What is BIM?
BIM is ‘Building Information Modelling’
• A collaborative process of virtual design, construction and management of buildings
• The use of BIM unites design phase; construction phase and post construction phases including facility management.
• It means understanding and controlling the data flow through these phases, ensuring leanness in its handling and therefore driving efficiency.
• If we make the construction process more efficient and eliminate uncertainties before construction, we can drive down cost
4D Time (Phasing/Sequencing)
5D Cost. (Measuring/Estimating)
6D Life Cycle. (Building Owner / FM)
And the list goes on...

Why BIM?
Reduce Operation Costs
Most of a buildings cost is in it’s operation
Design Construct Operate
£1=£10=£100
Why from the Government?
Digital Leaders
Inefficient Industry
UK construction costs 20% more than Europe
Singapore takes ½ hour to register a planning application
All US projects have to be delivered in BIM
Zero Change contracts now possible
2016 All Government projects to be Level 2 Shared BIM
• A shared knowledge resource to support decision-making
• Improved coordination
• Increased efficiency
• Better decisions
“A model should provide access to all graphic and non graphic information about a building, as an integrated resource”
