BIM: A global conversation / Learn from others (especially other sectors)

Customers not getting the outcomes they need / wanted?

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

Q: will it make the boat go faster?

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

Some BIM

Voodoo

It’s not a silver bullet

Keep it simple; our hypothesis is:BIMGovernment as a client can derive significant improvements in cost, value and carbon performance through the use of open sharable asset information

“Son, we’ve been doing this for 30 years. If there were a better way,

We would have had found it by now!”

Don’t put BIM in a box!

• 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

Part of an overall Construction Strategy

Create the right environment for BIM

Better the collaborative conditions the better the BIM outcomes

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.

Avoid the long‐grass

Leave the complexity to the supply chain – let them innovate

today through“Collaborative

Working”

Have 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
