting systems for future planning and performance management

Anticipated Savings
CIC
How will it fit into the process?
What are the benefits?
• Better communication • Earlier decision making • Review and clash detect • Improved design coordination • Integrated approach to project delivery • Rapid take-off of geometric properties • Linking construction planning to model
timeline (4D) up to 15% savings • Link to Cost (5D) and automated
materials scheduling
“what’s in it for me?” • Better visualisation of design and end product • Design and interfaces more easily articulated in 3D
– Both leading to improved customer satisfaction • Resulting in better ‘fit’, less site work and greater
programme certainty • Construction methodology can be tested in ‘prototype’
leading to smoother delivery (“build twice – once virtually - then for real”) – Reduced site costs, disruption – Programme optimisation
• Ability to better forecast costs and interrogate budgets • Asset rich information handed over to client / FM on
completion within the model • Government driven policy – MoJ framework
Leeds leading? • Resulting from work in and around Leeds Met, thinkBIM
and CSN, we are starting to be at the centre of things in the UK
• Meeting held and promoted by Leeds at DLA Piper in London Dec 2011 with most leading insurers attending
• Leeds Met founder members of UK BIM Academic Forum • Government recognition for leading work in dealing with
Insurance and Legal issues around BIM • Task group set up to deal with key issues – stage 1 –
develop standard BIM ‘protocols’ etc.
Top tips • Start at the beginning • Review your business objectives / goals • Understand your supply chain • Gather knowledge on the process and
various technology • Speak to vendors • Get involved!
“what is the next step?” • Understand your supply chain capabilities / constraints • Get to use the software – several free BIM viewers
available e.g.
• Join ThinkBIM and share concerns / knowledge • ThinkBIM and CSN agenda moving towards education
and training • SME toolkit / diagnostics in development early 2012 • Standard BIM protocols - ditto
BIM in 123 words BIM is an acronym for Building Information Modelling,
or Building Information Model. It describes the process of designing a building collaboratively using one coherent system of computer models rather than as separate sets of drawings. Don’t be misled by the word ‘building’ – BIM is just as relevant to the civil engineering sector. It offers enormous gains in saving in cost and time, much greater accuracy in estimation, and the avoidance of error, alterations and rework due to information loss. But adopting BIM involves much more than simply changing the software we use. To achieve all the benefits it offers, everyone in the architecture, engineering and construction industries will have to learn to work in fundamentally new ways. BIM is a whole new paradigm.
